The Transfer of Power

The Transfer of Power

Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. has been officially declared the 46th president of the United States by the Electoral College. After a hectic campaign and after-election events — everything from recounting votes in key states, to overturning lawsuits pushed by the Trump campaign — there should be no doubt that on Jan. 20, 2021, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be sworn in as President and Vice-President, respectively, of the United States. The question now lies in what will happen moving forward, mainly regarding Biden’s cabinet picks, and what one-term presidency of Donald Trump means for the future of the Republican party.
