Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) on Sunday praised Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) for his role in the Civil Rights Movement, but said he disagrees with Lewis's view that President-elect Donald Trump is not a "legitimate president."

"I have tremendous admiration for Congressman Lewis, not only for what he's done but what he stands for," said Rubio, as reported by the Tampa Bay Times.

"I don't agree with him that President-elect Trump is illegitimate. I also don't agree with his decision not to attend the inaugural, though it certainly is his right. It's not about President-elect Trump - it's a peaceful transfer of power."

I agree Trump could have handled the situation much better but good riddance to Lewis. Glad he isn't going.

Posting for liddle Marcos campaign again I see.

No one cares what Rubio thinks anymore. He will be laughed at if he tries to run for POTUS again. He is a good little cuck senator.

That is one goofy looking SOB. Can we just get one normal looking guy to run for office? Enough with the high heels already.

Lewis is a partisan POS that did the same thing to W. He also started this and needs to grow a set.

Rubio continued...
quote:


"That said, I also hoped the president-elect would have responded differently given everything that John Lewis means to our country. But people make their own decisions and that’s were we stand, but that’s how I feel about it.”

" It's not about President-elect Trump - it's a peaceful transfer of power."


Trump tweet calling Lil' Marco out on this erroneous statement later?
