Civil rights legend Rep. John Lewis’ decision to question President-elect Trump’s legitimacy is “incredibly disappointing and irresponsible,” incoming White House Chief of Staff Reince Reince Priebus said Sunday.

Priebus said on ABC that Lewis’ comments in a “Meet The Press” interview went against the Georgia Democrat’s life’s work of fighting for voting rights for people. He said Lewis is calling into question the legitimacy of millions of voters’ choice.
