In 2016, 50 House Democrats boycotted Trump’s inauguration. Despite that most Republicans attended Biden’s inauguration even though D.C. was effectively under martial law and military forces were deployed everywhere in one of the most shocking scenes in American history.
Only about 4 GOP House members reportedly skipped the 2020 Biden inauguration. A few Senate members, including Sen. Marco Rubio, also avoided the event.
But a Democrat boycott of Trump’s second inauguration is already gathering steam.
Axios reports that 13 House Democrats are definetly not attending, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib and AOC, another 20 are ‘undecided’ and only 44 will be attending.
In the Senate, 10 Dems are ‘undecided’, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren who claims, “I haven’t thought about it.” (Really? A Senator hasn’t thought about what she’s doing a week from now?)
And 11 are attending.
So the more things change, the more they stay the same.
