In Washington, it’s all political.

So was civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis‘ attack on President-elect Donald Trump, calling him “illegitimate” on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” vowing to boycott the inauguration, and saying he wouldn’t invite Mr. Trump to Selma.

“By going to Selma,” Mr. Lewis said of Mr. Trump, “maybe he would learn something.” But, he added, “I would not invite him to come.”

NBC advanced some of Mr. Lewis‘ comments on the Friday before the long Martin Luther King holiday weekend.

[I want the USA back]

In about two weeks this will have mutated into “Trump is racist” for attacking an innocent civil rights leader.

More money they can flush down the toilet like the billion Hillary raised for the election and then Jill Stein’s recount money? A liberal fool and his money are soon parted....

John Lewis is the epitome of a dimoKKKRAT hack.

The fraud Lewis is a low IQ hack, at that.

What would people like John Lewis have done with their lives if they didn’t have Selma to ride as a career?

Fundraisers = Freezer Money

Lewis/Pelosi 2020!!

You heard it here first!!!!

[eyeamok]

Speaker Ryan, even though he is a big POS, should REMOVE Lewis from ALL Committee Assignments, along with All 20 Dem Reps boycotting the Inauguration.

They have nothing but Contempt for the Office of the Presidency and This Country in general, they Should NEVER be allowed to demonstrate their intolerant bigoted views in representing the American People.

Maybe Trump will demand that the COMMON CORE STANDARDS include teaching blacks that slavery was outlawed a long time ago and that they are FREE.

Maybe Trump will demand that the COMMON CORE STANDARDS include teaching blacks that Republicans outlawed slavery a long time ago over the violent objection of the Democrat Party and that they are FREE.

Observing Rep. John Lewis‘ attack on President-elect Donald Trump, calling him “illegitimate” on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” and his vowing to boycott the inauguration; Trump's Twitter response plus the outcry and outrage by the Drive By Media of that response only proves the ultimate Liberal Truth pointed out by George Orwell in his 1945 novel, Animal Farm, that "All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others."

[Larry Lucido]

May I suggest that Messrs. Lewis and the rest make this inauguration day “Not One Damn Dime Day” as they did inauguration day 2005? Oh, wait, that would be the opposite of what they are going for.

The RNC needs to start fundraising off Demoncrap comments.

John Lewis, “icon” my a$$.

Marble mouth-Lewis (I call him Mumbles) just did even more damage to the Black community, he sure as hell didn’t help it.

Mumbles could have chosen to work with our new and “real” president and truly helped his people.

Democrats feel the need to keep the hate alive.....it’s leading to their demise.
