Converting Time series Df with Time variable as columns from wide to long

Question

I am trying to convert a Times series df to long format however the years are in columns rather than rows. i have tried both .pivot and .melt but cant get to desired layout included code and example table below.

map_df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GeorgeRobbin/GeorgeRobbin.github.io/main/Delinnquency_MAP.csv')
map_df1 = melt(map_df(wide), id.vars = c("name"), variable.name = "date"

current layout

  Name        2008-01    2008-02        
 California      x           x                   
 New York        x           x

desired layout

  date        California New York    
  2008-01        x           x         
  2008-02        x           x

pandas.Dataframe.transpose works.

import pandas as pd

map_df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GeorgeRobbin/GeorgeRobbin.github.io/main/Delinnquency_MAP.csv')
map_df = map_df.transpose()
