Not Trump&#8217;s Twitter account&#8230;which is shut down. It was put out on the White House Twitter\/YouTube account.  <\/p>\n<p>Trump still has not conceded the election that he clearly lost. Nor has he called President-elect Joe Biden to congratulate him. Not that Biden cares.  <\/p>\n<p>In addition to his second impeachment and the hostage video, Trump&#8217;s relationship with his bestie, Rudy Giuliani, is on thin ice. Why? Because Rudy didn&#8217;t deliver&#8230;so now Trump doesn&#8217;t want to pay him. Trump was &#8220;offended&#8221; by Giuliani&#8217;s request for $20,000\/day. The Washington Post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/trump-isolated-impeachment\/2021\/01\/13\/0595675a-55b6-11eb-a931-5b162d0d033d_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reports<\/a> that Trump has told aides not to pay him AT ALL. Trump is also insisting on &#8220;personally approv[ing] any reimbursements for the expenses Giuliani incurred while traveling on the president\u2019s behalf to challenge election results in key states.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">Trump** isn&#8217;t paying his bills?
