    1. @MR DEW I didn’t ask for your 2 cents worth here!! Can we just honor a Gem gone on to his reward and pay our proper respects? Your Lil addition here is stupid!!!

    2. @MR DEW Your DNA and melanin determine your race, but your brain determines your vote. If you think Trump, who has been determined by court to participate in red lining his daddy’s NYC real estate, and who has been accused of racial slurs by his niece who heard him , first hand, has your best interest at heart, ever, then you are gullible. The trade zones favorable to black entrepreneurs, which is a very good action, did not originate with Trump but with the only black Republican Senator, Tim Scott of South Carolina. Trump jumped on that bandwagon for his own political expediency and claimed it for his own — most legislators and a majority of the American public endorse that fiscal policy. Just exercise your vote, your way; it would, potentially honor Representative Lewis’s memory.

    3. @Amanda Reiche but why did obama not do those zones? he was there 8 years with biden. And when you blindly trust what mary trump wrote, then ask yourselvf if she knew he was racist, why wait to go public until an election year? – she just wanted to make a quick buck. Biden called young black men predators, and voted for the 94 crime bill and the iraq war. It is funny no one called trump a racist before he was running, even floyd mayweather said that

    4. @MR DEW Trump has been a racist, along with his daddy, from the redlining days in NYC and the embarrassing birther garbage and the end of the elevator diatribe against Mexicans; there are predatory people in every culture and race. Do we start discussing the president’s predatory attitude and approach toward women whom he deems lesser than him, which includes most of us? There is the president and the legislature; the Republicans controlled the Senate and obstructed many positive things Obama proposed. The progress you are talking about was proposed by neither party, specifically the Republican;s who actually had the power to do it.

    1. 2 million americans dont have running water, why do media never talk about that ?? instead they show us a funeral of someone I never knew before today

  1. Donald should already be looking for a freight company to move his belongings from the White House in January.

    1. @john emeigh: He is human. Cory Booker is human. It’s just fine to cry at a solemn time as this.

    2. @J R have you seen cory brag on tv about his biggest crowd size of 200 supporters in his home state and he wanted to be president, hahahah

    3. @MR DEW I remember trump bragging about 1 million attendees and only 6000 showed up. Now that was embarrassing

  2. Ephesians 4 32 and be ye kind one to another tenderhearted forgiving one another even as god for christ sake hath forgiven you this man had a humble heart mr. John Lewis but we got people here today they have a hard heart if a man did nothing to you why will you criticise a man when he is deceased Jesus Christ said they hated Without a Cause and this is the way people are walking around now hating people Without a Cause isn’t it sad to have this in your heart jmw

  3. Does anyone remember when this clown talked about his crowd sizes??? haha 200 people is a big crowd for him in his home state? LOL same day over 20.000 turned out to trumps rally.

  4. The 10th day of the John Lewis corpse tour… “so human” huh? Every one of these goofy politicians is a supporter of the current white supremacist system in place…goofy…

    Whatever you say boomer

    1. Yeah, he’s most definitely a dreamboat! But, I don’t think he’s single…he’s currently dating actress–Rosario Dawson!

    2. @Classy Lady — Apparently so…Rosario just announced she’s moving in with him after the pandemic is finally over!
