Former Vice President Mike Pence has been confirmed to attend President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on Monday. This confirmation comes after initial uncertainty due to Pence's travel in Asia. This will mark the second recent occasion where Pence and Trump will be in the same location, with the first being at President Jimmy Carter's funeral earlier this year.
During their previous encounter, Pence congratulated Trump, but it was noted that former second lady Karen Pence did not greet the president-elect. The upcoming inauguration will bring them together once again, highlighting the transition of power in the United States.
It is worth mentioning that Pence and Trump will also find themselves in a familiar setting from four years ago. This location holds significance as it was where Pence was evacuated to a secure location within the Capitol during the violent insurrection on January 6. The presence of both individuals at this event underscores the complex and interconnected nature of American politics.
