Everyone is entitled to their own decisions. I would love to check out the White House. I think it’s an incredible honor. Everyone that’s an American, if you have that opportunity, it’s an incredible one. So kind of bummed that I missed it, but for me it just didn’t work out.

I have heard people who continue to visit the White House or attend events where trump is also in attendance saying things like "It doesn't matter your politics, as an American it's an honor to meet the president", and yeah, in the past that might have flown, but if I had the chance to have my photo taken with Hitler, there's no way I would 'respectfully decline'... that would be an immediate "fuck no" from me.
