Shortforbob 2,159 #1 Posted January 18 Rumor has it he's booked a garden shop. Oh I do hope this is true. https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2021/01/the-pentagon-will-not-host-traditional-armed-forces-farewell-tribute-for-donald-trump-defence-officials.html The Pentagon will not host traditional Armed Forces farewell tribute for Donald Trump - Defence officials The Pentagon will not host a traditional Armed Forces ceremony to farewell outgoing President Donald Trump, according to several reports, following his second impeachment on charges of inciting an insurrection. Two senior Department of Defense officials confirmed to Washington-based Defense One - a digital news outlet covering the defence and national security sector - that a military farewell is not being planned for the President, who will officially vacate the White House on January 20. In recent history, the Pentagon - the headquarters of the Department of Defense - will mark the end of a President's administration by hosting an Armed Forces farewell tribute, during which the Commander-in-Chief has the opportunity to thank troops who work perilously to defend their country. However, it now appears Vice President Mike Pence has been tasked with the tradition. On Wednesday (local time), the White House announced that Pence will front a series of engagements to celebrate "the Trump Administration's historic foreign policy achievements". It follows reports that Trump is seeking an extravagant sendoff on the morning of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration. An insider source told CNN last week that Trump wants his departure from the White House to be commemorated with an elaborate "military-style sendoff" and a "crowd of supporters". According to ABC News, the President had envisioned a military band, a red carpet and a US Air Force fly-past to mark the end of his administration, with the Associated Press reporting that Trump had also inquired about the possibility of a 21-gun salute. https://thenewdaily.com.au/news/world/us-news/2021/01/18/trump-farewell-rejected/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shortforbob 2,159 #2 Posted January 18 At this rate he'll be needing a straight white jacket. OH THE HUMILIATION! https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-18/trump-farewell-planned-for-wednesday-morning-ahead-of-biden-oath White House officials are planning a farewell ceremony for Donald Trump as he leaves Washington on Wednesday morning for the last time as president, according to a copy of the invitation seen by Bloomberg News. The event is scheduled for 8 a.m. at Joint Base Andrews just outside the nation’s capital, where the outgoing president will make his departure aboard Air Force One for Florida. Invitations have been circulated to supporters, including former administration officials and other backers, asking them to arrive by 7:15 a.m. Trump has decided to skip the Jan. 20 inauguration of his successor, Joe Biden, at the U.S. Capitol, becoming the first living U.S. president in more than a century to choose not to attend the regular exchange of power. Trump will instead be at his Mar-a-Lago resort as the incoming president is sworn in at noon that day. A White House spokesman declined to comment. Some White House aides will be on the South Lawn for the lift-off of the presidential helicopter with Trump aboard, though the attendance will be limited. Strict security measures throughout downtown Washington and especially near the White House will make it too difficult for outside guests to access the campus.
