It seems Trump told the other leaders at the G20 that he looked forward to working with them for years to come. When they later held a session on pandemic preparedness he went golfing
Typical - when they want to work together on the pandemic he feels golf is a far better priority!!
The cuntyness of Trump is mind - blowing......
Trump has sacked one of his campaign lawyer team. Sidney Powell had made wild claims, without any evidence and that proved her to be too conspiratorial even for him.
So the transition to the new administration officially begins. Trump tweeted to take credit for the move, but it doesn't appear to have been his decision.

Trump should have sacked himself when he lost... but one wondes what sort of mess he is going to leave the White house in I wonder?
Yes the transition is finally underway, but although Trump's attempts to overturn the election haven't worked he's made a lot of money out of it. His team have circulated almost a hundred different emails asking for donations to challenge the election, but a huge amount of the money raised goes to himself rather than his legal fund and a huge amount goes to the Republican Party rather than their legal fund. Trump's claims of fraud have been lucrative!
I'd be of the opinion that, if you're stupid enough to donate to this fund in the first place, you're not going to believe the truth about where the money's really going anyway.
Trump claiming credit for the record stock market yesterday.
I suppose it's true though, since it followed his announcement that the transition could proceed
Trump has pardoned General Flynn, Now that was expected but is still interesting as Flynn must accept his guilt to get the pardon. He did plead guilty in court twice but then attempted to change his plea. The judge wanted to know why he wasn't being charged with treason!
Bill Barr instructed The Justice Department to ask the Judge to allow them to withdraw the charges (after he had pleaded guilty and was awaiting sentencing) saying he should not have been investigated and charged but up until today the Judge had refused to do that because he wanted to know how they came to that decision (we all know it was to please Trump)
The next pardon may well be Manafort. I've lost count of how many of Trumps "fine people" have been found guilty and jailed.
It's Thanksgiving in the USA. He obviously got confused and pardoned Flynn at the same time as the Turkey
