If Trump went there or attended another celebration of MLK, he’ll just get criticized for it.

If he doesn’t, he’ll get criticized for it.

If he goes one year and doesn’t the next, so what.

I’m glad civil rights have progressed, but I am not a big fan of MLK. I’m not a big fan of this holiday. I’m not a big fan of them naming streets, schools, and other things after him.

My way isn’t for everyone, so I accept that. Let others observe as they see fit.

I don’t dislike King either. I just think things have been blown out of proportion with regard to him.

If you don’t like MLK Day,you really aren’t gonna like Barry Day. That’s what the propagandists are working toward.

“I’m not a big fan of this holiday. I’m not a big fan of them naming streets, schools, and other things after him.”

I also am not a big fan of this holiday.

“I’m not a big fan of them naming streets, schools, and other things after him.”

This is where we disagree - ‘naming streets, schools, and other things after him.’

I have no problem with that, in fact’ I heartily endorse that!

My problem with MLK day is twofold : first, it has completely over-politicized to the point where King’s message has effectively been erased among Americans by the ghetto demagogues, and far-left DNC operatives.

Second, Ronnie could not have allowed another paid Holiday added to the Federal Calendar (long story) and was forced to choose which Federal Holiday to eliminate.

Again, I understand his predicament. My problem (and it is the first thing I remember when I think of Ronnie’s’ missteps) is the fact that the GREAT EMANCIPATOR’S was forgotten in favor of ‘Presidents Day.’

That seems to be equating ‘Honest Abe” to Clinton, or even the Kenyan usurper! Whatever...
