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.

Here we go again... leftist perverting the meaning of another word. Notice how none of the brain deficient liberals complain about Mexico and Pappy Francis interfering with ‘our’ election? (No, I do not believe Francis is a ‘holy father’)

“But luckily we are a nation of Laws, not personal opinions.”

Not until Jan. 20.

Laws have been meaningless for eight years.

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

So if someone is exposed as a pedophile, do we blame the pedo, or the people leaking the information.

I guess it depends on the politics...

Squishy morals for a civil rights leader.

Yet he enthusiastically supported a guy who could not prove eligibility by refusing to release an authentic long for birth certificate?

John Lews is a partisan hack and a racist. And apparently it’s ok for a biased MSM to try to unduly influence the election with #FakeNews and 11 year old locker room talk

But yeah, let’s blame the Russians with the effect that it helped expose the ROT than was within the Clinton Campaign and the DNC

No matter what happens, Republicans are evil and if you can reduce the thinking to a bumper sticker slogan it can fit very nicely into the kind of peanut brain this doofus has.

This “Congressman” (I use the quotes to emphasize that he may not be a legitimate Representative of the people) just this week grandstanded against Jeff Sessions and a recent photo came out showing him arm in arm with Sessions at the Pettis bridge.

He is a snake!

Trump is a legitimate President, the first one since Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009 when all of our elected and appointed oath takers refused to uphold the Constitution and allowed a self-admitted British subject, not natural born citizen, to usurp the office of President.

Children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of the foreign national parent(s) and are NOT natural born citizens.

On January 20, 2017 at noon when President Trump is sworn in I will unfurl my flag for the first time since Usurpation Day since we will once again have a legitimate President.

That’s okay...I don’t view him as a legitimate Congressman...And anything he may have done to advance civil rights is being undone every time he opens his mouth.
