United States President Donald Trump on Monday conceded to the transition process of President-elect Joe Biden into the presidential office. Trump said he was no longer opposed to government aid for the Democrat politician’s transition team. This is the first time the American president indicated that he would have to step down.
In a tweet, Trump wrote that the General Services Administration should “do what needs to be done” after the agency’s head Emily Murphy said she was releasing the long-awaited aid.
“I want to thank Emily Murphy at GSA for her steadfast dedication and loyalty to our Country,” he tweeted. “She has been harassed, threatened, and abused – and I do not want to see this happen to her, her family, or employees of GSA.”
Trump said that his campaign team’s cases challenging election outcomes in certain parts would continue. “I believe we will prevail,” he wrote in another tweet. “Nevertheless, in the best interest of our Country, I am recommending that Emily and her team do what needs to be done with regard to initial protocols, and have told my team to do the same.”
This will provide financial assistance in the transition process as well as allow Biden to coordinate with current government officials....
