Donald Trump and Martin Luther King Jr. have a lot in common, especially in their mugs — at least that’s what some on the right are saying … on a momentous day, no less.

The reason so many of these right-wing figures are suggesting DT and MLK are one in the same here, apparently, has to do with how they look in the police booking photos.

60 years ago Martin Luther King Jr. led 250,000 people to March on Washington in peace and the Reverend spoke about his dream for equality in America.
This is the same dream President Trump has fought for his entire life. MLK Jr. would be disgusted with the treatment Trump has…

Now, as you might imagine … there’s been a lot of outcry over the viral juxtaposition. The argument on the other side of this is … Trump is not the martyr his base is trying to make him out to be, and he certainly shouldn’t be mentioned in the same convo as MLK at all.
