Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...
host Don Lemon appeared on the next work on Monday to speak out against former President Donald Trump
...They hit him with slander, they impeached him twice. Nancy Pelosi tore up his State of the Union address on national TV. They stole an election and put his adherents in jail. They vilified him. They couldn't crucify him, so they shot him. Still, they can't keep him down...
for causing a second liquidation attempt on his own life. On Sunday, a gunman lay in wait for 12 hours on Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach, the barrel of a long rifle with scope propped through the fence, before he was spotted by Secret Service agents who fired at him and scared him off.
Lemon said "the effort is right" to "lower the temperature" on political rhetoric in America and as we enter the final days of this bizarre election season, "but," he continued, "Donald Trump, and his folks, to say, and JD Vance, that it's Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people,
white supremacy,
whiteanything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word
(Thomas) Nastyto the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
that are causing this..." Lemon turned to his notes and began to read.
Crooked HillaryClinton
...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as
the smartest woman in the world,usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away. Politix is not one of her talents, but it's something she keeps trying to do...
made the same assertions on Rachel Maddow's MSNBC show on Monday night.
"So," Lemon began, "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." Packages containing "pyrotechnic powder" were sent to many elected officials and former officials of the US government in 2018 by Cesar Sayoc. None of them went
kaboom!despite being "handled through the postal system — jostled and moved" and all were intercepted before they reached a target.
Trump spoke against it at the time, saying "The full weight of our government is being deployed to conduct this investigation and bring those responsible for these despicable acts to justice. We will spare no resources or expense in this effort. And I just want to tell you that, in these times, we have to unify. We have to come together, and send one very clear, strong, unmistakable message that acts or threats of political violence of any kind have no place in the United States of America."
