John Lewis is not the good guy in this

Only he and the Almighty know whether he really swallows his own hooey about how "the Russians participated in getting this man elected, and they helped destroy the candidacy of Hillary Clinton," and how that is going to preclude his attendance at the inauguration.

To reiterate two basic facts, yes, the Russians did engage in attempts to affect this election, but that is because they were certain, like most American prognosticators, that Hillary would win, and they wanted to deal with a hobbled president, and it's a bit rich for Dems to quite suddenly ascribe adversary status to Russia.

Lewis has long since blighted whatever was noble about his civil-rights-movement leadership in the 1960s with his grandstanding and outright lying, most notably his claim that he was subjected to racial taunts outside the Capitol building.

Yes, once again Trump has taken the bait and has lit into Lewis on Twitter. That's what childish people do.

And now we have the Freedom-Hater party using Squirrel-Hair's tweets in a fundraising email.

It's going to be a long four years.
