Trump acknowledges he will leave the White House -- in 4 am statement on aide's Twitter account

Unable to tweet himself, Trump released a comment on Twitter through aide Dan Scavino.

In it, Trump acknowledges there will be a transition, but continues to repeat his delusions about the election that resulted in the fatal attack on the capitol.

Statement by President Donald J. Trump on the Electoral Certification:

“Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20th. I have always said we would continue our...

...fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted. While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it’s only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again!”


What a dick. Why can't he just fuck off already. Are we supposed to congratulate the fascist that after his failed coup attempt he will now agree to a peaceful transfer of power. What does he want, a round of applause?

how can there be a peaceful transfer of power? His followers will assume that is Trump code for “keep fighting for me” and the violence will continue.

You are delusional and always have been. You lost. Get it through. Leave, motherfucker. We depise you and want you gone, so start packing and find a country who will accept you, because I think you will find that the list is very short.

It also doesn't sound like he will leave.

"...nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20th....it’s only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again!”

Sounds like the "orderly transition" is the same bullshit he was saying weeks ago, and that POS Nazi Barbie was claiming too, about the 2nd inauguration of the liar-in-chief.

Republican Governors can't see it Republican secretaries of State can't see it the courts can't see it the Supreme Court can't see it most of the House and Senate can't see it, delusion of widespread fraud in the election is Just an Illusion. Yeah he said weeks ago there would be a peaceful transition of power too. Then he incites a riot
