President Biden will host President-elect Donald Trump in the Oval Office Wednesday for a traditional post-election meeting, according to the White House.
Although such meetings are customary between outgoing and incoming presidents to give the appearance of a peaceful transfer of power, Trump didn’t host his Democratic rival for such a sit-down in 2020 after Trump lost a re-election bid to Biden.
Biden called Trump this past Wednesday to congratulate him for beating Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in Tuesday’s general election and invited him to meet in the Oval Office, the White House said Saturday. Their upcoming meeting is slated for 11 a.m.
Trump is the first former president to return to power since Grover Cleveland regained the White House in the 1892 election.
