Journalist Don Lemon has a message for former President Donald Trump about him being called a threat to democracy.

On Monday, Lemon appeared as a guest on CNN, his first time after he was fired from the network in 2023, and said, “For Donald Trump and his folks to say – and JD Vance to say – that it’s Democrats who are causing this… that’s an issue.”

“I wrote down some notes when I saw it. Do you mind if I read this?” he asked.

After asking if he could read his notes, he read a list of stuff Trump has said:

So, he’s called everyone who works in this building ‘the enemy of the people,’ right? We had pipe bombs sent because he kept calling us ‘the enemy of the people,’ and that CNN was fake news. Crooked Joe. Crooked Hillary. Crooked Kamala. Comrade Kamala. Deranged Jack Smith. Birdbrain Nikki Haley. Bloodbath if he’s not elected. There won’t be another election if he’s not elected. Bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. Poisoning the blood of our country. Destroying the blood of our country, which is something that was Hitler-esque. Communists. Marxists. Fascists. Left-leaning that live like vermin. Sons of bitches to NBA players. Shithole countries. Haiti was one, and now he’s blaming Haitian immigrants for things. Blood coming out of her wherever as he talked about Megyn Kelly.”

Finally, Lemon said, “And so if Donald Trump wants people, wants Kamala Harris and others to stop saying that he is a threat to democracy, then he should stop threatening democracy. Perhaps he shouldn’t be trying to overturn elections, overthrow the government, and inciting insurrections.”

The post comes after Trump was the target of a second apparent assassination attempt at his golf club in Florida.
