Cruise also insulted the president, saying (and I paraphrase) that the president is illegitimate and a nitwit. This is the statement that upset E.D.

I have heard this "illegitimate" claim before.I thought it would eventually go away, but it keeps popping up. I assume it is because he won the electoral college but not the popular vote. That was the scenario that polsters were saying would happen with Gore. Does anyone know a source for Gores statements before the election regarding the electoral college?
