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.

The day is soon coming when society will no longer be dragged down by these malingering broken-records, endlessly repeating their tired, threadbare racist drivel. Once the last of that generation sautéed in the lie of "overdue reparations" has departed this mortal coil, only then will the rest of rational society have a chance to live free of the accusations and demands of the trained-seal handout entitlement mob.
I agree. He gives me hope too.
LMAO!
Where’s the beef, er, proof?
And since Lewis has a set aside district because he is black I don’t see him as a legitimate representative either
Hey, John, point out all the precinct that turned in 100% of the vote for Trump like they did for Obama and then we’ll talk about legitimate.
John Lewis is nothing more than a ghoul feeding off the carcass of MLK Jr.
He is pathetic, sad, and irrelevant.
Wont be missed for a second when he leaves this scene.
He will be forgotten immediately.
And I don’t see you as a legitimate Congressman.
One of Georgia’s dimmest bulbs
Lewis and Cummings are both poor excuses for humans. Just listen to them talk, it’s embarrassing.
Not to worry..... he is forgiven
he marched with Martin
Hillary was never a legitimate candidate. On the face of it, she was guilty of committing, on a routine basis, security violations that would - rightly - put you or me in the slammer.Obama is scandal free in exactly the same sense that Hillary was a legitimate presidential candidate - levitation via the Big Lie that journalism is objective.
And horrific as server-gate is, Benghazi is as bad. And Obama is complicit.
And we thought these bozos acted insane over W. They are elevating the hissy fit to new heights over Trump.
MLK would shake his head in sorrow if he knew how his dream has been whored out.
Real Americans never say Barack Hussein Obama as legitimate.
this wreaks of racism...
Well, I don’t see the CBC as a legitimate legislative body, so I guess we’re even.
But I haven’t heard one person claim what was in the emails influenced a vote. There may have been some Bernie folks who stayed home once they learned their man got screwed
