The US elections have already been called for Biden and Harris. I thought, at last, decency won over rudeness. I don't want to say good won over bad because those can be interpreted as absolutes and both parties have their fair share of 'goods' and 'bads' in recent years and throughout their history. But out and good riddance to a hustler, fake new mongerer and anti-science administrator. I'm sharing the graphic from the New York Times.
I guess a lot of people who have been hoping this would turn the tide for the world (yes, America's global influence is still intact despite the chipping all the past 4 years). The incoming administration, for example, has committed to returning to the climate talks and foreign policy will definitely be changing. There is so much being expected for their economic recovery that will also have an effect on how the rest of the world's economies will perform. But first things first should be actions pertaining to Covid-19, which should be among the top priorities if not the top one. For now though, many people can rest and be hopeful again while other need to ponder about how to embrace the change they all wanted to impose on others if the other party won reelection. The world is watching and perhaps taking its cue from this event.
