By now you’ve probably seen this photo from Aretha Franklin’s funeral with Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Bill Clinton…

Liberals: Radical hate preacher Louis Farrakhan isn't part of the Democratic party!

Also: Farrakhan sits next to Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, & Bill Clinton. pic.twitter.com/hkludPuGhp

Or ABC News:

But why was Farrakhan even up there in the first place?

Farrakhan sitting next to Michael Eric Dyson. I wonder if @CNN and @MSNBC are okay with that. Spoiler: we all know the answer.

I’m going to go out on a limb and predict you’ll never see Farrakhan, Sharpton, Jesse and Bill Clinton seated side by side on MSNBC ever again.
