        To quote others, he is #unfit to even say Dr. King's name.

        The people standing in that room waiting for Trump to speak about MLK should either disrupt his speech or walk out.

        Are you working to build someone up or to tear him down? If you think he could do something differently or better, offer constructive criticism. It's possible to disagree with someone, even dislike them personally, and still engage respectfully.

        I don't set my standards according to how low others have set theirs. I like how you used a quick gif to illustrate your comment, though. That's a cool way of pushing back against the context loss of a text-only medium. Tone and body language are so important.

        I hope he’s booed off the stage! He should be forced to read MLK’s words before he can ever speak about him! I bet the racist Stephen Miller wrote his speech. How perfect! 🤪🤮

        Everyone who HAS to be there should turn their backs on him. And everyone reporting on it should put in the context of his racist remarks.
