NY Mag editor upset that Trump is 'unfortunately' taking office on MLK Day

Two other inaugurations have fallen on MLK Day since its inception, including Bill Clinton's second inauguration in 1997 and Barack Obama's second inauguration in 2013.

But instead, Hartmann regrets, "we'll be swearing in the guy who spent the first MLK Day of his presidency golfing, and who recently bragged that his pre-insurrection speech on January 6, 2021, drew a bigger crowd than King's 'I Have a Dream' speech (which isn't true)."

In Trump's first term, he marked the 50th anniversary of King's assassination.

The civil rights champion is particularly remembered for his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech at the Lincoln Memorial on Aug. 28, 1963, as well as overseeing the Montgomery bus boycott in protest of racial segregation. He also participated in the Selma March, which helped lead to the passage of the Voting Rights Act.
