CNN's Don Lemon and two guests on his show are facing backlash after they mocked President Trump's supporters and depicted them as uneducated.
Lemon was joined by New York Times columnist and CNN contributor Wajahat Ali and GOP strategist Rick Wilson during his show Saturday night to discuss the recent feud between Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and NPR. Following an interview last week, Pompeo yelled at NPR reporter Mary Louise Kelly and demanded she locate Ukraine, the topic of the initial disagreement, on an unlabeled map.
Wilson pivoted the conversation to attack Trump supporters, claiming they wouldn't be able to identify Ukraine.
"[Pompeo] also knows deep in his heart that Donald Trump couldn't find Ukraine on a map if you had the letter 'U' and a picture of an actual, physical crane next to it," he stated, eliciting a laugh from Lemon. "He knows that this is, you know, an administration defined by ignorance of the world. And so, that's partly him playing to their base and playing to their audience. You know, the credulous boomer rube demo that backs Donald Trump."
Wilson, who has written anti-Trump books, including Everything Trump Touches Dies and Running Against the Devil: A Plot to Save America From Trump — and Democrats From Themselves, then went on to use a heavy Southern accent to impersonate how he believes a Trump supporter speaks, stating, "'Donald Trump's the smart one — and y'all elitists are dumb!'"
"'You elitists with your geography and your maps — and your spelling!'" Ali chimed in, while his fellow guest added, "'Your math and your reading! All those lines on the map!'"
Lemon, who had to wipe his eyes after laughing so hard that he started to cry, said, "That was a good one. I needed that."

P.S. Pervy Don "Fingers" Lemon really ought not be making fun of anyone else. But he's a liberal, so I digress.

This laughing juxtaposed to their reaction on election night will truly be hilarious.
I will sometimes watch Don and Chris on CNN as well as the usual Fox folks. The difference in quality of presentation and analysis is stark between those two and the fox folks. It’s like shifting from the high school kids to the adults.
Mr. Lemon is correct. We Trump voters are uneducated and illiterate. I, for one, get all confused when someone does some fancy ciphering. But here are two numbers that I do understand.
Donald Trump: 304 electoral votes
Hillary Clinton: 227 electoral votes
“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win”
Mr. Lemon should argue for the repeal of the ill-conceived 17th Amendment to help fix what he believes to be the problem with Trump supporters.
Remember in November!
MAGA! Now KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)
Not very self-aware are they?

They knew the could get away with it, because they knew nobody was watching. #WeAreCNN
I do not remember all of the details of the following. Maybe someone else will
BUt 4chan claims they punked Wilson with the Russian Pee story and they did it because of something to do with his son or relative.
I wonder what the education level is in those neighborhoods where virtually (and sometimes literally) every single vote was against Trump.
Ordinarily, my response would be that this is the pot calling the kettle black.
But, Don Lemon-head might get triggered.
CNN is losing viewers faster than Jeff Zucker can scream “ bombshell “. That’s extremely fast .
This is what they think of ALL OF US..and mark my words, if they were to get power back, like Sanders campaign dude said, they will put us all in gulags, they said it and they mean it..go to a liberal cocktail party and watch how many of them spew the N word, they are also the biggest racists around
I thought Joe Scarborough was the dumbest man on television. But Trump was right: Don Lemon is the dumbest man on television.
Maybe Lemon has his job because he is a black gay who prefers white homosexuals?

CNN anchor Don Lemon stepped out on a Saturday night holding hands with his rumored boyfriend. The 51-year-old veteran journalist attended the star-studded Saturday Night Live after party at Tao Restaurant and Night Club in New York City with Tim Malone. It appears as though Lemon has been dating Malone since at least April, according to a number of photos posted to their respective social media accounts. But this is the first time Lemon has been photographed publicly with Malone, who works as a sales executive in his 30s and graduated from Boston College in 2006, according to his LinkedIn profile.
