“To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.” — however, Vice President Mike Pence will be attending.

To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.

Celebrations will be much ‘smaller’ due to COVID-19 according to Biden when he urged his supporters to not travel to Washington, D.C. In hopes. The upcoming administration wanted virtual parades on Pennsylvania Avenue, but they were later scrapped.

On Wednesday, Trump held a Rally where he told his supporters to march to the Capitol. It turned ugly when protestors were allegedly let in by Capitol Police putting a halt to the Electoral College Certification for Joe Biden.

Due to Nancy Pelosi who is trying to impeach the President, creating a security risk of another war, Trump accordingly defended his acts of going to the Inauguration to celebrate the transition.

In the past, three Presidents have skipped Inaugurations.

President Andrew Johnson skipped Ulysses S. Grant’ Inauguration in 1869. President John Adams and President John Quincy Adams both skipped Inaugurations after losing during the early 1800s.
