Just when you think CNN couldn’t be any clearer in their clear hatred for anything Trump-related that could be construed as positive or in support of the president.
Resident SJW host Don Lemon flat-out said that rapper Kanye West “is not very bright” because of the hip-hop mogul’s continued support for Trump. Lemon made the comments after playing a clip of West doing an interview where he stated that Trump “cares about the way black people feel about him."
“If you listen to the entire interview that's what it sounds like," Lemon said. "It's like a word salad where you realize that Kanye West, entitled to his own opinion, but is not very bright and not very — he — when — I'm talking about this issue, not overall, but when it comes to these issues, he's not clued in. He needs to read about it before he speaks about it.”
Here’s the segment with Lemon’s comments about West:
It’s pretty comical, especially coming from Lemon, that he said that West “needs to read about it before he speaks about it.” CNN speaks about topics all the time without having a clue on what they’re talking about. Even though they might “read about it” or look into a topic, their opinions are very misinformed.
The only reason Lemon gets away with calling a black man “not very bright” is because he’s a black, gay man. If I came out and called any black man “not very bright,” regardless of how intelligent the guy actually is, I would be vilified and burned at the stake.
As you saw in the video above, Lemon backpedaled almost immediately after realizing what he said didn’t sound very “tolerant.”
“I'm not saying he's not a bright person,” Lemon backtracked. “I take that back. It's not what I meant. When it comes to this particular issue he needs to, like, look at a book, read some history and understand what he's talking about.”
I wonder which history Mr. Lemon is talking about? Maybe it’s the revisionist history that CNN often likes to peddle.
Keep talking, Don. You make my job much easier.
