As Joe Biden plans to take office, Donald Trump was getting ready to leave. Capitol Hill's violence has overshadowed his final days, but Trump released a video praising his administration's legacy and listing economic and foreign policy achievements.
He surprised many by telling his successor luck but failed to mention Joe Biden by name.
"I stand before you truly independent of what we have done together. We did what we came here to do and so many more. This week, we introduce a new president and pray for its success in maintaining America safe and rich. We continue our best wishes, and we also want them to own luck, a significant word."And while Trump might be moving office, Trumpism hasn't gone away, and the 45th President said, "I fought for you. I fought for your family. I fought for our country. Above all, I fought for America and all it is for, and that is safe, strong, proud, and free. Now, as I plan to give power over to a new administration at noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we began is only just starting."
As is traditional with an outgoing president, Trump issued a flurry of pardons in his office's final hours.
Formerly one of Trump's biggest allies, Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell broke publically with Trump - raising questions about whether he might vote to cook when the former President's impeachment trial takes place in the Senate."The last time the Senate convened, we had just improved the Capitol from violent criminals who tried to stop Congress from doing our duty. The mob was fed lies. The President and other convincing people provoked them."
At no point has Trump conceded the election to Joe Biden and is among several staying from the inauguration. Trump is flying to Florida - the first president to skip his successor's inauguration since Andrew Johnson in 1869.
