WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- Former first lady Michelle Obama will skip the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, the second time in two weeks that she is not attending a gathering of former U.S. leaders and their spouses, but former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton will be there.

Laura Bush and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will join their husbands for the Jan. 20 swearing-in ceremony at the Capitol, representatives said.

“Former President Barack Obama is confirmed to attend the 60th Inaugural Ceremonies. Former first lady Michelle Obama will not attend the upcoming inauguration,” said a statement from the Office of Barack and Michelle Obama that was shared with The Associated Press.

No explanation was given for why Michelle Obama was skipping Trump's inauguration. She also did not attend former President Jimmy Carter's state funeral in Washington last week. Former Presidents Trump, Obama, Bush and Clinton and their spouses attended — except for her.

I’m surprised W and Laura are going after the childish and embarrassing way they acted toward the Trumps at Carter’s funeral. He clearly has no respect for the office if he couldn’t even shake Trump’s hand. Why are they going?

Barack Obama attended Jimmy Carter’s funeral, but Michelle did not. Barack Obama will be attending the inauguration, but not Michelle. Maybe she just doesn’t want to be around Barack.

They really hate the Bidens-Jill. All of the Bidens.

More so than Trump.

I read somewhere that Michele has her annual prostrate check scheduled for that day.

Big Mike a “No-Show,” to Trump Inauguration 2025

Yes I believe the late comedian Joan Rivers on the subject of Big Mike, a.k,a., Michelle Obama.

Bush?
Didn’t he skip the one in 2017?
And refused to shake Trump’s hand at Carter’s funeral?
