Trump is shunned in every quarter, except his most rabid and, in his own words “uneducated”, supporters. Those are the ones he loves. The ones he is willing to use, as fodder for his own, selfish cannon, for his own arrogant “wars”.
Increasingly no one else will have him.
Go now.

This article is a fine expression of the military angle on this momement. Recounting the history of the military with past presidents, and how they used their relationship and their farewells to honor the troops; Tr, of course, used his relationship to gild his own crummy image.
As all prior have honored the military for their dedications and work in their own way, according to the times and events, the article concludes that Trump will not have the opportunity to “thank the troops”. Having highlighted that the leaders of the military felt obligated
to remind the troops, and the nation, that their oath is to the Constitution and not a man nor an office; in particular, not this man Trump, who had tried as hard as he could to twist that relationship into his own “Pretorian Guard”, what was unstated is that he would not have
used that final message to express thanks, that is not a capability that Trump has, to express honest appreciation for anyone other than himself & those that execute on his behalf, but to regale the troops, & the nation again with yet another of his demented, detached rants.
Trump is said to have wanted a 21 gun salute on his departure. Prior to that he wanted a military parade in his honor. His unfiltered arrogance, boundless and demanding, along with his deadly incompetence has rendered Trump a byword.
Nobody wants to hear another word.
Go now.
