Joe Biden Just Beat Donald Trump in the 2020 Election
After days of ballot counting (and anxiety!) the former VP beat 45's chances for another term in office.
After a roller coaster of a term in the Oval Office, Republican incumbent Donald Trump's hopes of another four years in office were squashed when former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden beat him in the 2020 presidential election.
\u201cJOE BIDEN DEFEATS PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP \n\nThe Associated Press declares Joe Biden the winner of a grueling campaign for the American presidency. He will lead a polarized nation through a historic collision of health, economic and social crises. \n\n#APracecall\u201d— The Associated Press (@The Associated Press) 1604766491
The Associated Press and other national news outlets called the win for Biden after he and vice presidential pick Kamala Harris (who will be the first woman of color to hold the office of VP in American history!) were projected to secure Pennsylvania's electoral votes in what was a super tight race.
Considering the madness that has ensued ever since he took office in 2017, like the harmful, awful anti-trans/anti-LGBTQ+ track record his administration has, people everywhere we celebrating:

\u201cHere\u2019s a few seconds of the collective scream of joy all over New York City.\u201d— elizabeth (@elizabeth) 1604767051
\u201cMy god it feels like I just took off a weighted blanket, unhooked my bra and taken out my extensions all at once\u201d— chrissy teigen (@chrissy teigen) 1604769255
\u201cThat was a perfect series finale after watching the most bizarre reality show over the past 4 years. \ud83d\udc99\n\n\u201cHuge ratings, tremendous turnout, big numbers, a lot of votes.\u201d\u201d— Derrick Barry (@Derrick Barry) 1604769220
After years of darkness and despair, in the relieved words of Ariana Grande, "the light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole!"
