It would have been a nice olive branch to have Elija Cummings there w/Pence, Individual-1

But no. You could see tRump pat the white man helping as they symbolically walked a few paces forward with him and the wreath. That would have been a nice gesture from a president to bring people together, but then we know Individual-1 has no intention of bringing Americans together.

Very unpresidential, if you ask me.



Things did not go well when Trump and Pence tried to use MLK Day to distract from their government shutdown. http://ow.ly/FHcl30novgl
