Asked About John Lewis’ Legacy, Trump Gripes He Didn’t ‘Come To My Inauguration’

After a week of tributes and mourning for Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), President Donald Trump declined to offer any praise for the late civil rights icon and instead bemoaned the fact that he “didn’t come to my inauguration.”

In an interview with Axios that aired Monday, Trump was asked how he thinks history will remember Lewis. 

“I don’t know,” Trump said. “I don’t know John Lewis. He chose not to come to my inauguration. I never met John Lewis, actually, I don’t believe.”
