Trump has left the White House and the takedowns were as savage as you’d expect – 27 favourites
Trump has really gone – and you aren’t about to wake up and realise he won the election.
The twice-impeached president hosted a military farewell for himself and won’t be attending the inauguration of Joe Biden, in case you needed a reminder of his twin abiding features – narcissism and pettiness.
There was what would have been a touching farewell, had it not been more of a ‘good riddance’.

Lest we forget – when he leaves, he takes his family with him.
So, farewell then Nepotism Barbie, Cokey Flop-Sweat Ken and The Spare. May the rest of your miserable Village of the Damned lives be filled in equal measure with obscurity and irrelevance, interspersed with bouts of criminal prosecution. pic.twitter.com/9tS6rZHWz3

Needless to say, tweeters have been really injoying taking the piss – just as Trump wouldn’t have wanted.

Word of the day is 'exsibilate' (17th century): to hiss a poor performer off the stage.

Every parent knows how its feels to tiptoe out of the bedroom, hoping the baby has finally gone to sleep, heading to the kitchen to open the wine, listening for the slightest sound, praying you can finally relax. That’s were we are right now with Trump.

Even though none of the White House staff will want to get Trump a leaving card, at least they'd know he might actually read as it had his name at the top.
