Despite President Donald Trump’s objections the United States of America has the new president elect Joe Biden who is getting ready to take over the white house in about two months’ time. Biden won the race for the White House on Saturday, but compared with what lies ahead, that may have been the easy part. In his first address to the nation, the president-elect said he would unveil a group of scientists and experts on Monday to help him craft a plan to tackle the coronavirus pandemic and its economic fallout. Trump has meanwhile threatened a court battle challenging the election results. Biden has been elected as the 46th president of the US.
