This is so Trumplike that it almost has to be true. Instead of slinking out of office, he’ll pretend that, by God, he didn’t want to be president any more and that’s the only reason he’s leaving.
What would make it especially great is if every TV network except OAN declined to cover it. In Trump’s mind, that would be almost the same as it not happening at all.
