Good, this should be a celebration of Congressman Lewis' life. Don't need him stinking up the place

Obama is giving the eulogy, which Fat Nixon couldn't stand to be present for anyhow. He has to be the bride at every wedding and the corpse at every funeral (thanks to Alice Longworth), and if he has to just sit and listen to a better man being deservedly praised to the skies he couldn't stand it.

no one wants him there either. He can't not bring himself to be the center of attention so he needs to not go.
it would be funny if flotits went and again set next to Obama and we saw a genuine smile on her lips.

chose not to attend the inauguration.
