Rep John Lewis doesn’t just think Trump supporters are “ignorant of history and uncaring”, he also claims to be privy to their extra-curricular activities.
His remarks at the Congressional Black Caucus Town Hall on Civil Rights were beyond inflammatory and racist. But, of even further interest is his (presumably) unwitting suggestion that the civil rights movement in the 60s were not all they appeared to be on the surface.
Lewis always brings up the past in his speeches. That is his claim to fame – he marched with MLK.
However, if his remarks on the next page are to be taken at face-value and analyzed through the lens of logic, not liberalism – Lewis may have very well destroyed the entire basis for his career.

Ok, look at it this way; when it comes to Christianity, we take the sacrament (communion to other christians), we do so in respect to the Lord as both a promise and forgiveness of our transgressions. The same can be said for the National Anthem and rendering honor to the flag. When we say the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, we pledge our loyalty as well as our commitment to be a good upstanding citizen. We do not sit down to make that pledge, we stand up and cover our heart as a sign of respect and loyalty. When you are kneeling during the anthem, you are now showing disrespect and disavowing your citizenship of a United States citizen. After doing so, you no longer have the right to protest in any way or form. Let it be known, when you stand up and render respect, you are showing your commitment and pledging your loyalty as a US citizen, and have the rights and responsibilities that comes with it.
Antifa is the only ones I see covering up
Says a supporter of Robert Byrd. KKK member.
No. It was fools like you that made them put their hoods on. You thought were going to take over. Not happening.
Liar
Old racist goat!
These people say the dumbest things how can anyone take them serious? HAHAHA
Another whiny brat that has become rich off the taxpayers.
Those people in the hoods and sheets are Democrats, you fookin’ moron!
John Lewis is crazy! Trump has nothing to do with the KKK or any other such group! If he did we would’ve known years ago!
