PRIEBUS: .......But that issue (Trump beating the birther nonsense) has been resolved for years now, and it's been resolved for at least two years in Donald Trump's mind. And to bring that up as justification for John Lewis questioning the legitimacy of a democratic activity that is -- has been around since the beginning of our country is wrong.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Just a factual point, he didn't stop raising those questions -- he didn't stop raising those questions until late in this campaign, not two years.
PRIEBUS: But look, George, that's not the point. The point is not where Barack Obama was born, the point is is that we've got congressmen on the Democratic side of the aisle that are questioning the legitimacy of President-elect Trump who won in an electoral landslide. That's the issue. That's where the outrage should be, not old news, but the fact that we are preparing for the transfer of power. and we have been working with President Obama, hand in glove, and I think that they -- including the president -- should step up and get his people in line and tell them to grow up and accept the fact that
they lost the election.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Let's move on to the issue of Russia.
Here is what he should have said:
"No, you're missing the point you dense jackass. Your candidate spent five years implying Obama was an illegitimate president and had to be forced to admit it was not true instead of being forced to admit he had lied his ass off about it because he did. He gave that admission all of 20 seconds. So the real outrage you lying sack of shit is that this same putz who was elected under deeply suspicious circumstances, and who won by the narrowest of electoral margins while getting drubbed in the popular vote now wants us to blindly accept his legitimacy. Fuck that noise, Riense."
