In 1965 when Rep John Lewis was just about killed while crossing the Pettis bridge fighting for voting rights, Trump was in NYC applying for another deferment because of bone spurs in his foot.

Trump tweeted something like Lewis' district was crime-ridden, while just the opposite is true. Lewis represents the Buckhead section of Atlanta, one of the most exclusive sections with very up-scale shopping.

Could this be interpreted as a racist remark by the president-elect? Lewis is black, Atlanta is a predominately black city, so therefore there must be tons of crime.
