President Biden and first lady Jill Biden will attend President-elect Trump’s inauguration. A White House official said the president promised to attend the inauguration no matter who won the election, and the Bidens “are going to honor that promise.”
He said Biden sees going to the inauguration as “an important demonstration of commitment to our democratic values and to honoring the will of the people as we continue to provide an orderly and effective transition.” Trump did not attend Biden’s January 2021 inauguration.
