Don Lemon believes that if Donald Trump is given less airtime by cable news channels he will be forced to hold a press conference.

The president-elect has not held a press conference in five months, and has chosen instead to use Twitter to announce his cabinet nominations. The CNN anchor said that if he was a news executive, he would not cover Trump’s tweets.

“Can I say something?” Lemon said on the air Tuesday. “That’s the whole point

This Lemon is a real egghead. You aren’t going to “force” Trump to do anything. I don’t care what you do. It’s the difference between an American businessman and an America-hating politician.

They can’t ignore hos tweets - news about Trump is the only way they can get folks to listen to them....it would last 10 seconds until the first one “scooped” the others....

“He still needs us more than we need him,” he added.

"Trump's empty podium gets 30 minutes of airtime"

Oh, please Mr. Lemon, go ahead and ignore his tweets, and that’ll make it that much easier for us to ignore you. To be honest, as a Trump supporter, I’m more than happy with Trump tweeting what he wants us to know. I really don’t actually feel the need to know much about what he’s doing, what matters will be the results, and with him, he’s got about three years and ten months to produce.

“I’m starting to believe Trump doesn’t care much for the lying media.”

Trump said, as president-elect and when he’s president, he would rather tweet than to speak to the media. That way, they won’t twist what he says to their liking.

Trump will hold a press conference when he feels like it. Doesn’t mean CNN will be invited.

Guys like Lemon are in denial. They refuse to acknowledge hoe irrelevant they’re become.

Agreed.
They are all hoes, the whole lot of them...

They all have internet, and most likely get more news from that then CNN anymore. If not, then they will figure Trump died I guess if they refuse to report on him, LOL.

I haven’t watched CNN or any other news channel in at least 10 years. So, I gotta ask, “Who is Don Lemmon, and why should I give a frack about what he thinks or says?”

Donald Trump has 18 million twitter followers, which is more people who generally watch CNN (1.21 million prime time viewers).

Why should Trump pay attention to CNN?

First of all, he hasn't been sworn in yet. Why would he have to hold a press conference?

Secondly....who are you to tell him what to do.

Third....Learn to be patient.

That would be the best news for Trump, that the media stops covering him.

Hahahahaaaaa.

He doesn’t need them.
