It occurs to me that rather than simply criticize Trump for what he says, thereby adding nothing to the discourse and simply infuriating his followers, I should instead make clear the way a future leader should conduct himself.
What Trump should have said in his Twitter feed is: “I regret that John Lewis believes my presidency is illegitimate. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to working with him and his peers to make America great again.”
That is the proper response for the leader of the free world. Not an assault on the city that the man has represented for decades, and about which Trump himself spoke positively a mere 10 years ago.
