President Joe Biden welcomed President-elect Donald Trump back to the White House on Wednesday and congratulated him on his landslide victory.
President Trump's historic visit to the White House is his first since 2021 and serves as a visual contrast to his two-time political rival over the past five years.
“Now then, President-elect Donald and former President Donald, Congratulations” Biden said while shaking Trump’s hand.
President Trump responded, “Thank you.”
