STERLING, Virginia — US President Donald Trump left the White House for the first time since Election Day, heading to his golf club in suburban Virginia as the vote count drags on with Joe Biden leading the Republican incumbent in decisive states.
After appearing twice at the White House in recent days to address the nation, Trump leaves the presidential residence for the Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia.
Biden stands on the verge of winning the White House — a victory in battleground state Pennsylvania, where he is leading, would give him enough votes in the Electoral College, which determines the presidency.
Trump however is claiming: “I won this election, by a lot!” — a claim that is flagged by Twitter.
