Former Obama White House adviser Valerie Jarrett said on Saturday that President Trump has not been invited to participate in the opening ceremony of the Obama Presidential Center.
According to a press release, the Obama Presidential Center’s grand opening celebrations will begin on June 18 and last through June 21, including "a series of events that bring together the changemakers, community members, volunteers, and supporters who made the Obama presidency a reality and that welcomes visitors to celebrate the power of hope and change."
Jarrett spoke about the upcoming opening ceremonies for the center on MS Now’s "The Weekend" with Jonathan Capehart, who asked, "So when things like this presidential centers or presidential libraries — I was there for President Clinton’s presidential library opening — there are all sorts of dignitaries who are there who are invited. And so I’m just wondering, Valerie, is President Trump invited?"
She gave a response clarifying that only those who played a part in former President Barack Obama’s political journey would be a part of the opening ceremony.
"As I said, this is really a chance for us to celebrate with the people who joined President Obama on this journey, the ordinary people who did the extraordinary things. So, no, but I will say, I hasten to add, that after we open to the public, should President Trump want to come and tour the center, President Obama would be delighted for him to do so."
"That was a very heavy ‘No,’ Valerie," co-host Eugene Daniels chuckled.
"And I’m curious what you think about a country feeling beleaguered, President Obama being the person who represented hope. What does it mean that this center will open under the backdrop of all of that that’s going on in this country right now?" Daniels asked.

I assume Valerie Jarrett made sure Roseanne Barr wasn’t invited.
Who said Mr. Trump wants to attend the opening of the Obama temple?
Why Valerie? Because he’d bring a little class to the place?
You're welcome.
😀😁😁😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😃😃😃😄😄😄😅😅😅🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😎
Trump tower or the grotesque Obama moseleum. That purple lipped thin man hates all things good and beautiful and wants to make sure everything he did is remembered as repulsive and ugly like a good soviet.
(Valerie Jarrett reveals that President Trump isn’t invited
to Obama Presidential Center opening ceremony)
Thank God..
President Donald Trump needs to STAY FAR AWAY
from Son of Satan Barack Hussein Obama. 🙏🙏🙏
They didn’t invite me, either - they were afraid I’d bring a howitzer with me and give it the opening it deserves.
ValJar, go directly back to Tehran ground zero you Piece of Schiff foreign traitor!
Send her to make contact with Iranian detectors, Make her bring Susan rice, as a netflix op, let the natives have their Obama scalps.
Valerie Jarrett and Susan Rice scalps would be big sellers!
H gosh. What a shame.
Oh no! If I was invited, I’d decline on the basis that I need to rearrange my sock drawer.
He probably will also be uninvited from the World Architecture Master Prize aawards ceremony when Obama’s building wins it. Still I think Trump will invite Obozo to the Whitehouse Ballroom opening so he and Mike can see what real architecture and design is all about.
President Trump should organize a three day Celebration of America Rally next to the Hussein Lie-brary opening.
There could be booths to highlight the greatness of America.
There could also be booths that concentrate on the largest debacles of the Hussein/Biden/Harris Regime. Each booth could highlight a different aspect.
The Invasion At The Border Booth
The UN-AFFORDABLE Healthcare Debacle Booth
The America No Longer Bows Booth with photos of all the times Hussein bowed.
Who woke the sleestak?
