GOP lawmaker on Trump's Lewis tweets: 'Dude, just stop'
The Hill ^ | January 14, 2017 | BROOKE SEIPEL

Posted on 01/15/2017 4:49:23 PM PST by rightwingintelligentsia

Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.) knocked President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday for his response to backlash over attacking Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.).

"Dude, just stop," Amash tweeted, linking to a tweet from Trump.

Trump suggested Saturday that he and Lewis work together to focus on the nation's inner cities after a number of Democratic and Republican lawmakers slammed him for saying Lewis was "all talk" and "no action."

Trump has accomplished more good in 2 months since the election then Amash has probably in his whole life, yet Amash thinks he should give advice to trump about anything?

Then he should definitely increase his tit-for-tat tweets. It’s not like he has other business.

Dude, when did Trump “attack” Lewis? Is pointing out blatant ineffectiveness an “attack” now, dude?

Trump hasn't gotten where he is - a few days away from becoming the most powerful man in the world - by taking advice from nitwits like this. Trump is rewriting the rule books - if this guy Amash has a brain, he'll shut up and take notes.

I think Trump knows how to multitask. Your posts are very telling.

Bypassing the Press is a good thing.

Well, they are the propaganda arm of the DNC.

You don’t call the POTUS or soon to be POTUS “Dude.” I don’t think I even called Bubba Bubba until he left office though I may have called him President Bubba or something else.

So, too, do you know virtually nothing about me.

I can infer some things, however, from what you write....as you can from my writings.

Endorsing Amash, who is an unrepentant #NeverTrumper — to this day! — and then twisting the phrase “God will not be mocked” and replacing the word God with Trump, gives me an idea where your head is at.

Two years from now:

“Dude, where’s my car?”

“You parked it in a spot reserved for members of Congress, so it’s at the impound yard.”

Libertarian-leaning, but he was obviously okay with Hillary winning. Awesome.

Amash is a good man, but he is obviously nutty in this case with this remark. Michigan voters love Amash. He’ll be reelected in 2018. He’s seen as a future president. Maybe in 2024.

“Rep. Justin Amash “

He’s my rep.

And he’s just lost a vote.

No one asked him to chime in. Especially since his district is one of the most conservative in the state, and the left would LOVE to bump him off.

Republicans need to stop playing nice and keep on attacking the ‘rats. That is a big reason Trump won. Conservative Americans were waiting for a street fighter and we have one in DJT.
