Don Lemon Returns To CNN And Jots Down Some Notes For Donald Trump
HuffPost
The fired CNN host came back to the “mothership” for a conversation with Erin Burnett.
Don Lemon returned to CNN Monday to remind Donald Trump of his incendiary words after Trump blamed Democratic rhetoric for an apparent assassination attempt on him at his golf course. (Watch the video below.)
The former CNN host jotted down notes while Erin Burnett’s “OutFront” was on the subject. He compiled a list of the former president’s hateful comments and threats after the Republican nominee said Democrats calling him a “threat to Democracy” is “what is causing me to be shot at.”
“For Donald Trump and his folks to say ― and JD Vance to say ― that it’s Democrats who are causing this… that’s an issue,” Lemon told Burnett. “I wrote down some notes when I saw it. Do you mind if I read this?”
Burnett gave him the floor and off Lemon went in a rare homecoming (he called it “going back to the mothership”) to the network that fired him in April 2023:
So, he’s called everyone who works in this building, “the enemy of the people,” right? We had pipe bombs sent because he kept calling us “the enemy of the people,” and that CNN was fake news.Crooked Joe. Crooked Hillary. Crooked Kamala. Comrade Kamala. Deranged Jack Smith. Birdbrain Nikki Haley. Bloodbath if he’s not elected. There won’t be another election if he’s not elected. Bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. Poisoning the blood of our country. Destroying the blood of our country, which is something that was Hitler-esque. Communists. Marxists. Fascists. Left-leaning that live like vermin. Sons of bitches to NBA (actually NFL) players. Shithole countries. Haiti was one and now he’s blaming Haitian immigrants for things. Blood coming out of her wherever as he talked about Megyn Kelly.And so if Donald Trump wants people, wants Kamala Harris and others to stop saying that he is a threat to democracy, then he should stop threatening democracy. Perhaps he shouldn’t be trying to overturn elections, overthrow the government, and inciting insurrections.
