A 59th inauguration will happen no matter what. We have had 45 presidents and 58 inaugurations. Whether that becomes 46 presidents or stays 45 presidents it will be 59 inaugurations
We know that Presidents elected to a second term are inaugurated again. The question is how do you get to 56? Here is what I think is the math: 43 Presidents add 15 elected to a second term ( do not count Cleveland as he is in the above count and was the 22nd and 24th President) add another 2 2 because Roosevelt was elected to a third and fourth term subtract 5 Vice Presidents who became President but were never elected to the office of President 55 Total and Barack's inauguration will make 56.
Swiped the above from somewhere.
That refers to BOs first term so Trump was the 58th making the next one 59th.
There's more inaugurations than presidents since presidents can serve two terms.

A president who served 2 terms has two inaugurations, so like Hussein was the 44th,but was inaugurated 2 times
59th just means we've had 59 inaugurations for 45
READ IT THATS WIERD

Borderline autistic. I’ll trust you on it.
Maybe if you add up all the extra terms for each president it equals 59. Too burned out to do math and history at the same time.
Got it. Thank you all!
Some died / resigned in office.
Multiple term presidents have multiple inaugurations
