President Trump has always been a bit of a showboat, and this dramatic streak has helped him to stand out in the overly-populated and aggressive world of international real estate.
This panache along with his charismatic personality has put Donald Trump on the list of most influential people in the world, and, even in defeat, it appears as though the show must go on.
President Trump is considering a made-for-TV grand finale: a White House departure on Marine One and final Air Force One flight to Florida for a political rally opposite Joe Biden’s inauguration, sources familiar with the discussions tell Axios.
Why it matters: The former network star is privately discussing using his waning powers as commander in chief to order up the exit he wants after dissing Biden by refusing to concede the election, welcome him to the White House or commit to attending his inauguration.
The big picture: The Trump talk could create a split-screen moment: the outgoing president addressing a roaring crowd in an airport hangar while the incoming leader is sworn in before a socially distanced audience outside the Capitol, as NBC News first reported.
It’s rumored that Trump could use the event to announce his plans to run for President again in 2024. That would create a major headache for the Republican Party, freezing out just about anyone else who might try to go up against him.
