Meanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence came under fire after he compared Dr. King to President Trump over the weekend on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” saying, “You think of how he changed America. He inspired us to change through the legislative process to become a more perfect union. That’s exactly what President Trump is calling on the Congress to do.” On Monday, Trump and Pence paid an unannounced visit to the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington, where they stayed for approximately two minutes.
