Trump Would Not be Paying Respect to John Lewis in Washington

As the civil rights icon’s body lay in Capitol Hill, Donald Trump said he would not pay respect to the man who almost died while fighting for equal rights in this country.

Donald Trump, who in recent weeks has stirred racial tensions, says he has no plans to visit the late Congressman John Lewis as the civil rights icon lies in state at the US Capitol.

“No I won’t be going,” the president said. “No.”

The president delivered the news as he left the White House for a trip to North Carolina. As he took reporters’ questions, Mr Lewis’ casket had just arrived at the Capitol, where a military honour guard carried his American-flag draped casket up the white stairs and into the rotunda.

Meanwhile, leaders from around the world join the grieving of Rep. John Lewis.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
