Lewis dumped the bait (wrongly) and got the reaction he knew would happen. - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Jan 14, 10:36 7
- Agreed 100%. -- nm - ML Galaxy Jan 14, 11:42
- Note that this isn't just "I don't like him", but is based off what he saw in the meeting with Comey. -- nm - Reagen Jan 14, 10:47 5
  - Some things matter more than what was seen. Comey is the guy who failed. - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Jan 14, 10:54 3
    - Undermining the process needlessly is dangerous. Pretending it worked properly when it didn't is probably more dangerous. -- nm - Reagen Jan 14, 10:58 2
      - Right. We are if anything underreacting to coup detat. -- nm - David's iPad Jan 14, 11:26
      - I am not saying ignore it. A full accounting needs to happen. - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Jan 14, 11:00
  - Like that matters. -- nm - znufrii Jan 14, 10:49
I think Lewis choose to pick the fight with his comments. -- nm - iSpam Jan 14, 08:01 11
- He did. I like Lewis quite a bit. But he knew exactly what he was doing and how this would play -- nm - Remlik Jan 14, 08:08 6
  - It was so easy for Trump to just ignore it. Obviously, not so much... -- nm - Guigue Jan 14, 08:09 5
    - Or even say something like "I look forward to working with him." -- nm - Mara Jan 14, 09:41 4
      - he's utterly incapcable of taking the high road. -- nm - Remlik Jan 14, 09:51 3
        
        And this is the country we live in, a country that elected this man. And the thing is, it's not just the country we live in *now*. It was this - THIS - -- (edited) - Mara Jan 14, 10:53 1
        
        true. -- nm - Remlik Jan 14, 10:55
        
        So very this - amoxy Jan 14, 10:03
- Fair enough, but to say that Lewis is 'All talk' is straight insane. -- nm - Volnelk Jan 14, 08:03 3
  - Trump is an idiot but it's a fight that John Lewis cannot win. No one changed sides on this. - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Jan 14, 10:38 1
    - It raises Lewis in the national spotlight, makes him more of a leader -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 14, 10:56
  - So, par for the course. -- nm - znufrii Jan 14, 08:16
