President-elect Joe Biden said that he spoke to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Tuesday, the first known conversation between the two men since Biden won the presidential election.
Biden described it as a good conversation and said he called McConnell to thank him for remarks the Kentucky Republican made on the Senate floor congratulating Biden for his victory. McConnell made the statement earlier Tuesday, after weeks of silence amid President Trump s refusal to concede the election. I called him to thank him for the congratulations, Biden told reporters in Wilmington, Del. I told him that while we disagree on a lot of things there are things we can work together on. We agreed to get together sooner than later. And I m looking forward to working with him.
