Today in things that should in no way be news, but are, Donald Trump said he would leave the White House if (when) the Electoral College votes for President-elect Joe Biden. Trump took questions from reporters late Thursday afternoon after speaking remotely to military service members. Asked about leaving the White House, he said “Certainly I will, and you know that.” Except nobody has known for sure just how much of a fight Trump would put up about leaving, leading to lol-sob type events such as The Boston Globe consulting a hostage negotiator and an animal-control officer on tactics for getting him out peacefully, because “a nation hooked on drama does not want to see a US president dragged out the front door,” only to have to turn around and say whoops, maybe people do want that.
