United States President Donald Trump has finally agreed to transfer power to President-Elect Joe Biden.

Trump made the pledged in a statement on Thursday shortly after Congress confirmed Biden’s victory.

The statement read: “Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless, there will be an orderly transition on January 20th. I have always said we would continue our fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted.

“While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it’s only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again.”

Biden won the November 3 election with 81,283,098 votes after flipping some Republican strongholds, leaving Trump with 74,222,958 votes.

On December 14, the electoral college voted just as the states’ ballot went, handing Biden the 306 votes while Trump got 232 votes.

Trump had repeatedly denied his loss to Biden and claimed the election was rigged.

On Wednesday, his supporters stormed the Congress and Capitol Hill to stop the certification of the election results.

While addressing his supporters, he vowed to keep fighting his defeat.

“We will never concede,” the US president had told the crowd, adding, “you don’t concede when there’s theft.”

He had also said: “This year, they rigged an election. They rigged it like they’ve never rigged an election before.

“All of us here today do not want to see our election victory stolen by emboldened radical left Democrats, which is what they’re doing and stolen by the fake news media. That’s what they’ve done and what they’re doing.

“We will never give up. We will never concede, it doesn’t happen. You don’t concede when there’s theft involved.”
