Politics · Dec 29, 2024 · BabylonBee.com

U.S. — In yet another blow to President-elect Trump, aides have announced that former President Jimmy Carter will also be skipping Trump's inauguration.

Carter joins the growing list of several prominent Democrats who will not be attending Trump's inauguration, a sign of the deep divisions still plaguing the country.

"We are saddened to learn that President Carter will also be skipping the inauguration," said an aide for Trump. "While we are sure Carter has his reasons, Trump looked forward to welcoming every leader to this new chapter. We continue to hope that this next year will be one of healing divisions and coming together."

At publishing time, Biden had announced that he too was dead and would not be attending the inauguration.
