"I think he just grandstanded, John Lewis, and then he got caught in a very bad lie, so let’s see what happens," said Trump, referencing Lewis' initial claim that Trump’s would be the first inauguration he’s missed – despite having previously boycotted George W. Bush's 2001 inauguration.

Lewis’ office later claimed they had forgotten that incident, but Trump said: “You don’t forget something like that.”

Trump said he’d be willing to sit down with Lewis but added, “We’re off to a bad start.”

As for other lawmakers not attending, Trump said, “that’s OK, because we need seats so badly, I hope they give me their tickets."

Any legislator who announced they would not attend should have their tickets voided and re-issued to another person. Otherwise the seats will be full of agitators.

That is exactly what is being schemed! Trump needs to have assigned seats, and any Rat not attending should NOT be allowed to pass to one of their cronies or agitators!

Likely, they’ve been told something bad is going down and want to be far away. Just like the muzzies knew to stay home on 9/11.

I’m thinking that is their strategy. Get disruptors right into the front row seats. They will probably use an agitprop group like code pinko.

Glad Trump called out John Lewis for being such a damn liar.

Idiot Lewis grandstands every time a Republican wins.

Seriously awesome shot... The contempt and hatred in the expressions says it all.

These people should have never been in the powerful positions they occupied because their job was to serve the people and you just know that they did anything but serve the people. They only served their master and themselves.

If they pass their assigned tickets on to other people, the recipients should be arrested for impersonating a congressman.
