We can all speculate why the happy couple doesn’t want to ring in the New Year together, and I’m sure we will.

Melania flew up Christmas Eve to hold Donnie’s hand, while he talked to children on the phone about Santa, and you remember how that turned out. Apparently she got tired babysitting and decided to have some fun, so she’s back down in Florida doing her thing. Maybe Sean Hannity can come over to the White House and play parcheesi or something. Or maybe Trump can visit Mike and Mother Pence. Or Jared and Ivanka. Is the Sci Fi Channel still running the Twilight Zone marathon on New Year’s Eve?
There’s a particular irony to Trump spending the last day of 2018 alone, because 2019 is going to be the most challenging year of his life — so far. 2020 will probably be worse, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
