Surprised not surprised:
Donald Trump, who in recent weeks has stirred racial tensions, says he has no plans to visit the late Congressman John Lewis as the civil rights icon lies in state at the US Capitol.
"No I won't be going," the president said. "No."
Actually, a grateful nation thanks you for not defiling the occasion with your presence.
Meanwhile, the body of Rep. John Lewis lies in state in the Capitol rotunda, surrounded by fellow Congressmen, Senators, other officials, and former Vice President Biden and Jill Biden, all of whom were lifted by his presence among them.
