Inauguration day: US Capitol riots, protests, Joe Biden, Donald Trump updates (news.com.au)
Before she leaves the White House, Melania Trump will break with a 70-year-old tradition for outgoing First Ladies with a brutal gesture.
Several US outlets are reporting that Mrs Trump will not be not giving her successor Jill Biden a tour of the family wing of the White House, and that she hasn’t even reached out to the Bidens since the election.
The move has been blasted as “immature and impolite” by veteran White House reporter Kate Andersen Brower.
The tradition that has continued under tense political circumstances and dates back to the 1950s when Bess Truman hosted her replacement Mamie Eisenhower.
Meanwhile, her husband has still not congratulated Joe Biden or invited him for the traditional tea visit in the Oval Office.
He will be skipping Mr Biden’s inauguration – making him the first ex-president to snub his successor in a century and a half.
Tomorrow, he’ll travel to his Mar-a-Lago golf club residence in Florida, departing the White House early in order to benefit from full presidential travel privileges up to the last minute.
Marine One will take him from the White House to Joint Base Andrews to catch Air Force One – the presidential plane that will no longer be his to use from noon.
Thank fark this will be the last we see of this parasitic gold digging whore and her baby blimp husband, both towering examples of walking, talking human excrement.
