Trump unleashes Twitter attack against congressional critic

NEW YORK — Donald Trump is lashing out at a Georgia congressman who described the Republican as an illegitimate president.

Trump tweeted on Saturday that Democrat John Lewis "should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart (not to mention crime infested) rather than falsely complaining about the election results."

Trump — who'll be sworn in this coming Friday — continues to use Twitter to attack his adversaries as he did throughout the campaign.

Lewis says he'll skip Trump's inauguration. The longtime civil rights leader says it'd be the first one he'll miss since coming to Congress three decades ago.

Lewis told NBC's "Meet the Press" that he doesn't consider Trump a "legitimate president" and blames the Russians for helping him win.

So Lewis doesn't consider President Trump a legitimate president?

The phony one is cleaning out his sock and undies drawer kin a few days and moving off to......DC where he'll behave like a cancerous cyst on the president's back.

You have to at least consider that Lewis got his head bashed in once to many as one of MLK’s lieutenants/gofers. IMO, he’s just not right in the head.

If Lewis and his buddies keep this up, they’ll make Trump one of the most popular presidents in modern history. JMHO.

Democrats run their cities and states into the ground. Obama came close to destroying this country. They have no good record and are divisive.

I love it, Trump doesn’t take any crap from these punks. Illegit my ass. Can you imagine if a white Congressman said that about Obama in 2009 a week before his inauguration? They’d be branding him as KKK and Hitler for the next 20 years.

All true. Lewis’ words to me are like an errant fart on the wind.

AS a reminder to congressman Lewis:

Congressional oath of office:

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

Even though there's not a shred of evidence of that, but who needs evidence when you can create your own fantasy world.

John Lewis reminds me way too much of a Sontatan from Doctor Who...

Can't he smile a little more instead of looking perpetually hostile?

"The Russians exposed Pizzagate and Clinton's treason.
That exposure is wrong."

I for one am getting immense joy at watching Trump slap these bastards back on their heels...

They simply are not used to the idea a republican will not roll over and cower in fear...

Lewis has been a race-baiting whoremaster his entire adult life. From his Ivory tower government perch he has presided over the destruction of the black family while enriching himself.

The left’s hypocracy knows no bounds.
