On Wednesday, President Donald Trump appeared in public for the first time since the election defeat, when he visited the war cemetery in Arlington on Veterans Day.
Here he took part in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. He did not speak in public, nor to the press.
The Guardian points out that Trump usually talks to the press before returning to the White House after official events, but that he has avoided journalists in recent days.
Trump has also not spoken publicly since Joe Biden was announced as the new president of the United States on Saturday. With the exception of a number of Twitter messages and emails, there has been silence from the president.
Can be Biden’s nightmare
Little on the schedule
Despite staying away from the public, he has not had much else to do, according to CNN.
CNN has examined the president’s official timetable, and writes that Trump has shown little interest in his job as president.
Since October 2, which was when the president was diagnosed with covid, and until election day on November 3, he has more or less taken a break from official events.
From October 2, there have been 13 days with an empty schedule, including the time he was at the military hospital Walter Reed and isolated in the White House, reports the TV channel.
Now the alarm goes off
The daily schedule does not include all of the president’s meetings and activities. Nevertheless, CNN emphasizes that the lack of official meetings of more than a month – in the midst of a global pandemic – is noticeable.
Trump’s last intelligence meeting was on October 2, the morning after he himself tested positive for the coronavirus.
“Just as he promised, President Trump is working hard for a fair election, while fulfilling the task of putting the United States first,” said Secretary of State Judd Deere in a statement.
Since October 2, the president’s official events have included a meeting with military troops at Fort Bragg on October 29 and the inauguration of Amy Coney Barrett as a Supreme Court justice on October 26.

“BIG NEWS”
Trump on Tuesday reportedly met with political advisers to discuss the next step in the legal process, writes CNN. He has previously threatened to take the allegations of electoral fraud to the Supreme Court.
Donald Trump continues to claim that he is the real winner of the presidential election. He has still not presented any evidence that cheating has been committed.
In an e-mail sent to voters on Wednesday, which Dagbladet has received, the president’s election campaign writes that “legal votes determine who wins the election, NOT the press”.
She stands in the way of Biden’s plan
Here it is claimed that election observers did not get the necessary access. An e-mail states: “President Trump won the election with 71 million LEGAL votes. Horrible things happened that our observers did NOT see. Millions of postal votes were sent to people who did not want them. “
In another e-mail entitled “BIG NEWS”, signed by Donald Trump, it is written that “I will NEVER stop fighting for you”.
Attached here is a kind of boast list of what he has achieved during his presidency.
“My administration has achieved things no one thought were possible. The stock market is BIG, a vaccine for the coronavirus is on the way and will be safe soon. “
– Picked him up from the scrap heap
Towards Philadelphia
Again, it is pointed out that it is time to defend the election.
“We can not let the Democrats STOLE the election of their favorite president. They want to DESTROY everything we have fought so hard for “, it is said in one of the emails sent on Wednesday.
In the e-mails, the Trump camp writes that “democratic cities, such as Detroit and Philadelphia, two of the most politically corrupt places in the United States, cannot be responsible for determining the outcome of the election.”
It was when Joe Biden won Pennsylvania, where Philadelphia is located, that there was no way back for Trump, and Biden was declared the winner.
On twitter, Trump is taking a hard line against Al Schmidt, a Republican election commissioner in Philadelphia. Trump calls him a “RINO” – a “Republican just by name.”
– He refuses to look at the mountain of corruption and dishonesty. We win! writes the president.
Al Schmidt calls the allegations of electoral fraud “ridiculous” in an interview with CNN.
