John Lewis will be remembered for skipping Trump’s inauguration
From Tommy Christopher:
“It’s a level of narcissism, I mean it’s just all about him,” Chalian said, and went on to add that “it is just astounding still to watch, as much as we understand that Donald Trump is all about Donald Trump, that very moment as he’s laying in the state up in the capital, to make it all about him and he didn’t come to my inauguration, it is exactly what we know Donald Trump to be.”
Camerota agreed, but added “it’s also just the politics of retribution, which we see all the time. I’m not going to go there, he didn’t come to my inauguration.”
Chalian pointed out that even “sitting in the blue room of the White House, this is the president of the United States of America, and it is just personal grievance, it’s not about the country at all.”
“What a baby. I have to say, what a baby. What an incredible baby,” Berman said. “And it’s not just narcissism, it’s petulance. The way he kept on saying ‘Oh, you know, he didn’t come to my inauguration,’ and then to have the gall to say ‘I have done more for Black Americans than anybody else.’”
“You know who has done more for Black Americans than Donald Trump?” Berman asked. “John Lewis.”
