    WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic Rep. John Lewis says he’s doesn’t consider Donald Trump a “legitimate president,” blaming the Russians for helping the Republican win the White House.

    The Georgia congressman and leader in the civil rights movement of the 1960s said he will skip next week’s inauguration of Trump at the Capitol, joining several other Democrats who have decided to boycott the historic event.

    “You know, I believe in forgiveness. I believe in trying to work with people. It will be hard. It’s going to be very difficult. I don’t see this president-elect as a legitimate president,” Lewis said in an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” that will air on Sunday.
    And how does that ridiculous, politically motivated and hyperbolic statement make the US not a “true democracy” as you put it DMC?

    I read this as you are just as hyperbolic and politically motivated as John Lewis.

    Great job you ing clown.

    How could it have a true democracy if Putin can put a person into the Oval Office?
    Putin didn’t put a person in the Oval Office. The American people did via the EC.

    If we don't have a true democracy, how can democracy be overturned?
    not sure what you mean by true democracy. do you mean a direct democracy where everybody votes on everything? a republic of democratically elected officials is still democratic. if an election is held, and the losers are seeking to invalidate or overturn those results, then i would consider than an attack on the democratic system

    Why do you accept the EC results when your candidate wins but cry foul when your candidate loses? Go ahead again and claim "not me" as you step in again to be the legal counsel.
    i have always accepted the EC results as valid because that's the rule of law. i didnt call trump an illegitimate president just because he won the EC while losing the popular vote. i just think the system is stupid and we should try to improve it.

    Biden won the same way. Both won fair and square.

    Putin never put a person in the Oval Office.

    But, this kind of talk made half the country go insane.

    Half the country is a bit of a stretch, but ok, what’s the solution to making the country accept reality and not “go insane”?

    There's no nightly news about whether Biden might be a a Russian puppet. Its refreshing.

    See. You’re part of the problem. You don’t acknowledge the fact that half the country doesn’t believe Biden was legitimately elected. Do you believe Biden was legitimately elected?

    iT's a RePrEsEnTaTivE rEpUbLiC, we know

    There were 59 evidence-free election challenges. Trump then lobbied governors, election officials and state legislatures to overturn the popular vote. He also coaxed and tended the putsch on Jan. 6th.

    State legislatures are now stripping power from election officials who didn't play ball with Trump or who are Democrats, passing laws designed to suppress voting in dozens of states while telling credulous GOP voters that the election was stolen from them; racial and partisan gerrymanders will happen later this year.

    Leaving out the last (which the GOP pursues scientifically and has completely normalized) is the rest of this within the norms of our representative republic, in your opinion?

    Why are you being coy? Do you think DJT won the election?

    Darrin has always been allergic to simple questions about his point of view. I like to call this pattern "the cowardice of his convictions."
