President Donald Trump has canceled his annual plans to spend Thanksgiving at his Mar-a-Lago resort, as aides describe a "bunker mentality" in the White House.
Trump has kept a low profile since his election loss to President-elect Joe Biden, making few public appearances but maintaining his customary stream of tweets.
Trump was scheduled to travel to Florida next week, but Stephanie Grisham, the spokeswoman for the first lady, Melania Trump, tweeted late Tuesday that the Trumps had chosen to remain at the White House for the holidays.
Trump has refused to concede the election, baselessly challenging the election's integrity. Insider and Decision Desk HQ called the election for Biden on November 6, while most other news outlets made the same call November 7.
Numerous reports have detailed how Trump has confined himself to stew in the Oval Office and White House, relentlessly watching the news, and publicly claiming that he had won.
Trump's schedule Wednesday showed "no public events" — the 11th day since the election in which it had done so.
Trump aides told The New York Times that the president's "mood is often bleak," and a White House official told CNN before the new Thanksgiving plan was announced: "It feels like bunker mentality."
