It would be like having the KKK attend.

Donald Trump said on Monday that he has no plans to visit the late Congressman John Lewis as the civil rights icon lies in state at the US Capitol. For any past president, this would be shocking, but this president has been stirring racial tension amid the protests over George Floyd’s murder by police officers and during his entire presidency. For a man who can’t even say that black lives matter, his presence isn’t needed.

When Trump was asked if he planned to pay his respects to Lewis, Trump said, “No, I won’t be going. No.” And Americans felt a moment of relief that President Racist McTinyDick will be far away from our late hero. It would be an honor to attend, and Trump is anything but honorable.

Twitter users weighed in.

If Trump chose to attend services to honor Lewis, the president would just try to make the day all about him. It’s a winning decision for everyone that he keeps his racist ass far away from the events meant to honor an immeasurable man, who leaves behind a legacy that this president can never achieve or even understand.
