President abandons Mar-a-Lago NYE party as Secret Service drops loyalists from Biden detail
Donald Trump is returning early to Washington on Thursday, cutting short his Christmas break and missing out on the annual New Year’s Eve party at his Florida residence Mar-a-Lago despite charging attendees $1,000 per ticket.
Back in DC, the president will continue his protest against the certification of November’s election results in the Senate on 6 January, at which Republican senator Josh Hawley will voice Republican objections to Democrat Joe Biden’s win even though the Trump campaign has still failed to turn up any evidence of the mass voter fraud it alleges.
The US Secret Service is meanwhile reportedly making changes to its presidential detail tasked with protecting Mr Biden in order to root out alleged Trump loyalists from its ranks.
=============
These seem to be two different news stories.
One is that the Secret Service is concerned that there are Trump loyalists on Biden's detail. Why? Do they suspect they'll try to do him harm or not stop others from doing him harm? This is worrisome.
The other story is that Trump won't be at the Mar-a-Largesse New Years party, that he charged $1,000 each, with the expectation that guests will mingle with him. Good luck getting your money back. There's a Trump-U student born every minute.
