A CNN panel is facing intense backlash on Monday night for mocking Trump supporters as "credulous boomer rubes," even sparking fierce condemnation from President Trump and his presidential campaign.

The panel, which originally aired on Saturday night during special live coverage of the impeachment trial, featured CNN anchor Don Lemon, New York Times columnist and CNN contributor Wajahat Ali, and ex-GOP strategist Rick Wilson discussing the heated exchange Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had with an NPR reporter, where he allegedly challenged the journalist to point out Ukraine on a blank map.

Wilson used the topic to mock President Trump as well as his supporters.

Lemon is a Rhodes Scholar Oxford University grad, as is Pete Buttigieg and Rachel Maddow. Which proves an Oxford degree is now as utterly worthless as a Nobel Peace Prize.

“Lemon is a Rhodes Scholar Oxford University grad, as is Pete Buttigieg and Rachel Maddow.“

Which proves a higher education has no impact upon common sense or virtue. None at all.

Interesting to note that the obnoxious white guy is a former GOP strategist.

As long as Mitt Romney, the Bush Family, neocons and NeverTrumpers are still aound, Rick Wilson is still a "GOP strategist."

And still a prick.

I said it on another thread, but it bears repeating: This would make a devastating political ad for Team Trump. The Silent Majority will show up again in droves.

Was the NPR reporter able to find Ukraine on a map or not?

Yes I was wondering that too.

I love when they expose themselves and ruin what little credibility they may have had left.

[ President Trump lives in their heads rent free and they just cannot help themselves, spewing the hatred that they do against half the country. ]

Every day they are acting out at Yahoo. TDS on full display.

CNN really shouldn't be claiming to be experts in geography.

Hey CNN. Ukraine isn't in the middle east and here is where the cities really are:

And a prick who will never have a place of power in the GOP ever again. He’s mad because Trump exposed he and the rest of the neocon RepubliCONS. Now they’re reduced to being lap dogs for the RATS on MSNBC and CNN!
