This creep should NEVER win an election again.
John Lewis Boycotted George W. Bush’s Inauguration, Too
www.nationalreview.com/corner/443896/john-lewis-boycotted-george-w-bush-inauguration
I saw the interview with Chuck Todd, thought Lewis was being petty by boycotting the Trump inauguration, and then today heard that he did the same thing in 2001 for the last Republican president.
"The Washington Post reported at the time that Lewis "thought it would be hypocritical to attend Bush's swearing-in because he doesn't believe Bush is the true elected president."
Sound familiar? What a petulant child. John, you only go when it fits your insane ideology? Tell the truth. You're not going because your criminal candidate lost.
Glad you made it over the bridge in Selma John......but you didn't learn a thing. You are exactly what is wrong with America.
Shame on Georgia voting for you.

"But this is also part of a pattern. Lewis and Lee, along with some other Democratic lawmakers at the time, also boycotted to make a point when President George W. Bush was inaugurated in 2001. The Washington Post reported at the time that Lewis "thought it would be hypocritical to attend Bush's swearing-in because he doesn't believe Bush is the true elected president."
Maybe they had a better excuse that time, as there was so much lingering acrimony surrounding the Florida recount. But we're talking about elected members of Congress who have refused to accept two Republican presidencies in a row. Is there always a good enough excuse whenever a Republican wins? At what point is it fair to ask whether some people are just not committed to democratic or legal processes at all unless the results come out as they hope?"
