What A Shock! John Lewis Lied About This Being the First Inauguration He Will Miss [VIDEO]

January 17, 2017 by Kristie McDonald

It’s no big surprise but Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) told NBC last weekend he will skip the Trump Inauguration.

“I don’t plan to attend inauguration. It will be the first one I miss since.”

Well, they say that history repeats itself and so it was in this case.  John Lewis lied.

John Lewis did not attend George W. Bush’s Inauguration in 2001 saying he was not a “true elected president.”

Donald Trump responded with tweets,

John Lewis said about my inauguration, “It will be the first one that I’ve missed.” WRONG (or lie)! He boycotted Bush 43 also because he…

@TrishIntel @pds0399 @trish_regan John Lewis use’s Republican POTUS elections as huge fund raiser. Just as he used MLK for a job creator.

@Ps5725 @pds0399 @TrishIntel @trish_regan Absolutely. He is a hypocrite royal. Got his seat by using MLK, money off MLK. Wake up Atlanta.

But now John Lewis’s staff have come up with not an apology but an excuse.  He didn’t lie, he merely forgot!

John Lewis's staff says he forgot that he boycotted George W. Bush's inauguration: "That was almost 20 years ago." https://t.co/Jpnpq1QYyI
