In a sign that Trump is planning to leave the White House even if he refuses to concede defeat, outgoing President Donald Trump today assigned a number of his key staff members to serve on the board of directors of public agencies, despite publicly denying defeat.
Trump, who is scheduled to hand over to Democratic president-elect Joe Biden on Jan. 20 next year, today assigned his staunch defender, former U.S. Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell, to serve on the United States Holocaust Memorial Council in Washington, D.C.

Hicks joined the Trump campaign in 2015 when she was 26 years old and prior to that she worked for the Trump Organization.
Former White House spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham will also join the National Council for Educational Sciences, an advisory group.
