On May 1, barely six months after the midterm elections, Donald Trump appears to have abandoned the White House and abdicated his role as president. He issued no formal statement, though four White House aides — who spoke on the condition of anonymity — claim they found a napkin on the president’s desk in the Oval Office on the evening of April 30, scrawled in red ink with the following message: "Blame Crooked Hillary & Hfior & the Fake News Media."

Fake editions of The Washington Post handed out at multiple locations in D.C.

A copy of this special issue was collected from The Outrage, ready to be shipped to any #whiterabbit follower willing to provide a terrestrial shipping address. To celebrate the awakening of democracy, the newspaper will be sent to whoever leaves the comment on this post which receives the most upvotes by the end of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Now we can all get along!

    Flight-tracking databases show the departure of a private, luxury helicopter — a Bell 429 MAGnificent — from the immediate vicinity of the White House at 3:15 am on May 1. Tracking shows that same helicopter eventually landed in the Crimean resort city of Yalta.

[Range: 390 nmi (449 mi, 722 km)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_429_GlobalRanger#Specifications_(Bell_429))

DC to Yalta: 5258 mi (over Newfoundland, no less)

    “This is unprecedented,” said Tanisha Jones, Distinguished Professor of American History at Columbia University. “No other president in history has fled the White House like this.”
