John Lewis: ‘I Don’t See Trump as a Legitimate President’
NBC News ^ | January 13, 2017 | Matt Rivera

Posted on 01/13/2017 12:21:45 PM PST by GuavaCheesePuff

In an exclusive interview with NBC News' "Meet the Press," Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) said he does not believe Donald Trump is a "legitimate president," citing Russian interference in last year's election.

Asked whether he would try to forge a relationship with the president-elect, Lewis said that he believes in forgiveness, but added, "it's going to be very difficult. I don't see this president-elect as a legitimate president."

When pressed to explain why, he cited allegations of Russian hacks during the campaign that lead to the release of internal documents from the Democratic National Committee, and Hillary Clinton's campaign co-chairman, John Podesta.

This is not the congressional moron who didn’t want to deploy any additional troops to the island of Guam because he was afraid it might capsize, is it?
= = = = = = = =
I don’t believe so

HE is the congressional moron that claimed the sharks were still swimming the slave trade routes because 100,000,000 were thrown overboard while in transit to here.

R Limbaugh pointed out the amount of years and the # that Lewis claimed would have added up to far to many victims.

Lewis proved he was ‘paying attention’ because he halved the number of those thrown overboard.

Rush just reworked his ‘thesis’ and the numbers were still unreasonable, unbelievable and not true by any stretch of the imagination.

SOME of these idiots are so f’n dense that you can’t even embarrass them out of office - Then again, what does it say about the people that keep sending them back to ‘rule over us’ year after year after year???

Is there anything more stupid, more racist or more anti-American than the Congressional Black Caucus?



Aside from the NON-BLACK Caucus that permitted the racist Black Caucus to form and operate independently in a gang-like style, I'd say the abundant respect and reverence the Black Caucus is given is equally stupid, racist and anti-American!

50 years ago, Lewis was attacked by dogs that were set upon him by a Democrat sheriff, in a city run by a Democrat mayor, in a state governed by a Democrat governor, in a country whose president was a Democrat. Yet, he ran for Congress as a Democrat. Is he insane? Evidently he is, from his disgusting and insane remarks about Trump.

I am so sick of this guy being untouchable because he is a Civil Rights “icon.” He’s been saying insane and hateful stuff for years. It’s time for him to retire.

And speaking of saying stuff, how can anyone understand this guy—how about some diction lessons!

I'd be hard pressed to name another man who's gotten more mileage out of one march than this old racist, Congressman John Lewis.


Selma, Alabama, March, 7, 1965 (Bloody Sunday)



He was inspired to action after listening to MLK on the radio and soon became a leader in SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee).

Just checked to see the committees that Congressman Lewis is on.
Just the ‘Ranking member’ subcommittee on ways and means oversight.
Member subcommittee on health.
That’s it? John Lewis must not be the heavy weight everyone thinks he is.

To paraphrase:

"Donald J. Trump, President. So saith the Electoral College and the certifiers thereof. Donald J. Trump is president, and will have been; Johnny Lewis is not, and never will be."

He loves to whine about the civil rights fights, marching to Selma, crossing the bridge.....but never points out that Alabama and George Wallace were strongly DEMOCRATS....the entire segregated south with the white only/black only water fountains, schools, restaurants etc. were DEMOCRATS.... as the Ku Klux Klan.....They hate blacks, Republicans and Catholics with the same vigor.....

I don't see John Lewis as a legitimate United States representative.

He is a member of a party that harbors and protects satanic pedophile rapists, who collaborate with Islamic jihadists to overthrow the United States government.

Two can play that game.

The United States senators from California and Michigan are NOT legitimate.

Dianne Feinstein, Kamala Harris, Debbie Stabenow and Gary Peters need to resign from their offices immediately.

The California US senators were elected with massive voting by illegals.

The Michigan US senators were elected through proven Detroit vote fraud.

Unless they resign, any legislation they vote on or have voted on is illegitimate.

Sorry - this is the way The Game is going to be played from here on in.

Further illegitimate US representatives and US senators will be identified in the future, on a case-by-case basis.
