The latest media-manufactured controversy surrounding President-Elect Trump involves Congressman John Lewis, who won’t be attending the inauguration because he believes that Mr. Trump will be an illegitimate president. (He reportedly believed the same about George W. Bush.)

American Thinker editor Thomas Lifson has written a very good piece about how the congressman shouldn’t be considered immune from criticism simply because of his background as a civil rights leader.

MLK voted Republican for most of his life until the Kennedy’s blackmailed him into voting Dummycrat.

Fundamentally he wasn’t a party man, he believed in entrepreneurship, dismissed PC culture and wanted civil rights protest to be expressed peacefully and demonically. The BLM fools would have disgusted him.

If he were alive today he would be on the Trump train
