Smithsonian Chief Calls Out Trump for Wanting to Close African American Museum on MLK Day; Saying He Didn’t Want to See Anything ‘Difficult’

AmeriKKKa’s favorite president had special requests for the National Museum of African American History and Culture on his first visit back in 2017.

 

The newly appointed Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie G. Bunch III offers some revelations about the then soon-to-be president’s visit in his upcoming memoir, A Fool’s Errand: Creating the National Museum of African American History and Culture in the Age of Bush, Obama and Trump, that may not shock at all—but is disturbing nonetheless.

 

For starters, Trump requested his visit to be on the nationally observed Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday.

Sounds like a good idea right? Great for optics in some circles.
