Given what Trump represents, Barack shouldn't be there either.

[@dpeasehead]

@clarkm8840: But, he will be because standing against anti-black racists like Trump, Musk, or Vivek is not an Obama tradition. Getting "jumped in" on their terms, at any cost is. Badmouthing all black men and black people as if we are all dysfunctional losers and criminals was his trademark while he held office and power. After spending years doing so, and now showing up in a suit with a big grin on his face to honor a white convicted felon with 34 counts should finally show ALL black people what "Obamaism" is all about, zero accountability, moral bankruptcy and opportunism..Just like everyone else in the system..

The idea that a convicted felon, who by the way has deftly avoided other convictions by his delay, delay, delay tactics, will be sworn in as president...again, is both sickening and heartbreaking. What is this time that we are in, in this country called America? It's never been a fair country for Black folks, period. But now there is a person in this country who is indeed above the law.

He is not going to look at Obama, Clinton, etc. being there, he is looking at it like "yea I'm the king and look at them kissing up". Biden, no I wouldn't even asked to use a toilet.
