How is it not legitimate, he won the EC.

Really, because you say so?

Default Trump: Lewis should focus on his congressional district which is falling apart

Trump gets to the point in his latest statements on Lewis. Lewis simply isn't doing an effective job for his district and should refocus.

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. All talk, talk, talk - no action or results. Sad!
The data backs up Trump. Lewis' district ranks very poorly. He's been around a long time. He has failed his people.

Trump isn't going to succeed unless he starts concentrating on the big picture. I say that fully understanding that he hasn't even been sworn in yet but these side distractions need to be ignored.

Once again, Trump is dead on target. You can't be a Demorat and not be a racist hypocrite.

Lewis represents a majority black district where 41% of residents are college grads. I guess it's Lewis' fault that black people are disproportionately poor.

I'm also fairly certain that Lewis is neither mayor nor police chief, but don't let facts get in the way of a Trump propaganda item.

Trump is not capable of ignoring anyone who he perceives as having slighted him. That's one of his many flaws, and it's a big one. He takes everything personally and responds in kind. Not the attribute of a great leader in any way, shape or form.

This.

I just don't understand (much less respect) this every pressing need to publicly acknowledge/defend/respond to any criticism he receives on social media or the news.

Why won't his focus turn to more important national matters?

You are the president! Behave with some modicum of decency and respectability. Behave like an adult. You knew what you were getting in to. Focus on what's important and stop having these childish and petty knee jerk reactions to everything people say about you!!

Geesh..
