Trump to Leave Washington on Morning of Biden's Inauguration

Associated Press

   President Donald Trump will leave Washington on Wednesday morning, just
   before President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration, to begin his
   post-presidential life in Florida.

   He will be sent off with a departure ceremony at Joint Base Andrews,
   according to a person familiar with the planning who spoke on condition
   of anonymity because Trump's plans have not been formally announced.
   Officials are considering an elaborate event that would have the feel
   of a state visit, with a red carpet, color guard, military band and
   21-gun salute all being discussed.

   Trump has announced that he willnot be attending Biden's inauguration
   -- abreak with tradition -- after spending months making baseless
   allegations of voter fraud. Vice President Mike Pence will attend in
   his place.
