Nancy Pelosi Declines Invitation To Attend Trump Inauguration

Former House Speaker and Democratic Representative from California, Nancy Pelosi, has frequently emphasized the importance of upholding democratic norms and accepting electoral outcomes. However, her actions seem to contradict her statements. According to ABC News, she has chosen not to attend the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump on Monday. While her office did not provide a specific reason for her absence, it is noteworthy that the 84-year-old recently sustained a broken hip due to a fall in Germany last month.

Pelosi is not the only notable figure to decline the invitation. Former First Lady Michelle Obama will also be absent from President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20. In contrast, former President Barack Obama is confirmed to attend the ceremony, as stated in a brief announcement from the Office of Barack and Michelle Obama.

Additionally, a spokesperson for former President George W. Bush has confirmed that he and former First Lady Laura Bush plan to be present at the Capitol for the inauguration festivities. It is also worth mentioning that Michelle Obama did not attend the recent funeral services for Jimmy Carter, where all living former presidents were gathered, although other former first ladies were present, as reported by CBS News.

Since 2008, Michelle Obama has attended every inauguration, including Trump’s first in 2017, when she and her husband were leaving the White House. Reflecting on her experience at Trump’s inauguration in 2023, she remarked, “To sit on that stage and watch the opposite of what we represented on display, there was no diversity, there was no color on that stage. There was no reflection of the broader sense of America. Many people took pictures of me and they’re like, you weren’t in a good mood. No, I was not.”
