US President Joe Biden welcomes President-elect Donald Trump to the White House for an Oval Office visit that’s a traditional part of the peaceful handoff of power — a ritual Trump himself declined to participate in four years ago.

Meanwhile, House control remains in the balance with a dozen races left to be called.

Biden greets Trump with a handshake in the Oval Office, each pledging a smooth transition from Democrat to Republican.

Biden congratulates Trump. Trump says “politics is tough” and not always a nice world “but it is a nice world today.”
