WASHINGTON ― Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) will not attend President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday, her spokesperson confirmed to HuffPost.
It’s not clear why. Her spokesperson gave no reason and did not respond to a request for further comment.
The California Democrat called Trump’s comments about her family “sick.”
“To make a joke of that, and then they laughed at that, so that the trauma of it all is not just the physical, but the impact of the rest of it,” she said during an appearance on “The View” in September.
Pelosi broke her hip in December during a trip to Luxembourg. But amid her recovery, she returned to the U.S. Capitol for the first day of Congress and then again for the counting of electoral votes on Jan. 6.
