USA under Trump: For the first time since 1982: Democrat wins a Senate seat in Mississippi

For the first time since 1982, a Democrat has gained a Senate seat in Mississippi, as reported by the New York Times. This development comes as President Donald Trump praised incoming President Joe Biden in a January 2021 letter, commending his love for the American people and his potential impact on American history. Trump, known for his criticism of Biden's governing style and personal attacks, surprisingly extended a cordial offer to Biden, whom he had refused to acknowledge as the winner of the 2020 election just weeks prior.

In the same letter, Trump addressed Biden as "President Biden," alluding to Biden's status as the 46th President of the United States.
