John Lewis: 'I Don't See Trump as a Legitimate President' - NBC News

Not sure if this is only after today's meeting with Comey.

Aren't you guys sick of this nonsense? Get.Over.It. He is legitimate because he WILL be the president. Making 287893797894783 threads about it in this forum will do nothing. Crying on social media will do nothing. Tattooing your old, will do nothing. Even if you do all of this for 4 years, you will accomplish nothing.

No Trump voter here but, well, he SIMPLY is President (or will be). In the end, all that matters is the inauguration. And that the American people support the end game.

JFK became President even though that election may well have been delivered by Daly. Johnson became President only after an assassination. Ford only because Nixon resigned (and Ford wasn't even elected as Vice President). Bush's election was disputed and came down to those infamous hanging chads (though subsequent full recounts showed that he probably would have taken Florida). It's the process and respect for the institution that should matter most in the end.

So, yeah, calling Trump a non-legitimate President is idiotic (deepening political divisions). Likewise, it's equally idiotic for Trump to keep pushing back against Russian interference in the election (alienating the intelligence community). I doubt that Russian interference was definitive but even if so - it does not matter at this point. There's no redo.

So true and nobody even cares what far left libs think unless you're another far left lib. Even their entertainment value is running it's course.

I don't see John Lewis a legitimate congressman supporting the values of America and he has the company of others in congress just like him. FH

So the obvious question is if all this is so uninteresting, why not just move along to your more fascinating pursuits?

To bad you keep this crap up and don't use the populist president elect. He obviously pays attention to the people, even if you think it's selfish, it still remains important to him. He wants to be the best president ever. So, let him know how to accomplish it. He's listening.

Instead of barking about his existence you should be taking full advantage of a president who reads his twitter feed. If enough people want it, he'll break his back to get it. He wants to be the best in your eyes, people should stop crying about losing and use it to their advantage. Gather petitions and let him know what it is you want the most.

It a rare occurrence. Most presidents play ball.

He will be the president, albeit a shifty one mired in controversy.

True and better than Trump will ever be. Won the popular vote and no hacking involved.
