Sen Feinstein: ‘I
Understand Why John Lewis Feels the Way He Does’
by Pam Key 15 Jan 2017
Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” commenting on Rep. John Lewis
(D-GA) saying “I don’t see the president-elect as a legitimate
president,” Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)
said she understood why Lewis “feels the way he does.”
Feinstein said, “Well, I understand why John Lewis feels
the way he does. This is a very fearful and divided nation right now, and the
Trumps have not done anything to bring it together. I really regret the
president-elect’s response to what John Lewis said. It’s without understanding
of his history, of what he went through, of the fact that this is Martin Luther
King weekend and there is so much fear in this country. I come from the biggest
state. I get tens of thousands of phone calls and emails of people that are
fearful of what’s going to happen. It’s the job of this new president to
reassure people
that he is not just the president of his base, but he is the president of
everyone, and that means a coming together now ”
