All cynicism aside, that’s a beautiful note and I, too, pray for God’s guidance and that the “coming years will be a time of prosperity, peace, and grace for our nation.”

“Dear President Trump, As I take leave of this sacred office I wish you and your family all the best in the next four years,” Biden wrote. “The American people – and people around the world – look to this house for steadiness in the inevitable storms of history, and my prayer is that in the coming years will be a time of prosperity, peace, and grace for our nation.”

 

“May God bless you and guide you as He has blessed and guided our beloved country since our founding,” Biden concluded the note, before signing it and dating it Jan. 20.
