NEW YORK POST
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi plans to skip President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next week, while former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama are not expected to attend the post-swearing-in luncheon at the US Capitol.
Pelosi (D-Calif.), 84, an ardent foe of Trump who is recovering from hip replacement surgery, had attended the 45th president’s inauguration in 2017.
Her spokesperson confirmed the decision, first reported by ABC News, to multiple outlets and did not provide an explanation.
Pelosi joins a handful of House Democrats, including Bronx and Queens Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who will give the Jan. 20 festivities a miss.
