Among the concerns is the sentence 'You're fired!'  which means 'You've been fired!', became a social media user term. The sentence was popularized by Trump in the television program  The Apprentice  he once aired. Not to be outdone, some international celebrities on average welcomed the decision. Joe Biden won the  46th presidential  election in  the United States  by gaining 284 electoral votes while his Republican challenger Donald Trump garnered only 214 electoral votes.
