Reverend Billy Graham’s service in the Capitol Rotunda is currently underway.
As you can see, MANY big names in Washington have shown up to pay their respects.
Graham has influenced and united many from both sides of the aisle, and all walks of life. Mourning his death and paying respects is not a partisan issue.
Presidents George W. and Clinton have already done so. President Trump is attending the Capitol Rotunda service, as well as in North Carolina later this week.
Obama? Too busy for any of it. He’s got a library to build… or something.
Former President Barack Obama is not planning to attend memorial services for the late evangelist Rev. Billy Graham this week.
Obama’s office disclosed the former president’s plans Monday.
Former President George W. Bush is paying his respects to Graham, known as the pastor to presidents, Monday afternoon at his library in North Carolina. Former President Bill Clinton will visit Tuesday to honor Graham’s memory.
President Donald Trump is expected to attend Graham’s funeral Friday in North Carolina after the preacher lies in honor at the U.S. Capitol this week.
It’s not like there was only ONE opportunity to do so…
He obviously just had no interest.
Additionally, his buddy Louis Farrakhan probably wouldn’t approve of him going.
Louis Farrakhan is a racist bigot, who hates gays & white people.
We must publicly shame Farrakhan and anyone who supports him.
Yes, including people like Obama & Keith Ellison. #Farrakhan pic.twitter.com/AtzFCm7sAu
