Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY), a member of the Trump transition team, on Monday accused Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) of acting like a spoiled child after the civil rights icon suggested that Russias interference in the U.S. election undermined the legitimacy of Donald Trumps presidency.
During a Martin Luther King Jr. Day discussion on Fox Business, network contributor Dagen McDowell took issue with Trumps Twitter tirade which accused Lewis of not taking enough action to help his constituents.
Thats is who Donald Trump is, she acknowledged. But at some point, at times, I do wish he wouldnt punch down.
My opinion is, what John Lewis is doing, hes pouting, Collins opined. He lost. Its like a spoiled child and weve seen it with the others. They cant get over the fact that they lost. And what do spoiled little kids do. You know, they run around and throw a tantrum.

Maturity is something totally foreign to them.
But spoiled punk behavior is quite familiar.

Not a trace of discipline, or character anywhre on this pathetic, deteriorated face.
He looks as if he has always been in the midst of nasty little screeching tantrums.
