President-elect Donald Trump’s team kicked off his Inauguration Day festivities by trolling lame-duck President Biden — saying he was being booted to live in a senior living facility. “EVICTION NOTE,” his transition team, TrumpWarRoom, wrote in a post on X first thing Monday. "At 1200 p.m. ET, White House Senior Living will cease to exist and its resident will be transferred to a Delaware facility on a permanent basis.” The message was posted alongside a 30-second spoof video showing Biden, the oldest-ever president at 82, apparently being cared for at a so-called “White House Senior Living” facility."

64-year-old Terry Robison is a working-class retiree trying to make his money last throughout the remainder of his life. And Holiday Inn is the clear winner.
