To the question of why Trump was absent at John Lewis's services:

[quote]"I don't know. I really don't know. I don't know. I don't know John Lewis. He chose not to come to my inauguration. I can't say one way or the other" [whether he thought Lewis was impressive].

"I find a lot of people impressive. I find many people not impressive. He didn't come -- he didn't come to my inauguration. He didn't come to my state of the union speeches. And that's OK. That's his right."

"He should've come. I think he made a big mistake."[/quote]

Imagine any other person saying that.
