Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that following the electors meeting yesterday, “as of this morning, our country officially has a president-elect and a vice president elect.”
“The Electoral College has spoken,” he said. Adding: “Today I want to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden.”
He made the remark after talking about the Trump presidency in the past tense, touting the current administration’s accomplishments, including the country’s “economic prosperity” and “foreign policy,” judicial appointments, and “bold regulatory changes” in a speech from the Senate floor.
“It would take far more than one speech to catalogue all the major wins the Trump administration has helped deliver for the American people. The outsider who swore he would shake up Washington and lead our country to new accomplishments, both at home and abroad proceeded to do exactly that. President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence deserve our thanks and our gratitude for their tireless work and their essential roles in all these victories and in many more,” he said.
