Playbook this morning: Is Trump done being president?

DONALD TRUMP is out of public view, exacting revenge on his political enemies, ranting about a stolen election and risking allies on Capitol Hill, who are starting to concede that he has lost.
-- HE HAS HARDLY made a public appearance since losing the election. He has nothing on his public schedule today.

-- HE CANCELED his Thanksgiving trip to Mar-a-Lago. https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/17/politics/trump-future-white-house/index.html

-- HE FIRED a DHS official who said the election was safe and secure.
-- HE HAS FIRED the Defense secretary, and sidelined the CIA director.

-- HE AND HIS ADMINISTRATION are hardly engaged with Congress on the issues of the day -- including new measures to fight the pandemic.

-- HIS ADMINISTRATION is not closer to allowing BIDEN to transition
-- @GOPLeader suggested the election is “driving” toward a JOE BIDEN victory. Republican senators were seen fist-bumping VP-elect @KamalaHarris on the Senate floor Tuesday, seemingly congratulating her for winning the election.
-- ON TUESDAY NIGHT, TRUMP congratulated the Wayne County, Mich., Board of Canvassers for failing “to certify the election results.” Hours later, they certified the election result.
