This decision reinforces Biden&#8217;s commitment to attend the \u2064inauguration of whoever won the election, regardless of \u2063past rhetoric. Andrew Bates, the White House&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">senior deputy press secretary<\/a>, emphasized\u2062 the importance of honoring this promise. This upcoming inauguration comes after the turbulence surrounding the 2020 election and\u2063 Trump&#8217;s refusal to attend Biden&#8217;s inauguration, which followed\u200d claims of electoral fraud\u2064 by Trump and the ensuing Capitol riots on January 6.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Joe and Jill Biden will attend Trump inauguration: White House<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1890815\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>The White House confirmed that President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/joe-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Joe Biden\">Joe Biden<\/a> and first lady <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/jill-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Jill Biden\">Jill Biden<\/a> will attend President-elect <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Donald Trump's\">Donald Trump&rsquo;s<\/a> inauguration on Jan. 20.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/softballs-and-adoration-read-the-questions-reporters-have-asked-bidens-press-secretary\/\" title=\"Softballs And Adoration: Read The \u2018Questions\u2019 Reporters Have Asked Biden\u2019s Press Secretary\">president promised<\/a> that he would attend the inauguration of whomever won the election,&rdquo; Andrew Bates, senior deputy press secretary at the White House, said in a statement, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/white-house-biden-will-attend-trumps-inauguration-january-2024-11-25\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">obtained by<\/a> <em>Reuters<\/em>. &ldquo;He and the first lady are going to honor that promise and attend the inauguration.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden had said he would attend the January inauguration, whether or not it was Vice President Kamala Harris or Trump who won, despite the alarmist campaign rhetoric he used against the Republican nominee.<\/p>\n<p>After the chaos of the 2020 election, which Trump still maintains was stolen, and the Jan. 6 riot, Trump didn&rsquo;t attend Biden&rsquo;s inauguration.
