The inauguration of the president of the United States is a ceremony to mark the commencement of a new four-year term of the president of the United State

The inauguration is the ceremony, the swearing in is the important part, he did not say anything about not being sworn in.

We all remember the visual of LBJ being sworn in on the plane from Dallas.

That's my take on the Tweet.

And before that, Calvin Coolidge was sworn in by his father, while visiting family in Vermont.

"Coolidge got the news of [Warren] Harding’s death early the next morning, while visiting family in Vermont. He took the oath of office by the light of a kerosene lamp; his father, a notary public, administered it using the family’s Bible."
