Quite honestly, I don’t know why the media/leftists haven’t petitioned the Vatican to beatify MLK yet. I bet it’s coming.

No, he is a lying partisan political hack.

Newspapers continue to cite the boycott as an unprecedented act. For example, the Sacramento Bee claimed that the boycott was “breaking with generations of past precedent.” And Business Insider erroneously reported that the 2017 inauguration will be “the first time he [Lewis] will miss an inauguration since 1986,” the year he was elected to Congress.

But this isn’t the first time Lewis has boycotted a presidential inauguration. According to a Washington Post article written on January 21, 2001, Lewis and other members of the Black Caucus boycotted George W. Bush’s inauguration because they didn’t “believe Bush is the true elected president.” Lewis spent the day in his Atlanta district.

John Lewis Boycotted George W. Bush’s Inauguration, Too

If Lewis actually was a saint, his supporters would need to flip their sh** when someone called him out.

John Lewis said nasty things about John McCain, outright lied about Tea Party members yelling racist epithets at him, and refused to attend both Bush and Trump's inaugurations over B.S. claims that they're not "legitimate".

John Lewis has a history.
Lewis didn’t attend W inauguration in 2001. Also, said W was illegitimate.
Nothing new.

Nah - saints have a peaceful look about them. He has a mean and nasty look. Reminds me of the Creature From the Black Lagoon.
