Journalists piled on criticism after President-elect Trump shot back at Democratic Rep. John Lewis for questioning the legitimacy of the election, many calling attention to the fact that Lewis is a civil rights icon and seemingly ignoring the fact that Trump does not mention race in his tweets.
"Congressman 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 tweeted early Saturday. "All talk, talk, talk - no action or results. Sad!"
Almost immediately Trump was decried by members of the media for "insulting" the black Georgia lawmaker.

We had a District Court Judge in Peabody, Mass who was the outstanding Marine Recruiter in Essex County.
Do a year on the County or come back with the enlistment papers signed. Saved a number of our more way ward young men.
Thanks.
Please see post #61 on this thread.
During the Sessions hearings, how hard would it have been for these so-called Republican strategists to make a poster-sized image of this 2015 photograph and prop it up on a stand in the Senate chamber?
He did participate in the freedom marches, so maybe if we award him with a participation award he’ll go away?
What has he done that would benefit humanity.
Not to give you a short answer, but, no he is not.Not even a mother could love a face like that.
Well, that’s the way it is. He’s supposed to take it the way George Bush took it.
Lewis is a creep. He accused teapartiers of spitting on him and calling him “nigger.”
Pig! Liar! Falsifier!
Benedict Arnold was a wounded war hero!
And just exactly what has he done in the last thirty years?????
He did a piss poor job of it then because there still isn't equality in America. If there was equality in America,I could get away with not paying my income taxes like Al Sharpton or commit any crime I please without suffering any consequences like Hillary Clinton. So if that was what he was doing, he damn sure did not do his job.
Attention, comrades! Deploy the Race Shield!
The a-hole picked a fight and sucker punched Trump and now the mediots are shocked and dismayed that he punched back.
Have you been back?
Few things make me laugh out loud anymore.
FReepers make me laugh on a regular basis.
Great picture. Missed opportunity. Maybe not. I’ll still send it to everybody :)
Not if I can help it.
I don’t blame you.
Mr. Lewis apparently cannot abide a white president. Now what’s the word for that?
Wow. On the ugliness scale, this guy actually gives Harry Waxman a run for his money.
