Donald and Melania Trump: how will they leave the White House?
If he announced not to attend the inauguration of Joe Biden this Friday, January 8, Donald Trump leaves doubt on the organization of his exit from the White House, just like his wife Melania.
What are Donald and Melania Trump preparing for their last days in the White House? If the outgoing president announced that he would not attend the inauguration of Joe Biden on January 20, 2021, doubt hangs over his plans for the end of his mandate, marked by the scandal. And this, within the presidential administration, just as confused. According to information from the CNN channel, the ex-real estate mogul has alienated himself, favoring a reserve which is unusual for him. "Trump refused to engage in discussions on how he wanted to spend his last days in the White House, or on what he wanted to do afterwards," inform our colleagues from across the Atlantic. As the big day approaches, but also following the concession of the principal concerned, his staff hopes to strike up a conversation about his departure from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Because if Donald Trump refused to lift the veil on his ambitions, he has not stopped contesting his defeat against Joe Biden, hammering his desire for a recount of votes. But it was ultimately his own voters who pushed him to give up, following an insurrection on the Capitol on Wednesday, January 6. "Even if I completely disagree with the result of the election, and the facts support me, there will be an orderly transition on January 20," the politician promised in a statement, encouraged by his main collaborators. Once again, the 45th President of the United States did not want to say more about his plans before this fateful date. The same goes for Melania Trump, silent and "mentally and emotionally" disengaged. She could, however, devote herself to writing a book about the decoration of the White House, for which she redoubled her efforts.
Soon expelled from the White House?
Behind the silence, the uncertainty? Because the invasion of the Capitol on Wednesday, January 6 would have pushed the senior officials of the Trump administration to their limits. The latter looked into a possible early ousting of Donald and Melania Trump from the White House. A strong and possible act thanks to the 25th amendment of the American Constitution, making it possible to remove an American president from office, if the latter is deemed unfit.
New threat for Donald Trump, already targeted by an impeachment procedure at the start of 2020, and an affront that could further destabilize him. "He is under a stress that he has never known before", analyzed his niece Mary on the airwaves of Europe 1, December 1, 2020. "He is in a situation that he has never experienced: for the first time in his life he has to face a defeat that he can't do anything about, try nothing. And honestly, that scares him a lot. " And to warn: "The more it progresses, the more we will see his condition deteriorate."
