President Donald Trump exits the White House after four years of tumult much as he arrived, with only a handful of loyalists and family members at his side.

In his final days in office, Trump found friends and political allies in short supply following the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, when a mob of his supporters breached the building to try and stop the formal certification of his election loss to Joe Biden. He leaves Washington with his Republican Party out of power and his popularity at the lowest point of his presidency.

At one point Trump compared himself to Lincoln. Now he will be compared to Jimmy Carter. "WASHINGTON, D.C. -- As President Donald Trump prepares to leave the White House, 34% of Americans approve of the job he is doing as president, the worst evaluation of his presidency. His 41% average approval rating throughout his presidency is four points lower than for any of his predecessors in Gallup's polling era. Trump's ratings showed a record 81-percentage-point average gap between Republicans and Democrats -- 11 points wider than the prior record." source.

Hubris, it always proceed the fall.

He’s not gone yet

Biden does not enter the White House yet again, as he always does whenever he runs for president and fails

Isolated? If having 70 million+ followers is isolated then I guess so.

we have not had “America Held Hostage” with Ted Koppel for 444 days.

The CCP virus has not even been with us in truly statistically significant numbers for 444 days.

“following the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol,”


Were the riots in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, Atlanta, NYC, Chicago, etc, described as “deadly attacks”, or rather as ‘mostly peaceful protests’?

Too much liberal and overseas money keeping the markets propped up. Might be that way for a few months more.

President Trump still has the 85 million Americans who voted for him backing him up so he is in o way isolated.

Yes, I wrote "85 million votes" because that is the likely number of votes that the leftists stole from Trump to leave home with 75 million, Even at 75 million that is the most that any Republican candidate for president has ever received.

Phuck you Creeoy Joe Biden!

McClatch-Clatch-Clatchy is a fourth-rate Leftist birdcage liner that was the final whistle stop for that hideous old Jurassic crone Helen Thomas, before she finally mouldered on the pages of a local Socialist rag in NoVA then did us the favor of CROAKING AND DECOMPOSING.

"with only a handful of loyalists.

Tarpit is a BushBot stooge of the Bush Crime Family which was an active participant of the four years long coup.

He is a deep state troll to be ignored.

Sheeeeyit. President Trump could body surf from Washington to Mar a Lago on the grateful arms of his supporters.
