Joe Biden will be swornn iin as the 46th Presiident of the Uniited Statess on Januarry 20..
The last impressions of Trump's presidency are being erased from the White House so that the newly elected president, Joe Biden, can move here as soon as he takes office.
All White House desks have been evacuated, and rooms have been thoroughly cleaned so that the newly elected president can begin his work immediately with a new team of aides and advisers.
This is a big part of the post-election transition process in the United States, which will help the new government take over the reins of power.
Stephen Miller, a key Trump administration official, was living in the western part of the White House one evening last week.
Miller, who has been instrumental in shaping President Trump's policies and writing his speeches since day one, has been one of the few people on Donald Trump's initial team who will stay with him until the end.
Bill Clinton's novel on White House life
What can Presiident Trump doo iin the future after leaving thee Whiite House..????
How do you live after the White House.???
He did not appear to be in a hurry to talk to his colleagues about scheduling a meeting against the wall...The western part of the White House, which is usually quite lively and busy, looked deserted. The phones were off. Papers and unopened letters were scattered on the desks in all the offices and it seemed that the officers working in these offices had left everything in a hurry and were not coming back.
Dozens of senior officials and aides resigned after the January 6 attack on Capitol Hill.
At the end of the conversation, when Miller separated from his colleagues and started walking back, I asked him what his next destination would be. He replied with a smile, 'My office' Went to the office.
It's very difficult
On the day of the swearing-in, Miller's office should be clean and free of all signs so that Biden's team can start their work here and not feel like anyone else has ever worked here before.
Cleaning the western part of the White House every four years in this manner has always been an important part of the more than two centuries of political transition in the United States.
This is a stage that does not always involve warmth.
In 1869, another Democratic president, Andrew Johnson, who had been indicted, refused to attend the inauguration of Ulysses S. Grant. Grant, who supported Johnson's ouster, was not surprised by the reaction.
This year, the whole process of power transfer has become very bitter. The process usually begins immediately after the election, but this time it was delayed because President Trump refused to recognize the results. President Trump has refused to attend the swearing-in ceremony and may travel to the Marlago Club in Florida.
But as in the past, power is still shifting from one hand to the other.
The system is working said Sean Wenletz, a professor of history at Princeton University. The road is very rough, there are a lot of tremors but there is still a transfer of power.President Trump first posted a picture of Andrew Jackson, the most popular president of the United States, in the Oval Office as he moved into the White House.
But even in the happiest of times, the transfer of power is a huge undertaking, involving the massive transfer of all information and government personnel.
Stephen Miller was one of more than 4,000 political appointees made by the Trump administration whose jobs will now be cut and Joe Biden will bring his people.
According to the Washington-based Center for Presidential Transition, between 1.5 million and 300,000 people apply for jobs during the transition in the United States. There are about 1100 such appointments which have to be ratified by the Senate. Recruitment for all these positions takes months and sometimes even years.
Four-year policy documents, briefings and other sensitive items are packed in boxes and delivered to the National Archives, where they are kept secret for 12 years until the president himself decides which of them There is nothing wrong with publishing documents.Kelly McKinney, President Trump's press secretary, was highly trained, careful to speak, and knew how to control her anger even when faced with the toughest questions.
The journey ahead
The door to President Trump's press secretary, Kelly McKinney, was half-open one evening last week. McKinney was one of the leaders defending the president. Highly trained, careful in speaking, she knew how to control her anger even when faced with the toughest and most bitter questions.
Even though she was preparing to leave, her office still looked very organized.
Kate Anderson Brewer, author of a book on the White House, says the last few days have usually been organized
White House furniture, including the Oval Office's resolution desk, lots of wall paintings, sugar containers and many other items are state-owned and go nowhere.
But many other things, including pictures of the president hanging in corridors, are removed to accommodate new occupants.
A female White House staffer was taking pictures of First Lady Melania Trump from the east.
These gigantic images, which are called 'jumbo' because of their size, will be kept in the National Archives, according to the woman.
The personal belongings of President Trump and his family, including clothing, jewelry and other items, will be moved to Mar Algo, Florida.
This time the White House will be specially cleaned.
Dozens of White House staffers, including the president and Miller, have been infected with the corona virus over the past several months, which will require the White House to clean and disinfect six floors and 132 rooms Will go
A spokesman for the General Services Administration said everything from elevator buttons and door handles in the White House would be cleaned and disinfected.
As soon as President Trump moved into the White House, he first posted a picture of the most popular President of the United States, Andrew Jackson, in the Oval Office. They also changed the curtains, sofas and carpets.
On the day of the inauguration, Vice President Mike Pence will also vacate the 19th-century official residence for newly elected Vice President Kamala Harris, a few miles from the White House.
