Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed lashed out Saturday afternoon after President-elect Donald Trump attacked both Rep. John Lewis and his Congressional district in pair of tweets in retaliation for Lewis' questioning the legitimacy of his election.
Through a series of three tweets of his own, Reed called Lewis, a civil rights-era icon who has held office since 1987 a "hero and a national treasure."
