After much anticipation, the United States, US, President-elect, Donald Trump has returned to the White House.

Trump met with President Joe Biden at the White House on Wednesday.

He walked into the White House triumphantly for the first time in four years to meet Biden.

Biden invited Trump for the traditional visit, a show of the coming Jan. 20 peaceful transfer of power in the American democracy between the current U.S. leader and the incoming chief executive.

But the Biden-Trump get-together is rife with political tension.

Biden, a Democrat who ran for reelection for some time, sought to defeat Trump, the Republican, before ending his campaign in July after faltering badly in a debate.

Biden quickly endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, to succeed him.

Kamala, however, failed to defeat Trump at the polls as the former president won by a wide margin.

When Biden defeated Trump in 2020, Trump offered no White House invitation to meet him ahead of the inauguration and then left Washington two hours before Biden’s swearing-in on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.
