CNN anchor Don Lemon this week took a shot at former President Trump ahead of his new role anchoring CNN’s morning program, saying that while he looks forward to starting the next chapter in his career — he hopes it will go beyond “tribal politics.”
“I would be lying to you if I didn’t say that was a factor,” Lemon said of his move to mornings in an interview with news startup Semafor. “I never really butted heads with the last president. He didn’t have the courage to come on and take hard questions from CNN and me and my show. Look, has it been frustrating over the last couple of years having to deal with politics in the way it’s been dealt with in primetime? Yes. Was I tired of it? In some ways, yeah it’s gotten old. But I also think we were transitioning to a different time.”

Yeah, after all, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris go on Hannity all the time....
I thought CNN was going to fire all their losers?
Why would Trump want to come on your show Don and be subjected to a slime ball like you?
Yep, he was afraid he’d lose IQ points.
Trump can go on almost any program he likes. Trump views you as a loser who lost his prime-time show due to weak ratings, suggests Lemon is widely regarded as “the dumbest man on television” who makes LeBron James look smarter. Why would he waste his time with Loser Lemon?
Trump already stated his opinion of Lemon, “dumbest man on TV”.
There ya go again ...
trying to be relevant ...
Don, the problem with Trump’s non-appearance has nothing to do with courage.
It has everything to do with common sense. You’re not a journalist looking to truly interview or question people like Donald Trump. You are a tele-advocate, a liberal one. Your sole purpose is to proselytize and/or try to score cheap political points.
Why would he, what did you have? 10 Viewers?
By far the dumbest man ever given a show in prime time for news and opinion.
Lemon on his best day doesn’t even reach the level of a hack.
You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.
I thought lemon got fired?
He probably didn’t even know you or that you had a show. And if he did he probably thought it was some kind of gay porn program.
Don Lemon is a lemon.
No, Don....he had the GOOD COMMON SENSE to not appear on your show.
Don Lemon is the “token loser”, which means that if he is fired, it would take extraordinarily extreme circumstances.
Don Lemon has an uncommonly high estimation of his own charisma and significance. Might do all right on a high school debate team, though.
FIFY
“Don Lemon is the dumbest man on television “
Trump
Or maybe Don, its more likely you just weren't worth the time or effort.
