Georgia 5th district - WE DO NOT LIVE IN A SLUM - Link has lots of photos
While others on Twitter ripped into Trump for attacking the civil rights hero, Lewiss constituents in Georgia tweeted photos of the supposedly horrible and falling apart community, at the behest of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Are you a resident of John Lewis #fifthdistrict? Tweet us pictures of where you live, the paper tweeted.

Just check out these photos of beautiful people, beautiful houses, joyous sharing of music. Thousands of people, roaming all over an area of a couple of square miles all day long, without one incident of crime or conflict. Sad!
I'm already looking forward to this year's event, just nine months away!

(9,350 posts)According to Donald Trump all black people live in horrible ghettos that are hellholes where people get shot walking to the store. So, since John Lewis is black Donald Trump thinks Lewis' district is a crime ridden hellhole that is falling to pieces.
