Thousands of people are expected to visit Capitol Hill to pay respects to congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis, but President Donald Trump won’t be one of them. Trump did not say why he was declining to visit Lewis. Lewis was critical of Trump during his time in office. A week before the 2017 inauguration, Lewis said he did not consider Trump a legitimate president. Both Vice President Mike Pence and presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden are expected to pay their respects.
