Biden’s transition lists 4 priorities: COVID-19, economic recovery, racial equity, and climate change.
“The team that is forming will face these demanding situations from day one,” he said in a reference to January 20, 2021, when Biden will take the oath of office as the 46th president of the United States.
Biden, who will be on November 20, is the 1st user ever chosen for the White House. Harris, 56, a California senator, is the first woman, the first black user, and the first South Asian user to be elected vice president.
Biden plans to appoint a working group Monday to combat the coronavirus pandemic, which has killed more than 237,000 people in the United States and is wreaking havoc across the country.
He also announced his goal of subscribing to the Paris weather deal and would include an executive order on the first day of his term that would reinstate Trump’s ban on predominantly Muslim countries.
Biden has promised to appoint a closet that reflects the country’s diversity, although he may have difficulty getting more progressive nominations approved if Republicans retain the Senate, a result that will feature two second-round elections in Georgia in January.
Biden, who after John F. Kennedy is just the Catholic moment to be elected president of the United States, went to church Sunday morning in Wilmington, Delaware.
He also visited the graves of his son, Beau Biden, who died of brain cancer in 2015, and his first wife and daughter, who died in a car accident in 1972.
Trump’s crusade has arranged legal lawsuits for effect in several states, but no evidence has emerged of widespread irregularities that may be just the effects.
Giuliani told Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures” that the Trump team would sue Monday in Pennsylvania for “violation of civil rights, for organizing unfair elections (and) for violating state law. “
“The first trial will be Pennsylvania, The moment will be Michigan or Georgia. And the week, we deserve to put it all together,” Giuliani said.
First lady Melania Trump also traded on Sunday, tweeting: “Other Americans deserve fair elections. Every legal vote, not illegal, will have to be counted. “
Speaking Sunday about CNN’s “State of the Union,” Biden’s senior adviser, Symone Sanders, calls for “unfounded legal strategies. “
Biden won nearly 74. 6 million votes over 70. 4 million Trumps across the country and has a 279-214 lead in the electoral college that regulates the presidency.
Biden also leads in Arizona, which has 11 electoral votes, and Georgia, which is 16. If he wins both, he would with 306 electoral votes, the same thing Trump won overall in 2016 when he disappointed Hillary Clinton.
Only two Republican senators, Mitt Romney and Lisa Murkowski, congratulated Biden.
Democratic Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina said the Republican Party had a “responsibility” to help convince Trump that it was time to resign.
Romney, who voted to convict Trump in his political trial, said the president will “accept the inevitable. “
The Senator of Utah added that “I would prefer the world to attend a more elegant outing, but it is not in the nature of man. “
Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a Trump ally, said the 74-year-old president is still fighting.
“We’ll work with Biden if he wins, but Trump has lost,” Graham said on Fox News. “Don’t give in, Mr. President. Fight hard. “
In a victory speech Saturday, Biden promised to unify the bitterly divided country and approached Trump supporters saying, “These are our enemies, they are Americans. “
“Let’s give ourselves a chance, ” he said. May this dark era of demonization in America begin to end, here and now. “
Financial markets praised Biden’s victory, with emerging stocks in Tokyo and Hong Kong, and future Americans on Wall Street on Sunday night.
Leaders from Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and other European countries congratulated Biden, such as Australia, Canada, India, Indonesia, Israel, Japan and South Korea.
Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said he would wait for all situations of legal demand to be resolved, while Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, a best friend of Trump’s, has yet to make any official comments.
