She’s even a slower learner than me, and that’s saying something.

Clarification please? In Lewis’s recent rant I thought I heard him say he has never missed a presidential inauguration during his time in Congress which was in 1986. Tonight on Hannity, it was mentioned that Lewis did not go to Bush’s inauguration either. So did John Lewis lie or did I hear wrong?

Then the “fact checkers” need to call him on it........don’t see that happening and never will, being a national civil rights treasure, lies are allowed.

And Trump did not start this fight. He was attacked by Lewis.

The first thought I had when I heard about Lewis' reaction, was that of the bloodied schoolyard bully, who complained, as he wiped the blood away, "It all started when he hit back."

We’ve all seen this disgusting ploy play out before. This is how the left operates, now more than ever!

As a matter of fact, I just read several transcripts of the NBC/Lewis interview and the “lie” has been scrubbed.

McCain has operated on basically the same strategy through the years: “You can’t criticize me because I was once a POW.”

Of course follow the money.

The CGI must shut down so John needs new resources.

Duh...

Same crap he pulled in 2009, claiming he was spat upon, in broad daylight, with hundreds of cameras on scene and he never presented evidence of such, that DNA could have been taken from the drool.

In short, he is full shit.

Trump had the temerity to respond and now Lewis wallows in victimhood.

Failing to mention that Trump responded to an attack based on an untrue premise, the left is continuing its false narrative and modus operandi.

The press failed to provide the context of Trump's statements.

The press failed to address the destructive policies of Lewis in his own district which is characterized by rampant crime, unemployment, babies by single mothers, fatherless homes, drugs, bred hostility to cops, and the increase in hopelessness created by Obama.

The press failed to mention the lies perpetrated by Lewis over the years.

Yes, Lewis did good some fifty years ago, but since he has failed to carry out the dreams of Martin Luther King.

It appears that Lewis wants to continue his failed policies in spite of Trump's offer to work together to bring hope and prosperity back to the inner-cities.

I know. If only there were a way for non-wonk, MSM-addicted Dems to see this. They’re clueless about the truth — how the Dem lawmakers are doing all they can to keep the blacks on the plantation.
