Washington DC, January 07: After the crating high voltage drama, finally United States President Donald Trump conceded defeat in last year’s presidential election on Thursday. Accepting his defeat he affirms Biden's win. He released a statement in that he commits that there will be an orderly transition of power on January 20.
In a statement released on the Twitter page of the White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Trump said he "totally disagreed with the outcome of the election" but confirmed, "there will be an orderly transition on January 20th."
In the letter, he said, "Even though I disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless, there will be an orderly transition on January 20th. I have always said we would continue our fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted."
“While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it’s only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again,” he stated.
The statement was posted on social media by senior White House aide Dan Scavino since Twitter and Facebook temporarily blocked the President.
The statement came soon after a joint session of the US Congress certified Democrat Joe Biden’s victory in the US Presidential Election held in November last year. Biden is set to take over as US president on January 20.
