Clinton Swipes at ‘King Ahab’ Trump During Elijah Cummings’ Funeral

Hillary Clinton took a veiled shot at President Donald Trump while eulogizing House Oversight Chair Elijah Cummings at the late congressman’s funeral.

Clinton began her eulogy by invoking Biblical imagery and noting Cummings’ first name comes from a prophet.

“Like the prophet, our Elijah could call down fire from Heaven,” Clinton said. “But he also prayed and worked for healing. He weathered storms and earthquakes, but never lost his faith. Like that old testament prophet, he stood against corrupt leadership of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel.”

The “Ahab” line prompted laughter and loud applause from the gathered audience

“He looked out for the vulnerable among us,” Clinton continued, then taking another veiled jab at Trump. “He lifted up the next generation of leaders. He even worked a few miracles. And he kept reminding us, life is no dress rehearsal.
