Nancy Pelosi skips Donald Trump's inauguration
Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Democrat Nancy Pelosi, will not attend Donald Trump's inauguration as president on January 20. This is reported by ABC News.
After leaving the leadership role, she has had more freedom to mark her distance by refraining from ceremonies, writes the New York Times. For example, she was not present when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Congress last year.
There will be no organized boycott of Trump's inauguration from the Democrats, writes Politico. On the contrary, a significant number of congressional politicians see a point in being there because their districts moved in Trump's direction in the election.
