President-elect Donald Trump told The Post Wednesday that he and President Biden “both really enjoyed seeing each other” when they sat down for a historic post-election get-together in the Oval Office.
“You know, it’s been a long, it’s been a long slog,” the 78-year-old said during a phone interview as he left Washington.
“It’s been a lot of work on both sides and he did a very good job with respect to campaigning and everything else. We really had a really good meeting.”
“We got to know each other again.”
The last two presidents of the United States discussed the transition of power on Jan. 20, with Trump telling Biden in front of the world’s press that it would be “as smooth as can be” following the Republican’s attempt to contest the results four years ago that culminated in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
“It’s going very smoothly,” Trump told The Post of the process of picking officials for his second term, adding that the Republican transition team and the Biden White House enjoy a “very, very good relationship.”
The president-elect added that he and Biden did discuss two issues on which they have differed in the past: the war in Ukraine, which Trump has promised to end almost immediately upon taking office; and the ongoing war in the Middle East.
“I wanted — I asked for his views and he gave them to me,” Trump told The Post.
“Also, we talked very much about the Middle East, likewise. I wanted to know his views on where we are and what what he thinks. And he gave them to me, he was very gracious.”
Trump also revealed that he and Biden are expecting to see each other again just before his inauguration, which the Democratic incumbent has already said he would attend.
“The Oval Office is so beautiful and I do certainly look forward [to coming back],” he said.
all of them in government are crooks. Trump is one of the smarter ones and the best choice at this time to put america back on track.
