TIL Desk/World/Washington/ US President Donald Trump has finally given a go-ahead to begin the transition process for president-elect Joe Biden after the state of Michigan certified the Democratic leader’s victory in the November 3 presidential election, paving the way for a smooth handover of power after weeks of delay.
President Trump, a Republican, however, did not formally concede the election to Biden, saying he would “continue to fight and will prevail.” He has launched a slew of lawsuits in key states, but has not provided any evidence to back his claims of electoral fraud. Many of the lawsuits have been dismissed by courts. On Monday, the Administrator of the General Services Administration (GSA) Emily Murphy informed Biden in a letter that the Trump administration is ready to begin the formal transition process.
The letter from Murphy, a Trump appointee, is the first step the administration has taken to acknowledge President Trump”s defeat, more than two weeks after Biden was declared the winner. Taking to Twitter after Murphy wrote to Biden, Trump said that he has asked to begin the transition process in the best interest of the country.
