Trump
has probed his closest associates about the possibility of breaking with the Republican Party and creating his own political force, the Patriots Party.

can go in that direction.

13.33 Republican leaders leave Trump alone in his farewell to go to mass with Biden
A thermometer to determine the success of an event is to measure how many people each guest is authorized to bring as a companion.
If a guest can, for example, go with a maximum of five people, that does not work.
And five people are those who can take those attending the farewell ceremony of
Donald Trump
from
Washington
, which today at 2 in the afternoon Spanish peninsular time (8 in the morning of Washington) leaves the Andrews air base, on the outskirts from the city.
And, most notable, no one is going to fire
Trump
.
Not even his own vice president,
Mike Pence
.
Neither will the leader of the Republicans in the
House of Representatives
,
Kevin McCarthy
, nor his counterpart in the Senate,
Mitch McConnell
.
If there was any doubt about the total political loneliness of the outgoing president, this anecdote clears it.

13.28 Melania, invisible first lady
Melania Trump
resigned just four years ago.
As soon as he took possession of one of the most exposed positions in Trump's court: that of first lady.
The wife seems to have given up even earlier, judging by the clouding of her face every time she faces "Donald," whom she mentioned in passing in her farewell speech on Monday.
Away from the spotlight, her role as 'first lady' has been lackluster and marked by disagreements with her own husband.
He has avoided explicitly supporting Trump's policies, although in his farewell speech he slipped a call for calm after the assault on the Capitol.

12.54 The New Faces of Joe Biden's Team
The discreet allure of boredom comes to
Washington
.
In four years,
Donald Trump
has had five secretaries of defense (one of whom,
Mark Esper
, served twice), six secretaries of Homeland Security, and four chiefs of staff.
One of its communication directors,
Anthony Scaramucci
, lasted exactly ten days.
After that carousel of names, which has driven all the protocol units of the accredited embassies in the
United States
crazy
because, literally, they could not cope with changing the names of the invitations between one event and another,
Joe Biden
wants to give an image of competition and, why not say it, boredom, because he will be sworn in just when the United States has reached 400,000 deaths from Covid-19 and, in relation to its population, it is the sixth country in the world, only behind Belgium , Slovenia, Czech Republic, and Great Britain.
For his team,
Biden
has sought out people with experience and whom he knows well.
Many of them were under
Obama's
orders
, when Biden was vice president, but they were always more in contact with the current 'number one' than with his Democratic predecessor.

The United States
today celebrates the most tense transfer of presidential powers in 160 years, since
Abraham Lincoln
took office surrounded by armed men after seven states had unilaterally declared independence in fear that the new president would limit the expansion of slavery. towards the new territories of the West.
Five weeks later, civil war broke out between the secessionist defenders of slavery and the defenders of national unity opposed to its expansion.
That is not the case in the US in 2021. No one fears a civil war between supporters of the outgoing president,
Donald Trump
, and the winner of the November 3 election.
But even so, the tension is enormous.
For the first time since
George Washington was
sworn in on April 30, 1789, in New York City (in an event in which the Spanish Navy ship Galveston fired thirteen salvoes in honor of the new president), there will be no audience in the opening.
Also for the first time since this tradition was established, in 1825,
Donald Trump
and his wife,
Melania
, will not receive their successor at their official residence. [Read the complete information from Pablo Pardo]
