Trump to make first public appearance since Biden projected winner
Source: ABC News
President Trump is set to break a five-day stretch of no public appearances when he ventures out of the White House for a Veterans Day observance event on Wednesday.
The president is not expected to make remarks when he and the first lady lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery.
The president, who was playing at his Virginia golf course when Joe Biden surpassed the 270 electoral votes needed to be projected the winner on Saturday, has maintained an uncharacteristically quiet public posture since, with a schedule devoid of public events.
While a Marine was seen posted outside the West Wing for at least part of the day on Monday and Tuesday, indicating that the president was in the Oval Office, there was scant evidence otherwise of what was consuming the presidents day, other than activity on his Twitter account that included a surprise announcement of his Defense Secretary Mark Esper on Monday.

What is remarkable isnt that the worst criminal alive is still a criminal but that 70 million Americans desperately want that criminal to be in charge.

(22,100 posts)the will of the people so he can stay in office longer somehow. I wouldn't be surprised if he started signing pardons right and left, for definitely undesirable characters, signing extremely undesirable executive orders that are targeted at those states / people that his anger is focused on (that in some manner, contributed to his loss), etc. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if he totally disabled all efforts to stem the tide of CV and its' spread.
A little man can be capable of so much anger. This is evidence of where the Senate failed in its duty to remove the PINO when they had the opportunity to do so, and thus, there must be other remedies, other solutions to remove a failed president and a failed Senate/or failed body of Congress, e.g., the people petition (10 - 20 million signatures or some threshold) that would kick off a special election independent of the Congress, etc.

(16,934 posts)or politicians since, were prepared for the flatline character impeached traitor is. His henchmen are as bad or worse. The r's in power are as bad or worse. So there was perfect timing to ovethrow the document that relies strongly on honor and loyalty, something none of these thugs have. I imagine they stay awake trying to think of ways to undermine our country more than they have already, probably have contests where the person with the best evil idea gets to kill something.

(22,100 posts)even more challenges to overcome. He will overcome, but these thugs aren't going to make it easy for him. I hope Biden has an active communications director, to challenge these thugs on literally everything and make sure that everyone in the known world know of the crap that they are pulling on all of the rest of us.

(16,934 posts)it'll never stop. The r's think they are almost to their goal, but they have another think coming.
I hope we can impeach some r senators, even some r' reps and then make sure that there are unchangeable laws in place that thugs like this can't get into power again. Something like Wac-a-Mole :/

Maybe he got some of that stuff Andrea Mitchell uses.
