The president-elect, Joe Biden, has already had his first medical mishap less than a month after winning the elections on November 3. The leader of the Democratic Party has broken a foot, specifically his right, while playing with his dog, as his team has confirmed, citing a doctor’s diagnosis. The leader’s injury occurred to an ankle, which has been cracked. This could result in you being sworn into office in a splint. 78-year-old Joe Biden, who will be the oldest president to serve, injured his foot when he slipped while playing with one of the two German Shepherds. that he owns, named Major. At first, his personal physician, Kevin O’Connor, explained that on a first examination it appeared “a sprain of the right foot, with no apparent fracture.” But after subsequent examinations with a scanner, “cracks in the middle of the foot” were confirmed. For this reason, it was confirmed that Biden “will probably have to wear an orthopedic boot for several weeks.” Biden will bring his two dogs, two German Shepherds, to the White House: the aforementioned Major, who was adopted in 2018 from a shelter, and Champ, who has been with the family since 2008. This injury has come just over a week before the end of the legal deadline to officially determine who will be the new president of the United States, a date that will arrive on December 8 .

Trump, for his part, still does not grant Biden’s electoral victory, even though he did give the green light to the transition works. , which is what is truly important from a pragmatic point of view. The still president in office has stressed that “they will not make me change my mind, my opinion will not change in six months”, during an interview with Fox News. “This election was rigged, this election was a total fraud, we will win the election easily.” Yet the judges have been giving him setbacks on the biggest appeals. The last one, in the state of Pennsylvania, where the Supreme Court dismissed a lawsuit that sought to challenge Biden’s victory in this territory. Trump charged the judges: “We are trying to present the evidence and the judges will not allow us to do so.”In this way, he answered the question about the absence of evidence provided by his legal team in the different lawsuits to challenge the electoral results. “We must be heard by the Supreme Court, something must be able to get there. Otherwise, what is the Supreme Court? “Trump said.
