    Is there any sane argument behind believing this isn't a good idea?

    If he deserves to be President today, he should be there during the transfer of power.

      Maybe his tweet was cut off. His reason for not attending is he'll be in jail?

        If you want to up the chances of having the transfer of power be a shitshow, by all means, have this embarrassment attend. If you want to up the chances of having a peaceful transfer of power, the embarrassment should keep his ass in a bunker from now until it's over.

          I can't think of one.

          Unless he tries to organize another assault.

          You were warned.

            I ran out of gas! I got a flat tire! I didn’t have change for cab fare! I lost my tux at the cleaners! I locked my keys in the car! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN’T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!

            I was only joking

              I think it's incumbent on him to go and behave.

              He thinks there was fraud, so he tried what he could legally to overturn that and then some. But it's over now. Even he said that.

              If he can't go and behave (i.e., be the President), he should resign today.

                He could still show up.

                After all, he told all the protesters that he was going to join them in their march on the Capitol, and then he fucked off and presumably went home to watch American Carnage on TV.

                  I thought his twitter account was shut down

                  I remember I was happy that Mr. Nixon was not in attendance at Mr. Ford's swearing-in

                  With Mr. Trump not in attendance, wouldn't it be a nice gesture, and a nod toward precedent, if Mr. Biden were to reach out to Trump supporters with an opening line like Mr. Ford's?

                  I am acutely aware that you have not elected me as your President by your ballots, and so I ask you to confirm me as your President with your prayers.

                          Johnson was not there for Grant. It's not required.

                            But Kennedy was there for Johnson, in body if not in spirit.

                              At this point he shouldn’t attend. It’s a very wise choice. Period.

                                          Is there any sane argument behind believing this isn't a good idea?

                                          If he deserves to be President today, he should be there during the transfer of power.

                                          Johnson was not there for Grant. It's not required.

                                          I think it's only happened 3 times. Johnson was the latest (150 years ago?) and the other two times were when Beethoven could still hear.
