Okay, sure. You can say that he's going to flop and that his preparations are inadequate, but the real crime is that she was asked what Trump was doing to honor Dr. King today, and her reply, "He really working hard on trying to help the investor class a lot more in the near future."

Neither his likelihood of success nor precisely how hard he worked on the issue is what makes this statement a complete abomination.

If what you learned from Dr. King was, "Gosh, I really need to help out the billionaires and the Sovereign Wealth Funds that authoritarian regimes create to bleed wealth from the 99% in the countries that they rule," then you are a GIANT FUCKWEASEL.

The letter K is literally the only thing that Smellyanne and MLK have in common.

If Dr. King were alive today, saying and doing precisely the same things he did and said before he was murdered, Donald Trump would be the loudest in denouncing him -- incoherently, illiterately and mendaciously, with his stupid turned up to the max, but very loudly. The Republican party too. Behind closed doors, Trump, Barr, Nunes and the rest respect and admire King about as much as J. Edgar did.

Yep. He'd call him an sob and say he needed to leave the country.

It's not like she could just come out and say, "Pres. Trump is a racist asshole, and always has been, and probably hated MLK when he was alive. So The Pres. Won't be doing anything to commemorate or celebrate MLK. He is druged up worrying about the impeachment and making a fool of himself at Davos, as usual."

He had to add an “11” to his stupid knob.

Hey what a fun coincidence, “stupid knob” is what people in the UK call him!

If Dr. King were alive today, our dear Preznut would have him arrested again.

It would have been stupid but ok had she stayed in her lane, but purporting to speak for Dr. King is a bridge too far.
