38. Attending his funeral is fundamentally an act of cowardice

They think it could redeem them. They’re mistaken because we know better and Trump’s Deplorables are probably offended that Trump was uninvited. His basest base are probably angrier at them than we are just for not snubbing McCain’s funeral over the snub to Trump.

There’s not much they can do to redeem themselves at this point. They allowed Trump to commit crimes against refugee families and their children. They are part and parcel of the problem.
