WHAT LIES AHEAD OF THE DEMOCRATS: HOPES OR CHALLENGES?
Northeast Today|December 2020
The 2020 US Election was one of the dramatic affairs that the world has witnessed. President-elect Joe Biden swept the election with a majority, while the incumbent President Donald Trump was busy making baseless claims against Biden over election fraud. Biden who will be joining the White House in January has a lot of clutter to be cleared. Americans along with the world are hopeful of his leadership, however, with four years of Trump’s mismanagement, it would be crucial to see whether he stands up to the expectations or it becomes a mere burden on him.

WHAT LIES AHEAD OF THE DEMOCRATS: HOPES OR CHALLENGES?

Contrasting leaders

77-year-old Biden will be the 46th President of America. The veteran Democratic politician after several news outlets projected him as the winner pledged that he would act as a unifier and not as a divider. “I pledge to be a president who does not see red or blue states, but United States,” Biden said to his supporters. He further added that “This is the time to heal America. Let this grim era of demonization in America begin to end, here and now.” Biden who was mostly seen with his mask on even during campaign trails talked about unity and inclusiveness whilst removing systemic racism, fighting COVID-19 and rebuilding the economy. On the contrary, the Republican incumbent President Trump who was known for his divisive policies had to taste the dust. His promise to “Make America Great Again”, could not lure voters as they believed that he was not the right man to lead the country forward.
