trump sent out emails to almost everyone to attend his final speech - he even asked recipients to bring 5 friends.. in the end only a few hundred heard his final bit of rubbish .
For Trump, a consummate showman most comfortable when the focus is squarely on him, perhaps the biggest indignity Wednesday was just how clearly the attention had shifted elsewhere,
A small crowd greeted Trump as he walked across the South Lawn toward Marine One, and a larger but still modest one awaited him at Joint Base Andrews.
At 11 a.m., Air Force One stopped rolling, its belly facing a small phalanx of cameras and about 10 supporters.
and forget about draining the swamp - the swamp got the pardons.. and in the end, trump rescinded an executive order forbidding administration people working for lobbyists etc etc .. ie the swamp is alive and well
