CNN anchor Don Lemon lectures Trump supporters: The truth 'doesn’t matter’ to them
Fox News ^ | Dec. 11, 2018 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

CNN anchor Don Lemon sounded off on what he called President Donald Trump’s “lies,” and claimed the commander-in-chief's supporters only call out fact-fudging when it comes from Democrats.

After his colleague Chris Cuomo closed his show by questioning the president’s evolving narrative about his business ties to Russia, Lemon said that Trump “lied about the lies that he lied about.”

“To me, I think it has been sort of been accepted that this president lies and normalized in a way and that is bothersome no matter who is president, but that’s just bothersome to me and what it does to the fabric of our society,” Lemon told Cuomo during their primetime hand-off.

Cuomo agreed with the sentiment, saying that lying is “the basis of all criminal prosecution and political upheaval.”

After eight years of covering up Obama’s crimes and incompetence, how can they not know why we’re so angry?

Is there one single, concrete, honest to goodness provable lie he has told?

Talk down to us and tell us that they are the ones who know the truth and we are just stupid morons. Boy that will get them a lot of sympathy.

Well, Don, if you’re sad about it, why not have a drink with Kathy Griffin.

Wow! the man has no shame. What he means to say is, we can’t lie enough to get you to change your allegiance. We have tried every story we can think of, true or totally made up. We have brought you all sorts of serious looking people to tell you that you are stupid and we know best. But you still persist in thinking that you know best. That we are fake, fraudulent, propagandists. You have refused to buy the candidates that we put in front of you. And now we are frustrated. Look what you have done.

This is leftard projection. The truth doesn't matter to leftards because they agree with the postmodern/subjectivist view that reality is a construct of consciousness and so objective truth does not exist.

They know, they just want to tell us it’s not justified.

Who is he to lecture anyone. News anchors think they something special. In reality they are just a pretty face or a notable voice, neither is a gage of intelligence or common sense. I doubt if many Americans know who this guy is.

This guys thinks white men are the most dangerous people on earth and he is calling other people liars. He a Hilliary supporter & he is concerned about truth in politics. This guy is beyond a liar he is psychotic & delusional. The last thing this country needs is the truth anyway. If truth were ever introduced into American life it would destroy this country.

To a Leftist, ANYTHING which contradicts, invalidates, or demonstrates the falsity of the Leftist Narrative MUST be a lie, which MUST be ruthlessly suppressed.

They can never permit anyone to even momentarily question the Leftist Narrative. Remember the story of “The Emperor’s New Clothes”.

Oh, it does! That's why I never bother to watch CNN.

Propaganda is sooooooooooooooo boring.

I guess this hate monger doesn’t remember when Bill Clinton’s sexual molestation of an intern was in the news, the Democrat females openly declared that they wished they could have been used by him. That was truly gross. It was MUCH worse than conservatives continuing their support of President Trump because he is standing for their political views on illegal immigration, taxes, regulation, and support of the police and the military
