Don Lemon Slams Kanye’s Oval Office ‘Minstrel Show,’ Says Rapper’s Mom ‘Rolling Over in Her Grave’

Then, Lemon then took issue with those who sent cameras to the event.

“This has nothing to do with being liberal or a conservative,” he said. “This has to do with honesty. And we have to stop pretending, sitting here on these CNN panels or whatever network panels, and pretending like this is normal and let’s have this conversation about Kanye West. Who cares? Why are you sending cameras to the Oval Office for Kanye West?”

Near the end of his remarks, Lemon said the artist changed after the death of his mother, remarking his mom would have been disturbed by his behavior and “is rolling over in her grave.”

In a final suggestion to West, Lemon said, “Kanye, back away from the cameras, go get some help.”

Do not remember the hate for Kanye from them when he accused Bush of hurting black people in Katrina? One of them is off their reservation and it is upsetting them greatly.

I don’t trust Kanye.
He’ll say one thing today and perhaps another thing tomorrow.

If I were ever to be talking to the President in the Oval Office my long departed Mom would be saying..."Damn,I must have done something right!"

It's Monica Lewinsky's Mom who weeps uncontrollably when she hears the words "Oval Office".

“Kanye, back away from the cameras, go get some help.” said Lemon, whilst basking in the glow of the studio lights and staring at the little, red, dot on the camera.

Lemon better watch it, Kanye will come over and wipe up the floor with his snowflake-self.

I hope he's invested wisely because it seems likely to me that album sales and concert tours might be few and far between from now on.

Why would his mom rollover in her grave about raising a son brave enough to stand up to the mob?

Could Don Lemon be a rapist who doesn’t like black and white people associating?

Ku Klux Klan

The Ku Klux Klan, founded and populated by Democratics after post-Civil War Reconstruction, was reenergized after the 1915 release of D.W. Griffith’s very popular racist & Pro-Klan motion picture The Birth of a Nation. The picture was a particular favorite of Democratic President Woodrow Wilson. As recounted by William Keylor, Professor of History & International Relations at Boston University:

While the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People publicly denounced the movie’s blatant appeals to racial prejudice, the president organized a private screening of his friend’s film in the White House for the members of his cabinet and their families. “It is like writing history with lightning,” Wilson observed, “and my only regret is that it is all so terribly true.”

After World War I, the popularity of the Klan surged, and it became a political power in many regions of the United States, particularly in the South. It was also popular in the border states, the Mountain States, and the West. Its local political strength gave it a major role in the 1924 Democratic Party National Convention (DNC). However, its participation was unwelcome by many DNC delegates, such as Catholics from the major cities of the Northeast and Midwest. The tension between pro- and anti-Klan delegates produced an intense and sometimes violent showdown between convention attendees from the states of Colorado and Missouri. Klan delegates opposed the nomination of New York Governor Al Smith because Smith was a Roman Catholic. Smith campaigned against William Gibbs McAdoo, who had the support of most Klan delegates.
Ku Klux Klan Platform Plank

The second dispute of the convention revolved around an attempt by non-Klan delegates, led by Forney Johnston of Alabama, to condemn the organization for its violence in the Democratic Party’s platform. Klan delegates defeated the platform plank in a series of floor debates. To celebrate, tens of thousands of hooded Klansmen rallied in a field in New Jersey, across the river from New York City. This event, known subsequently as the “Klanbake”, was also attended by hundreds of Klan delegates to the convention, who burned crosses, urged violence and intimidation against African Americans and Catholics, and attacked effigies of Smith.

The final vote was 546.15 for the Klan, 542.85 against it.
