But this isn’t the first time Lewis has boycotted a presidential inauguration. According to a Washington Post article written on January 21, 2001, Lewis and other members of the Black Caucus boycotted George W. Bush’s inauguration because they didn’t “believe Bush is the true elected president.” Lewis spent the day in his Atlanta district.


Piss on these racist asswipes.

All the Republicans did this in 1960 when Kennedy was elected.

It's on National Review and I cannot get it to link.

Here, it is one of the first links on the Google search.

Was about to say that this has gone on for years but social media channels and polarization has created this garbage we see today.

Yes, the Democrats went before the SCOTUS with the sole argument of, "we're too stupid to read, comprehend, and correctly mark an election ballot."

I believe them.

But he said in his NBC interview "this will be the first inauguration I've missed!"

We was the worst president in history, so just guess that doesn't bode well for Trump.

Hopefully we've grown up a little in the past 57 years. Democrats are still doing it.

I love how in his interview he says this is the first time he's ever not attended the inauguration.

John Lewis is an icon.

We should just amend the Constitution to let him pick our President.

He is apparently infallible.

That's "horrifying." That is twice now that Lewis has directly threatened our democracy.

Sure I remember.

Al Gore tried to hijack the Florida vote and failed.
