Michael Eric Dyson @ Aretha's services: "..giving honor to President Clinton and her husband Bill

[iluvtennis]

..." That made me laugh out loud and I'm at work.

He said it as part of acknowledging all of the stars and dignitaries that were on the main podium.

He also ripped into trump about Trump saying Aretha had worked for him. He called Trumpty Dumpty an orange clown.

Maybe someone can find a link. Dr Dyson spoke around 210pm PDT.
