Moving trucks arrive at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago ahead of Inauguration Day

Several massive moving trucks arrived at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in Florida on Monday morning, a sign that the president will permanently relocate to the Palm Beach estate after leaving office this week.

Around 9.30am Monday two trucks from Sterling, Virginia-based company JK Moving Services were seen parked in front of the club with workers carrying large boxes into the property.

There was heavy security presence surrounding the sprawling property with a government helicopter and a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office chopper flying around the club. Law enforcement patrol boats were also monitoring the delivery of boxes from afar, according to WFLX.

Donald Trump plans to fly to Mar-a-Lago on the morning of Inauguration Day, breaking from tradition to snub President-elect Joe Biden by skipping the ceremony.

Trump’s last days in the White House have been marked by rage and turmoil, multiple sources said. He watched some of the impeachment debate on TV and grew angry at the Republican defections, a source familiar with the situation said.

Trump has suffered a sudden rupture with his vice president, the departure of disgusted senior advisers, his abandonment by a small but growing number of Republican lawmakers, the loss of his cherished Twitter megaphone, and a rush by corporations and others to distance themselves from him and his businesses.

‘Everybody feels like they´re doing the best job they can to hold it all together until Biden takes over,’ one Trump adviser told Reuters on condition of anonymity.

Even as Trump has spent time venting to aides and confidantes, one tangible issue he has been focused on is how to apply his power to pardon before his term ends, three White House sources said.

The biggest question is whether he will issue an unprecedented pardon to himself, in addition to family members, before leaving office.

While Trump has not publicly signaled his intention to take a step that some legal analysts say could be unlawful, one White House official told Reuters: ‘I’ve been expecting that.’

Trump isn’t the only one snubbing his successor. On Monday it was revealed the Melania Trump left a final snub on incoming First Lady Jill Biden by not giving her successor a tour of the family wing of the White House. 

A spokesperson for Biden confirmed the lack of outreach to DailyMail.com, another sign of tension between the outgoing and incoming administrations.

‘Melania Trump will become the first modern first lady not to invite the woman who will replace her to the White House for a walk-through of the private living quarters on the second and third floors,’ author Kate Andersen Brower noted in an op-ed for CNN.com.
