For the first times in weeks, President Trump's official schedule for Wednesday, Jan. 20, does not say "he will make many calls and have many meetings." In fact, it has only one item on it: His departure from the White House for Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, the final official stop of his presidency.
The Bidens begin their celebrations at 8:48 p.m., for some reason, and their final scheduled event is just before 10 p.m.
