HistoryNow: Biden Elected

The election is seemingly over, although there is still a great deal of procedure yet for the government to complete before Biden can take the oath of office on January 21st, 2021. There are also lawsuits that President Trump has filed in multiple states, but most legal experts seem to think they’ll have no impact on the final result even if the courts are favorable to Trump’s litigation.
Biden gave the traditional I’m the President of every American speech. The “Uniter not a Divider” speech. George Bush famously gave that speech back in 2000, also after a bitterly contested Election Day. Only time will tell. Personally I believe our nation so divided already that uniting won’t be easy. Bush didn’t succeed beyond the nation coming together after 9/11. Biden has COVID-19, but even 9/11 turned political and COVID-19 has been political since day 1. Which brings me back to “only time will tell.”
