abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-plans-depart-washington-inauguration-day-morning-pence/story?id=75280643Sorry, uh, “SIR,” but the military is occupied trying to keep the National Mall and the Capitol building safe. You just go on your merry way. Buh-bye now. (I wish) If we have to foot the bill for this on top of everything else, I’ll be pea-livid. And I’m guessing we’re pretty certain that given him trying to throw a big to-do on Inauguration Day for himself, he won’t be penning a letter to leave for Joe Biden.

There are conflicting reports about that today. It’ll be interesting to see which way it goes.

I just read in another thread that there will NOT be a military send-off. hmm, I’ll go see if I can find the link. The article linked in that thread was written yesterday. As of late this afternoon, ABC reported that Trump is expecting a military send-off from Andrews AFB on the morning of the inauguration. They were talking about on the evening news tonight. Trump is hell-bent on flying to Florida on Air Force One, so wants to have a big affair at Andrews.

Remember when parents used to create a tunnel for the soccer team to run through after a game?
I'm picturing the Millers, Meadows, Rudy, Javanka and who ever else is left in the WH forming a tunnel for him.

He is such a horrible, disgusting person. Amazing how we went from Obama...to him.

I thought he didn’t care about the military? Didn’t he insult Gold Star families?

He is such a horrible, disgusting person. Amazing how we went from Obama...to him. Obama who had to SUCK IT UP and show that crass man around the White House. Who had to welcome him back on inauguration day. Biden who had to SUCK IT UP and preside over the certification of the crass man's election over Clinton. The grown-ups who know how to behave with dignity and grace, vs. the tiny little man with the tiny little brain and the tiny little compassion for anyone outside of his immediate family. Obama and Biden SUCKED IT UP and dealt with it. TRUMP JUST SUCKS.

HE has told his hoards that he will not be in DC. I certainly hope it was not a signal for them to do something extreme endangering those we care about!!
He does not need the honor of a military send off. He wants to be in the air on Air Force One while and after Biden is inaugurated. He forgets at 12 noon it will no longer be Air Force One!!!
I hope he leaves DC safe!
ETA: (As in that DC is safe. Not that he is safe leaving)

His selfishness never ceases to amaze me. DC has 20,000 National Guard troops, in part because he incited a riot and insurrection. Now, he wants to draw attention and security away from Biden just to stroke his own ego?

I think he may have a second riot planned and wants military protection while the shit starts hitting the fan. When he said he would not be at the inauguration, I assumed he has a sniper planned and does not want to get in the way.

If he was just worried about saving his own ass, he would leave DC the day before or even now. He just can’t stand for anyone else to be the center of attention. And he’s probably furious that his attempts to steal or overturn the election failed.
Also, we know how much he admires dictators and likes North Korea style parades. Remember the July 4th celebration where he ordered armored tanks into DC? He’s probably thinking he would like and deserves a send off like that.

They could shoot him out of a cannon in the direction of Florida. Cannons are kind of military, aren’t they?

I hope that none of the news media carry any of this sendoff - all he craves is attention. I'm going to be watching Biden's inauguration with champagne.

Also, Melanie has not hosted a welcome for Dr. Biden as she enjoyed from Michelle Obama.

We placed an order for an Inauguration Day cake. It will say "We did it Joe!" We will celebrate. God help our country. I am so angry that Trump has left his group of deplorables riled up. We are seeing why the peaceful transfer of power is such an important part of our democracy.

Ironic that the draft dodger now wants the military to acknowledge him.

Yes, I will also be pea-livid if anything resembling a “send-off” occurs. He had his rally on the 6th. He needs to get out of DC today.

I like the idea of him being kicked out of the White House similar to someone being let out of jail. No transportation arranged for, simply forced to walk off with his clothes on his back and his personal belongings in a bag. Conversely, why not ask one of the DragTheInterstate chapters to drive him down to Florida in one of their big ass trucks? He can enjoy rubbing elbows with his followers for the 15 hour drive. Stopping to pee in gas station restrooms.

I hope that none of the news media carry any of this sendoff - all he craves is attention. I'm going to be watching Biden's inauguration with champagne. And with our patriotic cupcake assortment, and brunch and charcuterie boards and apps throughout the day. With all our patriotic decor up- only on the inside rather than outside, like I had hoped. Our Kamala t shirts arrived yesterday. All day party. No, we don't do this every inauguration. You’ve inspired me to go bigger! I was just going to day drink some bubbly. And symbolically smudge my house.
