Not even welcome
Interesting observation.
Just imagine Trump there. Trump who was sued along with his father for racial discrimination in housing.
The Justice Department sued Donald Trump, his father, Fred, and Trump Management in order to obtain a settlement in which Trump and his father would promise not to discriminate. The case eventually was settled two years later after Trump tried to countersue the Justice Department for $100 million for making false statements. Those allegations were dismissed by the court.
…
The lawsuit was based on evidence gathered by testers for the New York City Human Rights Division, which alleged that black people who went to Trump buildings were told there were no apartments available, while white people were offered units.
Just yesterday, he publicly announced he’s bringing back racial discrimination in housing.
So, yeah, his presence at John Lewis’s funeral would not have been welcome.
I am hoping that this Republican president will be remembered as the worst US president.
I very much fear that, given his invasion of US cities and his evident desire to invade more, that he will be remembered as the last president.
Of course, although I very much hope that will be because the institution gets abolished, I fear it will be because the US disintegrates.
The way things are going, I’m actually far from convinced that there will be anyone left to remember anything
