Guessing it is common for the state department to send a representative. Perhaps the Secretary of State since it’s an important neighbour. Since it’s campaign time, you could see others going if they believe it helps their reelection bid somehow ( though I don’t know how), but it would not be unusual if only the US ambassador to Mexico is present. I don’t know of any foreign politician that attend the US presidential inauguration.
Legitimate question: Who exactly is it that won’t attend her inauguration? Were they invited, but refused to attend? Who else from the US is going?
Also, congrats to Mexico! sounds like a great choice for a president!
Yeah, I’d be interested in how many people go to the inauguration of other countries heads of state.
Like, my best guess is that it’s a dig at, like, Gov Abbott, but I agree that I don’t think I’d expect him to, even if he was a Democrat.
When was the last time Mexico attended a US Presidential Inauguration lol
Spiderman pointing at Spiderman
Also, is it normal for them to attend, or are we just making this great Mexico news about America?

I mean you have to assume they’re talking about like the governor of Texas or something, but I’ve never heard of them attending before.
I will NOT be attending, so I’m on the list. I can’t go, but I won’t be going, either, as I neither have an invitation nor the means to do so.
Yeah I’m confused as to why that sentence was in the announcement.
