Vice President Mike Pence is reportedly expected to attend. A source close to Pence told CNN, “That’s the plan.” He is reportedly waiting for an invitation.
A source also said, “It was a much more difficult decision days ago, but less difficult now,” according to Politico, seemingly referring to pressure Pence faced from Trump this week to help him overturn the election results.
Pence’s spokesperson Devin O’Malley, however, said the vice president and the second lady “have not yet made a decision on their attendance.”
