'Trump's absence from slain Minnesota lawmaker's funeral goes beyond indifference' [View all]

(By Zeeshan Aleem, MSNBC Opinion Writer/Editor)

'This weekend, over a thousand mourners attended the funeral of former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, who were killed in an attack that Minnesota’s chief federal prosecutor has called an assassination. Former President Joe Biden attended. Former Vice President Kamala Harris was there, too. But the current president of the United States was nowhere to be found.'
