Joe Biden Trump Meeting: US President Joe Biden and Donald Trump met at the White House today. This was his first meeting with Joe Biden after Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election. In this meeting held in the Oval Office, both the leaders met warmly and shook hands. Joe Biden congratulated Donald Trump on his victory in the presidential election. During this, both the leaders pledged a smooth transfer of power as per American tradition. In a brief meeting, both the leaders assured the country of a peaceful transfer of power on January 20 next year.

Politics is tough: Trump.

Trump said that “politics is tough and not always a good world, but today it is a good world.” Actually, this meeting is a traditional part of the peaceful transfer of power. However, earlier in his last term, Donald Trump himself had refused to meet Joe Biden in this traditional meeting. 

 Hope for a smooth transition: Biden.

The two leaders sat in yellow chairs in front of a fireplace at the White House. Biden told Trump that his team would “do everything possible to make sure you’re comfortable” and have everything you need. “Congratulations and I look forward to a smooth transition,” Biden said.

 

 

Trump responded, “Politics is tough and it’s not, in many respects, a very nice world, but it’s a nice world today and that’s a change I’m very appreciative of.” White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients and new Chief of Staff Susie Wiles are attending the meeting.
