By The First 54 mins ago Donald Trump weighed-in Monday on the termination of Don Lemon over at CNN, saying “the dumbest man on television has been fired.”
“Good News: ‘The dumbest man on television,’ Don Lemon, has finally been fired from Fake News CNN. My only question is, WHAT TOOK THEM SO LONG?” posted Trump on Truth Social.
CNN announced on Monday that they were ending their contract with Don Lemon after a 17 year run at the network. This news came after Lemon had a short, yet controversial tenure as a morning show co-host.
CNN stated that Lemon would always be a part of the CNN family and thanked him for his contributions over the years. According to CNN’s statement, Lemon’s morning show, which he co-hosted with Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins, would continue. The show, called “CNN This Morning,” had been on the air for almost six months and the network expressed their commitment to its success.
Lemon released a statement on Twitter, making it clear that his departure was not a mutual decision:
I was informed this morning by my agent that I have been terminated by CNN. I am stunned. After 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly. At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play. With that said, I want to thank my colleagues and the many teams I have worked with for an incredible run. They are the most talented journalists in the business, and I wish them all the best.

So do you or you wouldn't be here. You offer your opinions FReely and I'm betting that you don't possess a fraction of the world experience that Trump has.
Foxnews will hire Don Lemon....
He is in luck though: Faux News suddenly has an opening.
Aw, you beat me to it!
Olberman and Fedo are a close second.
A grandpa who has his foot on the gas and won’t let up! I’ll take him and his vast life experience and resume of accomplishments , any day.
And I like the way he talks.
After a recent move to the Storage B in the Morning show...
So, uh, Don has been let go?
Well, just a second there, professor.
We, uh, we fixed the glitch.
So, he won’t be receiving a paycheck anymore, so it’ll just work itself out naturally.
We always like to avoid confrontation, whenever possible.
Problem is solved from your end.
