This is the way the organization clarified its thinking, point by point:
- “President Trump’s explanation that he won’t go to the Inauguration is being gotten by some of his allies as additional affirmation that the political race was not genuine and is viewed as him repudiating his past case made through two Tweets (1, 2) by his Deputy Chief of Staff, Dan Scavino, that there would be an ‘deliberate change’ on January 20th.

Attempt as online media organizations may to allow calculations to settle on the hard decisions for them, the buck stops with a gathering of people attempting to sort out the best course of action.
