Even loudmouth hasn’t come up with what to say if asked about losing.

Trump can not even stand stil. He sways, moves his body around like a 2 year old. It is cute in the 2 year old. Lack of discipline in a 70 year old, or signs of certain diseases.

Or be asked to explain his loss, why he won’t concede it, why he hasn’t spoken with President-elect Biden or why he hasn’t done or won’t do any of the things losers are supposed to do, including attend the inauguration of the guy who beat you. He can’t handle any of that stuff, so the first person who doesn’t want him to speak right now is himself.

doesn't want to expose himself to public criticism and ridicule by appearing in public after seeing the welcome he got when returning from the golf course after Biden's win was called. Not to mention watching the nation dancing in the streets everywhere.

Instead he is turning his anger to actions that he expects will screw over Biden and the general public, as vengeance for his loss. Also is probably taking actions to cover his tracks e.g. destroying records. And selecting what he will take with him, e.g. useful info to sell to other countries.

If he wanted to publicly vent, his staff would not be able to stop him.

He claimed to have seen thousands of Muslims dancing in the streets of New Jersey following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

He lied, as usual.

It's kind of fitting that Trump got to see Americans really dancing in the streets because of the joy we feel at his loss!
