Tuesday on CNN, host Don Lemon said President Barack Obama should be added to the Mount Rushmore sculptures of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt.
While discussing a California couple charged for painting over a Black Lives Matter mural, Lemon said, You see the right-wing machine kick in, media kick in and see Trumps poll numbers go south. They kick in with Democratic cities are in chaos right now. Is this what you want from Joe Biden? And they are taking your country away sand they are going to take down statues. Crime is rising. Its so bad. Oh my, defund police. And the people who you saw there for the most part not specifically, as a whole, fall for it. They fall for it. Thats why they do things like that. They want to paint over signs and think its our country. This is the country that we built. Even though a rich diversity of people helped build the country, and many of us, meaning ancestors, for free did not get paid for it, could not get an education, could not build wealth, are not on statues, Confederate or otherwise, are not on Mount Rushmore. I think, listen if they are going to put someone on Mount Rushmore, considering the history of the country, the first black president should be front and center.
Anchor Chris Cuomo said, Add to Mount Rushmore. I think thats first of all, its a more salable idea than the idea of taking away Founding Fathers.
Lemon said, So whats wrong with all of us together thinking or reshaping our country so that more people rethink our country in the way we think and where priorities are so the country it belongs to everyone.

On sacred Indian land? How polarizing and divisive of the Lemonhead.
So he is saying Obama should be a token President ???
Wouldn’t that take a lot of onyx?
Left: “Rushmore is white privilege, we stole it from the indians, and desecrated their sacred land.
Also Left: “But it would all be better if we just threw an image of a half-white president up there. Screw the indians.”
I guess the idea of putting Obama on Mt. Rushmore is so they could highlight the best along with the worst of our presidents.
Who among us did not see this coming? I’m amazed it took this long.
Hey I know just put Barry’s name atop all the rubble at the bottom of the monument it’ll be in perfect harmony with his administrations damage to America.
There is a geological problem with adding Obama or any other person’s head to Mount Rushmore. There is no rock face remaining that will support/permit the carving of a new face.
The ears wouldnt fix.
Barf and then once the communist Obama is up, then Lemon will call for the removal of the other 4 U.S. Presidents.
They would need the entire Rockies chain to do those ears justice!
Sharpton. The Rushmore head will be life size.
He won a Nobel Prize.
LOL!
