Donald Trump has left the White House as President for the very last time, bringing to an end a tumultuous, chaotic and often disastrous four years as President of the United States.
Trump, who became the only President in history to be impeached twice in the wake of the Capitol riots that left five people dead, has already confirmed that he will not be attending his successor Joe Biden's inauguration, breaking with long-standing tradition.
Prior to his permanent ban from the platform, Trump took to Twitter to write "To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th."

"I am especially proud to be the first president in decades who has started no new wars," Trump added.
Meanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence took to Twitter to issue a farewell after his tenure in the White House.
Sharing a series of pictures from his time in office, he wrote: "Thank you for the privilege of serving as your Vice President these past four years, it has been the greatest honor of my life.

Joe Biden calls Donald Trump one of the "most incompetent presidents" in US history:Donald Trump will depart the White House for Florida, it is widely believed, with Forbes reporting that moving vans had arrived at Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida on Monday.
Trump has made no public announcement on where he plans to live as he faces the reality of life after the White House, but Bloomberg, citing "people familiar with the matter", reports that he intends to live at the Palm Beach resort.
Incoming President Joe Biden is to be sworn in as President of the United States today, while Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will take the oath of office alongside him in Washington DC.
Security has been tightened in the wake of the Capitol riots that saw five people lose their lives, the BBC reports, with some 25,000 troops set to guard the inauguration ceremony.
It has been reported that Palm Beach locals have protested Trump's alleged decision to live at Mar-A-Lago, citing a 1993 agreement that prohibits club members from staying at the resort for more than 21 days a year. The property being converted into a private members club was reportedly contingent on this agreement.
According to CNN, Trump is now scheduled to appear at Joint Base Andrews for a short farewell ceremony before embarking on his last presidential flight to Palm Beach.
