With the Supreme Court having already rejected him, and the Safe Harbor deadline having already passed, Donald Trump has all but officially lost the election. Once the Electoral College votes on Monday, it’s over. In fact it’s been over for weeks. But Trump is still dragging out the illusion that he’s contesting the election, so he can continue fundraising on it, and not have to admit to himself that he lost. But even his wife has moved on from the notion.

Melania Trump is already figuring out what to have sent from the White House back to Mar-a-Lago, and is already trying to figure out how to have some kind of post-White House life, according to CNN. Moreover, she must not be doing it in particularly discreet fashion, or else CNN wouldn’t know about it.

In other words, Melania has given up the ghost of Donald’s fantasy that he somehow secretly won the 2020 election. Notably, CNN is also suggesting that Melania has no interest in playing along if Donald announces a pretend 2024 campaign in order to fundraise money. Of course Donald will be in prison long before 2024 anyway.
