Watch: Biden addresses the nation to discuss Trump election win

President Joe Biden will address the nation Wednesday morning to discuss Vice President Kamala Harris' loss of the 2024 election and president-elect Donald Trump's upcoming transition into power. Biden congratulated Trump on his victory over the phone Wednesday and invited him to the White House to discuss the presidential transition period – an offer Trump refused to extend to Biden after the 2020 race. A meeting date has not been revealed yet as staff coordinate one in the near future. "President Biden expressed his commitment to ensuring a smooth transition and emphasized the importance of working to bring the country together," the White House said in a statement.
