(with the exception of Tulsi Gabbard). Seriously NO Republican's skipped out on Obama's First Inauguration Day. Some skipped his second one, but the majority of those had attended his first one.
For one, they are acting as partisan as they claim the Republicans were for the last 8 years.
I saw the language as divisive, but I also agree that the whole not showing up is just as much so. When my wife and I were talking about all of this and she was in support of them boycotting I told her that HRC will be there. If HRC can be there, then anyone that is traditionally expected to be at the event can be there. Period.
