Biden greets Trump at White House with two-word message: ‘Welcome home’
President Biden warmly welcomed President-elect Trump to the White House on Monday with a simple yet powerful message: “Welcome home.” As Trump and his wife, Melania Trump, arrived at the White House, Biden’s shout of greeting set a positive tone for their meeting.
The two couples posed for photos but did not engage with the press as they made their way into the White House for a private tea. After the tea concluded, Biden and Trump rode together in a motorcade to the Capitol for the inauguration ceremony where Trump would be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States.
This gesture of welcome marked a stark contrast to the tense atmosphere of the June debate between Biden and Trump, which ultimately led to Biden suspending his re-election campaign and Vice President Kamala Harris taking his place on the ticket. Trump faced his own challenges, surviving an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in July, which shook the 2024 election cycle.
Despite the rocky road to this moment, the meeting between Biden and Trump was cordial and marked by mutual respect. The “welcome home” message echoed the sentiment of their previous meeting in the Oval Office following Trump’s victory over Harris.
As the new administration takes shape, the focus shifts to the challenges and opportunities ahead. With the transfer of power complete, all eyes are on the future and the work that lies ahead for President Trump and his team.
