CNN’s Don Lemon laments Trump-era ‘toxicity’ and trolls, says he may move on

The news – plus barbs from social media trolls and other critics -- may be too much for CNN’s Don Lemon to bear much longer.

The host of “CNN Tonight” told an audience in New York City on Thursday that the current “level of toxicity” in society – which he attributed to the Trump presidency – has him questioning whether he’ll still be on the air when the 2020 presidential election rolls around, according to reports.

“I don’t know if it’s worth this level of toxicity,” the 53-year-old Lemon said about continuing in his current position, the Daily Beast reported.

I remember Walter Cronkite always whining about the public’s toxicity and wanting to quit over it too.

Sounds like Mr. Lemon is turning sour over his lousy show’s lack of ratings.

Not to mention the ridicule that’s just squeezing the juice out of him.

“IF you could convert Don Lemon’s intellect to electricity... you couldn’t toast bread.”

On the other hand if bullshit was asphalt Lemon would be Route 80 Coast to Coast.

Don Lemon: You lie! Of course that’s why you work at the Commie News Network because you were born to lie. It’s all you know and all you will be good at.

Where else can you lie for a living and get paid what you do.

“Toxicity” is now a code word for the truth. The Left has to redefine everything until no one can understand what anyone is saying anymore. We might as well just bark like dogs instead of talk.

I don’t go on social media anymore, it’s so toxic,” he added.

Lemon went on to blame the Trump era, and even the president himself.

Law of causality:

First, identify what are you doing that is causing people to "be toxic" to you?

Then stop doing it.

Evaluation:

Then evaluate if your actions are working.

If not, try something else.

lemon is an idiot racist loser. No one (except other lunatics) watches him or listens to his daily spew. He finally is coming to the grips with the fact that his life is worthless...and the fact that he is a pathetic LIB lunatic. I laugh at his reality.

Once again, the media CREATES the hysteria and then blames the ‘Trump Presidency’ for it. This has all been about creating so much chaos that nothing can be done, that his agenda is stopped or dramatically slowed, and they have succeeded. Blaming President Trump for their mania, their hysteria, for “tiring the country out”. Wouldn’t we all just be happier and less stressed out if He would just leave, they ask.

Great comment, Telepathic!  Dawn LeMon is merely the logical result of the Watergate journalistic hoax perpetrated so many decades ago.  I wonder what effect Trump is having on the journalist profession.  Methinks Trump is killing the "coolness" factor of getting a journalist degree.

At Thanksgiving dinner, you have to hide the fact that you're getting a journalism degree.  Am I right?
