I wonder where he ate lunch after he was shown the door?
It seems the White House staff ate his after he left.

The irony is that in the heat of today's White House argument, neither
Vance nor Trump forcibly argued that it was the cowardice, corruption,
and weakness of both Obama and Biden  that gave the very shrewd Putin
openings to invade Ukraine in 2014 (Crimea) and in 2022 (the
Donetsk/Luhansk/Kershon Oblasts)...
Trump, despite his tendency to exaggerate, is UTTERLY CORRECT in saying
that Putin would not have dared invade Ukraine while Trump was in
office...
That's just the FACTS...see below for "Syria 2018"* - this incident
SCARED THE HELL outta Putin...
This country and the free world ALWAYS suffer when the Leftists who now
control the Democratic Party are in power...
[ *On February 7, 2018, in eastern Syria, a U.S. military contingent
consisting of 30 soldiers from the 1st Special Forces Operational
Detachment-Delta and 75th Ranger Regiment was deployed to assist Kurdish
forces near a Conoco gas plant in eastern Syria...
Over the course of the day that contingent of 30 Delta Force and Ranger
soldiers was gradually encircled by more than 500 Russian fighters from
the Wagner Group with 27 vehicles ranging from a trio of Russian-made
T-72 main battle tanks to armored personnel...
Observing the build-up through drones in the skies overhead, the Marines
and Green Berets at the site realized that the Putin's private army was
about to attack and would overwhelm the small American force...
The report was sent up the chain of command to the Joint Chiefs and to
the then commander in chief, President Donald Trump...
He approved the orders to unleash hell on Putin's little army.
American warplanes arrived in waves and for three hours scores of
strikes pummeled Russian troops, tanks and other vehicles...
The Russians retreated around 2:30 AM after four hours of fighting...
ZERO American troops were harmed, and somewhere around ****300****
Russian soldiers of the Wagner Group were killed...
The DEADLIEST clash between American and Russian troops in history.
Some can believe that the line that Putin would not have invaded Ukraine
under Trump is "old and tired", but I have around 300 reasons why that
line is both contemporary and rigorous... ]
