Well-stated, Senator.
“Lose the martyr complex, Lewis. You weren’t the only civil rights activist to get roughed up by the police and it doesn’t give you license to delegitimize the will of the American electorate.”
Trump is popping this guys bubble the same way he did with the ‘war hero’ McCain. And it’s about G.D. time too. Go Donald!!!
I love that Trump is doubling down on this dope (and there’s no other word for someone so partisan and stupid to insist that Donald Trump isn’t a legitimate President).
The press, meanwhile, has their panties in a twist, not just that Trump dared to attack a “Saint” like Lewis, but that he dared to do it (GASP!) so close to Martin Luther King Jr. day.
I’d say “give me a break,” but, of course, they never, ever, ever will.
This was out there but not being reported. NOW it will be reported!
Nope. He's bursting the liberal balloon right in front of people.
Not a waste of time. It exposes the MSM and liberals lies. It keeps the msm and liberals on defense. Trump controls the media narrative. Trump appeals to his base.
I’m glad that President Trump is swinging back. John Lewis is a liar, a race baiter and not an honorable man. He (and his fellow race-baiting liars) need to be called out on their lies.
Lewis is a 100% racist.
“Trump himself is the only one who would ever bother wasting his time with this sh!t. “
It’s a FAR BETTER plan to just let it ping-pong around and gain traction without answer because it will totally show how petty and terrible the left is, right?
Like the GOP has done for decades?
How’d that work out?
Disagree! Trump is entitled to his own style. Like it or lump it, Trump is not going to be pushed around by anybody and Lewis is the big loser on this one. Take a look at the blacks denouncing him....even a former Black Panther! These idiots and long time suckers on the government teat need to be flushed out of the system. Lewis needs to go right along with all the rest of the big mouthed nothings..
How dare you? John Lewis is a “Civil Rights MORON”!
This kind of direct reach to the people is going to make a lot of liberals think twice before taking on the President of the United States. At least they will fact-check what they say.
John Lewis was operating under the old rules of the game where he could say whatever he wanted, knowing that the conventional media would back him up and that the Republicans would cower in silence, out of fear of being labeled racists.
The game has changed.
Call them out! Stomp’email down! That’s what has to be done.
No Trump does NOT need to ignore him. That’s what W did and he became a punching bag totally destroyed by the left
He need to let these people know there will be a price to pay. Cut their staff budget to one person, eliminate their parking spot or get rid of their use of government cars. Make them fly home economy. There are a thousand ways.
Not email! Stomp’em down!
Sorry.
He needs to ignore that twitter account, except to convey information about what he is doing to better the country and to correct the misinformation by the MSM. I think he would be wise to back way off on the personal attacks, even when the other party started it. Just my opinion.
lewis is making himself look like a self-righteous, racist crybaby ....
I love these people spouting the same bromides that have been making us losers since Reagan.
NEWSFLASH: Trump is something new: deal with it.
Agree 100%.
Excellent post!
YOU need to ignore what crybabies call “personal attacks,” and recognize the only way for Trump to say anything LESS vanilla is to say nothing at all.
