The US Parliament has formally confirmed the victory of Republican candidate Donald Trump in the presidential election. In the elections held in November last year, Trump defeated Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris. On Monday, the Parliament confirmed Trump's victory. This has cleared the way for his swearing-in on January 20. This will be his second term.

The results of the elections in 50 states and the District of Columbia were confirmed during a brief and formal meeting of the House of Representatives and the Senate.

The meeting, presided over by Vice President Kamala Harris, in her role as Senate president, was a far cry from the ritual of four years ago, when a mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in a failed attempt to stop the certification of his defeat to Joe Biden.

Trump will pardon the rioters

This program witnessed the extraordinary fact that the candidate who tried to overturn the last election won this time and is returning to power legally. According to ANI, Donald Trump may pardon the people who created a ruckus in Capitol Hill i.e. Parliament complex on January 6, 2021. Trump supporters attacked the Parliament when the formalities of sealing Joe Biden's victory were being completed in the House.
