Don Lemon: Trump ‘Is Clearly Trying to Ignite a Civil War in This Country,’May Have Dementia'
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | 08/23/17 | David Rutz

Posted on 08/23/2017 5:40:02 AM PDT by Enlightened1

CNN host Don Lemon said President Donald Trump is "clearly trying to ignite a civil war in this country" after his speech to supporters in Phoenix, Arizona, on Tuesday night, also pondering whether the president had dementia.

"He has given oxygen to racists," Lemon said. "He hasn't really said anything [to] denounce the alt-right … He is clearly trying to ignite a civil war in this country. He has not tamped down race."

In what CNN described in its chyron as an "angry, divisive speech," Trump lit into the media and also defended his criticized response to the white supremacist violence in Charlottesville, omitting in his remarks to the crowd that he once said "both sides" carried blame for violence there.

Lemon said if Trump worked in his newsroom and said those things, he would be fired. Lemon then read out a tweet by CNN commentator Ana Navarro that the only "defensible explanation" for Trump's behavior would be early-onset dementia.

Modern day Tokyo Rose's like Don Lemon at the Fake News Media CNN have an INVERTED VIEW of the world.... It's as if they see everything through a mirror.

Keep in mind too these lying low life scum enemies accuse their foes of everything they are have done and are 100% guilty.

No Don it is YOU and your fellow cohorts enemy media that want a Civil War all because you lost an election. It is you Don that has dementia.

CNN pushes sedition and treason because its
ratings have fallen secondary to their not-so-smart
antiAmerican biased anchors & reporters.

After all they’ve said and done, Trump’s support is still just as strong and probably increasing. They must be terrified, eh?

May have dementia? If he does it would have been of *very* recent onset.At the campaign rally I attended in southern New Hampshire on 8/6/16 he sounded very,very lucid indeed!

Football players are required to take an IQ test as part of the draft.

Why aren’t media types? I dare say Don Lemon would barely crack 100.

We’re way past “save the watchs” stage with the left’s persistent bull shit and on to the “20,000 Leagues under the Clods” stage.

"He hasn't really said anything [to] denounce the alt-right …

Did Lemon not see the speech?

Oh? Clearly, is it? When one lives in a swamp, light is dim and nothing is clear. Not to mention the blind eyes..

Lemon is a kook and just comes across as desperate for ratings.

He doesn’t have to see the speech. The mere fact that anyone is allowed to say anything not in line with the left wing agenda is an act of war. How dare he!!!

CNN sucks.

Ana Navarro and Don Lemon should be fired.

They are not qualified to give such a diagnosis.

Clapper’s talking about ‘fitness to serve’ too. This is the talking point, expect to hear it for days. I hope it means the rats are running scared and that they’ve got good reason to do so.

Just a head's-up for those who haven't picked up on it...

On the way to work this morning, I was listening to NPR (opposition research, I know.) In any case, they had interviewed a "protester" at the Trump rally in Arizona yesterday. The guy was obviously a professional--he calmly and clearly said, "Trump is trying to start a civil war in this country..."

This is the new talking point, and perhaps a warning. Reading between the lines, I think the Left is ready to start this "civil war," and when skirmishes occur, they can blame Trump.

Conservatives don't want a "civil war" or any other, but if war should come, we're more ready than you.

Don Lemon prefers men and he claims Trump is deranged?
