Trump needs to move his inauguration to Mt Rushmore.
They wouldn’t attend anyhow, probably.
“Biden helped Trump win.”
And maybe even on purpose, judging by that s#it-eating grin he had at his speech after Trump won. He’s happy. Jill’s happy. They stuck it to kaMAla. (IMO)
That’s why I think this is the wrong question. Biden and Harris need to be forced to attend in person, even if they are in cuffs and leg chains.
Trump will always be the greater man and if he does pardon them, he'll go after the others. By giving pardons, Trump will be saying, "I forgive you, go away, I have work to do so lets get busy and all this crap behind us".
Trump can easily make it bi-partisan - no former Presidents sitting in his area for the innauguration - make them sit on their own among the public. That would keep Bush out as well.
So, you would like to have Trump appear just as small and vindictive as the democrats...on a globally aired inauguration? BRILLIANT!
Punishment and discipline/correction can look the same. Don’t focus on the action but the hearts. As a kid you saw punishment but for the parents and the law, hopefully it was disciplining. When as kid you finally learned the difference, then change happened.
What was the democrats heart when they did what they did?
What will be Trumps heart?
I think it will be a focus on justice and putting up barriers for future action. I am all for that.
The swearing in has to be at noon. No way out of it.
Passed by Congress March 2, 1932. Ratified January 23, 1933.
The terms of the President and the Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3d day of January…
I think Biden will attend so that the media will gush over his noble character and contrast it with Trump not attending Biden’s inauguration in 2021.
You may be right. I also think Biden may attend, just to spite Harris. I think he is still angry at her for getting him out of the race, without due process.
Of course not. The ban would be “unpresidential”
There are likely better ways to extract revenge.
