Nancy Pelosi once said Donald Trump would be "fumigated out" of the Oval Office if he lost the 2020 election. Joe Biden described him as "the former guy" and "loser." They thought the nightmare was over. Then, like in the movies, Democrats woke up in a cold sweat only to realize it wasn't a dream after all. Instead, they are doomed to be supporting players in a sequel. Trump: The Revenge. This time, it's personal.
Yesterday, Trump made a triumphant who's-got-the-last-laugh now return to Washington, probably the least Trumpy place in the nation: Kamala Harris got 92.5% of the vote here compared with his 6.7%. One of his most recent visits was to appear in court as a criminal defendant accused of an attempted coup. But hey, who cares about that now? Sporting his red tie, Trump was back in the sacred space where Pelosi, Liz Cheney and others swore he must never foot again: the Oval Office. The 45th and soon-to-be 47th president was hosted by Biden, the 46th, to discuss the presidential transition, a courtesy Trump never extended to the man who beat him in 2020.
