A Democratic congresswoman announced Thursday she plans on skipping Donald Trumps inauguration next week as the 45th president of the United States, vowing instead to spend her time laying the groundwork for resistance.
Rep. Barbara Lee of California said she cant stomach the idea of attending the Jan. 20 ceremony after Mr. Trump ran one of the most divisive and prejudiced campaigns in modern history.
I will not be celebrating or honoring an incoming president who rode racism, sexism, xenophobia and bigotry to the White House, said Ms. Lee, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus.

This one is really butt-hurt. What a racist pig and anti-American. Didn’t she ever hear of losing gracefully? She is the poster child for Loser Rex.

What a dismal stereotype. You'd think she'd want to rehabilitate the Black Congressional image after eight Nationally disastrous years under Obunga's bungling fist.
Typical.

It will be a very much better affair without her. She is a true zero.

Maybe she’ll be so upset that she will resign just to get away from Trump. Hope. Hope.

Stupid dumbass. Ask her some simple questions, like what is Pi or how fast is light speed or how far you would go in one hour at 60 miles per hour. My guess is she would not get one of those questions correct.

Hey Barbie you are the racist.

Can’t you moron democrats come up some other complaints than these? Over and over and over and none of them are true.
