By The First 54 mins ago Donald Trump weighed-in Monday on the termination of Don Lemon over at CNN, saying “the dumbest man on television has been fired.”
“Good News: ‘The dumbest man on television,’ Don Lemon, has finally been fired from Fake News CNN. My only question is, WHAT TOOK THEM SO LONG?” posted Trump on Truth Social.
CNN announced on Monday that they were ending their contract with Don Lemon after a 17 year run at the network. This news came after Lemon had a short, yet controversial tenure as a morning show co-host.
CNN stated that Lemon would always be a part of the CNN family and thanked him for his contributions over the years. According to CNN’s statement, Lemon’s morning show, which he co-hosted with Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins, would continue. The show, called “CNN This Morning,” had been on the air for almost six months and the network expressed their commitment to its success.
Lemon released a statement on Twitter, making it clear that his departure was not a mutual decision:
I was informed this morning by my agent that I have been terminated by CNN. I am stunned. After 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly. At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play. With that said, I want to thank my colleagues and the many teams I have worked with for an incredible run. They are the most talented journalists in the business, and I wish them all the best.
Just a random aside, but has social media become the souped up form of graffiti for the age?
Trump being Trump.
Social Media is electronic graffiti.....................
seems to me that the competition for that slot would be rather fierce. Sort of like 'the dumbest member of the U.S. Senate.'
Goodbye and good riddance to sour Donny Lemon!
It’s scary to say this, but he was one of the good ones.
I always enjoy what Trump says.

My question is, why was that ignorant racist homopredator hired in the first place?
You answered you own question...............
I think Tucker got Don “in a family way” and they were both ousted to save the networks’ reputation.
Sean Hannity takes exception to Lemone being placed lower than him
Now if they could fire the ladies on the view they would begin to get rid of the dumbest women...
LeMon is not the dumbest man on cable news Rachel Maddow is
Or Mika
I wish they would get rid of the 2 stupidest people in Washington: Biden and Harris.
Grandpa has an opinion on everything,
Sounds right to me.
Whoopie is sans contract on The View.
Maybe she will land on CNN or FoxNews.
