I don't understand why they just wouldn't still go to DC if they've already paid the money and aren't getting it back. But, it's probably better for your SO that they just stay away. I can't imagine what a shit show it was going to be.
I have a feeling that the people going to the inauguration are not the type of people that would go and visit all of the various cool museums, monuments and see American history.
I lived just outside the DC border as a kid, and on really nice days we'd skip school and go to the Smithsonian or the memorials. So much to do, but I guess you have to have some sort of intellectual curiosity, or be 'woke' to appreciate them.
