Not bitter or petty. Nope, not at all.

When Trump did it, it was because he genuinely believed the election was stolen, and was mortified that he would not be able to serve the country he loves more than life itself.
When Michelle does it, she's mean and petty.
Does that about cover it?
I was only joking

John Adams didn't attend Jefferson's inauguration.
But,
I didn't condone his behavior in that regard - in fact, I don't condone his behavior in many regards.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Martin Van Buren, Andrew Johnson, and Donald Trump – failed to attend the Inaugurations of their successors, while two more presidents – Woodrow Wilson and Richard Nixon – did not participate for other reasons.
What about Jack Kennedy? I guess he was on the plane.

Right, and clearly Kamala is being a bit petty.
I would however humbly suggest that any less-than-dignified behaviour the current administration is demonstrating pales into insignificance compared with the pathetic series of childish tantrums we all had to put up with four years ago, and which continued for quite some time afterwards. Indeed, I'm not wholly convinced they ever really ended.

The enmity between Adams and Jefferson was legendary, and lasted for years after Jefferson left office. Of course, they reconciled, much like Obama and Trump seem to have.

These things used to be so much more civilized. Why, I remember when the worst thing that could happen is having the outgoing administration strip the Whitehouse of artwork, silver, and other valuables while the staff damaged and ruined hundreds of thousands of dollars of equipment. Good times!
