(AP) \u2014 <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/donald-trump\">Donald Trump<\/a><\/span> spent his first day as president-elect receiving congratulatory phone calls from his defeated opponent, world leaders and President <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/joe-biden\">Joe Biden<\/a><\/span> as he began the process of turning his election victory into a government.<\/p>\n<p>Trump was keeping a low profile, staying out of the public eye after <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\"><a class=\"Link AnClick-LinkEnhancement\" data-gtm-enhancement-style=\"LinkEnhancementA\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/election-day-trump-harris-white-house-83c8e246ab97f5b97be45cdc156af4e2\">addressing supporters in Florida<\/a><\/span> during the wee hours of Wednesday morning. <\/p>\n<p>Vice President Kamala Harris called Trump to concede the race and to congratulate him, while Biden invited the man he ousted from the White House four years ago to an Oval Office meeting to prepare to return the keys. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Trump looks forward to the meeting, which will take place shortly, and very much appreciated the call,\u201d said Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s chief of staff later Wednesday nudged the Trump team to sign the required federal agreements necessary to begin an orderly presidential transition, a White House official said.<\/p>\n<p>A source with knowledge of the Trump campaign said transition talks to take over power on Jan. 20, 2025, had not begun in earnest. Instead, the president-elect was busy taking calls from leaders, domestic and international, donors and key supporters. Transition discussions are expected to ramp up later in the week, as attention turns to naming an inaugural committee and a formal transition team.<\/p>\n<p>Biden chief of staff Jeff Zients reached out to Trump transition co-chairs Howard Lutnick and Linda McMahon to reiterate the important role the agreements with the White House and the General Services Administration play in beginning a presidential transition. The White House official spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive transition planning.<\/p>\n<p>The delay is holding up the federal government\u2019s ability to begin processing security clearances for potential Trump administration national security appointees, which could limit the number of his staff who could work on sensitive information by Inauguration Day. It also means they can\u2019t yet access federal facilities, documents and personnel to prepare for taking office.<\/p>\n<p>The agreements are required by the Presidential Transition Act, and require the president-elect\u2019s team to agree to an ethics plan and to limit and disclose private donations. Congress, in the act, set a deadline of Sept. 1 for the GSA agreement and Oct. 1 for the White House agreement, in an effort to ensure that incoming administrations are prepared to govern when they enter office on Jan. 20.<\/p>\n<p>Lutnick and McMahon released a statement late Wednesday saying Trump will be selecting personnel for his administration in the \u201cdays and weeks ahead,\u201d but did not address the agreements with the Biden administration. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs he chooses the best people to join his team and best policies to pursue, his transition team will ensure the implementation of President Trump\u2019s common sense agenda starting on Day 1,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n<p>The White House announced that Biden had spoken to the president-elect and expressed his commitment to ensuring a smooth transition, while emphasizing the importance of working to bring the country together.<\/p>\n<p>Biden also called Harris to salute her for her campaign. And Trump and Harris spoke on a call where the president-elect \u201cacknowledged Vice President Harris on her strength, professionalism, and tenacity throughout the campaign, and both leaders agreed on the importance of unifying the country,\u201d according to Trump spokesman Steven Cheung. <\/p>\n<div class=\"Infobox\" data-module=\"\" data-gtm-region=\"What to know about the 2024 election: The latest: Kamala Harris urged supporters to accept her election loss in her concession speech Wednesday, encouraging a focus on the future.
