John Lewis/Donald Trump/Selma Alabama

[Cyrano]

Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), said he would not invite President-elect Donald Trump to visit Selma, Alabama, with him, though he also would not "do anything to prevent him from coming."

On Bloody Sunday in 1965, Lewis was badly beaten by Alabama state troopers on Selma's Edmund Pettus Bridge during a march for voting rights.

Politicians and leaders from both parties - including Vice President-elect Mike Pence - have visited Selma with Lewis over the years. In 2015, Presidents Obama and Bush, went to Selma with Lewis and others to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday.

"By going to Selma," Lewis said of Trump, "maybe he would learn something." But, he added, "I would not invite him to come."

John Lewis is a legend who is admired by countless millions in America and elsewhere. Donald Trump is a con man who is feared by countless millions in America and elsewhere.

Does John Lewis really think that "maybe he (Trump) would learn something" by going to this year's anniversary of "Bloody Sunday?"

I don't think so.

4. the creature

is incapable of learning anything..good for you John Lewis,I think that your years of sacrifice, pain and dedication have taught you what not to waste your time on...John Lewis is an example of the capacity for forgiveness ,but it can't be given if the other does not have a conscience

5. does anyone think

that tRump is willing to learn anything he is for HIMSELF AND ONLY FOR HIMSELF. He really couldn't care less. He is always looking to settling scores with those he proclaims are his enemies. Despicable man.

7. if he (asshole) wanted to learn anything it would be how

to swing a baton. That is my guess anyway.

Or maybe he'd like to pretend he is sheriff.
