Bernice King, the youngest child of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., said that she's "glad" President-elect Trump's inauguration is on the same day as MLK Day, despite that she didn't want Trump to win the presidential election, The Independent reported. “I’m glad that if it was going to happen, it happened on the King holiday, because Dr King is still speaking to us,” Bernice King said. The Independent wrote that Bernice King "sees the January 20 event as a wake-up call for the country and an opportunity to stand up to the incoming administration’s charged agenda items." Bernice King had been "excited" about the idea of seeing Vice President Harris on MLK Day and "hoped the U.S. would elect someone who embodied the values her father did." Bernice King also warned about what Trump winning the presidency could mean for the country. "A Trump win could potentially set in motion a perilous and oppressive presidential administration that would undermine and deny the hard-fought battle for civil and human rights for which my parents and so many others sacrificed," she said, as reported by The Independent.
