Minneapolis mayor sobs uncontrollably at gold coffin of George Floyd as MLK III, Rev. Jesse Jackson, rapper T.I and actor Kevin Hart join mourners at memorial led by Rev. Al Sharpton wearing one black glove

Civil rights activist Al Sharpton attacked President Donald Trump and vowed not to let those with agendas use George Floyd as prop during his powerful eulogy for the man who was anonymous in life but sparked global protests for justice in death.

Hollywood celebrities, musicians and the politically powerful filed into a sanctuary in front of the golden casket of Floyd for a memorial service on Thursday as mourners began a three-city farewell.

The service unfolded at the Lindquist Sanctuary at the North Central University as a judge less than a mile away set bail at $750,000 each for three of the four fired Minneapolis police officers charged with aiding and abetting murder in his death.

The memorial drew the Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sen. Amy Klobuchar and members of Congress, including Reps. Ilhan Omar, Sheila Jackson-Lee and Ayana Pressley. Among the celebrities in attendance were T.I., Ludacris, Tyrese Gibson, Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish and Marsai Martin.

The perfect ending of this charade would have been an arc light raid dropping cluster bombs.

It’s officially not a racist thing unless Jesse and Al are there.

People around the country are going to see this and resent what the left has done to them, while they excuse others from violating the rules imposed on everyone else.

IF Klobuchar did her job, none of this would ever had happened.

Absolutely true.

But media says she let the copy go on "another case, not this one so she is not to blame."

If she becomes VP and Biden is removed, she will be a new Hillary with deadly errors of incompetence and like Hillary will say "At this point, what does it matter?"
