On Wednesday, the Trump presidency was finally scheduled to end, and President-elect Joe Biden was slated to take Donald’s place as chief executive of the United States. Trump’s exit from the White House — which he actually left in the early hours of Wednesday morning, well before Biden’s actual inauguration — marks the end of four years of presidency-sponsored division and hatred across America. On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton — who Trump repeatedly obsessed over at various points of his presidency — celebrated the incoming Biden administration with a pair of Twitter messages.
Alongside a photo of herself with the Bidens, she commented as follows:
‘So excited to call these two wonderful people “Mr. President” and “Dr. Biden.”’

And alongside a photo of Harris with a couple of her young relatives, Hillary added the following message:
‘It delights me to think that what feels historical and amazing to us today—a woman sworn in to the vice presidency—will seem normal, obvious, “of course” to Kamala’s grand-nieces as they grow up. And they will be right.’

Clinton herself, of course, was the first woman to receive a presidential nomination from either of the two major parties, and she came close to winning, but not close enough. Moving from the Trump era into the Biden administration will mark a move away from vitriol and hatred backed by the White House — while Trump repeatedly publicly complained about so-called Democrat-run states, Biden has already publicly established that he hopes to work for the betterment of all Americans, not just those who voted for him in the recent presidential election. Biden’s sentiment, of course, seems pretty fundamental for a president of the United States, but Trump failed on that front as well.
On Wednesday, after taking the oath of office, Biden planned to take 17 executive actions to begin undoing the harmful impacts of the Trump presidency, according to a CNN report. These planned steps included the cancellation of a national emergency declaration that Trump signed over the situation at the southern border, which the outgoing administration used as a cover to secure funding for border wall construction. Biden also, among other steps, planned to rejoin the Paris climate deal and reverse the Trump administration’s planned withdrawal from the World Health Organization.
