CNN anchor Don Lemon continued to express his contempt for Trump voters, this time for his support for the president’s ongoing electoral challenge.
During Monday night’s transfer with his prime-time colleague Chris Cuomo, Lemon criticized what he considered the “ridiculous” argument Republican Party lawmakers are making, doubting the authenticity of President Trump’s defeat, without questioning the victories of his own party, many of them on the same ballot in several states.
Lemon then sneered at the lawmakers’ allegations that they are opposing the election of President-elect Biden’s Electoral College on behalf of the millions of Trump voters and their concerns about voter fraud and irregularities allegations.
CNN’S DON LEMON COMPARES TRUMP SUPPORTERS TO DRUG ADDICTS: ‘THEY NEED TO GET TO THE ROCK BOTTOM’ FOR HELP
“Why do they believe that? It’s because you are telling them! Of course, they will believe it!” Lemon exclaimed. “If you stopped saying that to them and started telling the truth, maybe they would believe the truth, that it was not stolen and that it was a clean election according to everyone who investigated, most of them Republicans.”
He continued: “So stop staying so that we can respect Trump supporters who believe in bulls — because they are bulls — that you have been feeding them! The president and you, you have been feeding them with BS and now that they believe, once again, in another self-fulfilling prophecy and feedback loop. ”
Lemon has a long history of firing and attacking Trump supporters. In October, the CNN Tonight anchor compared Trump supporters to drug addicts, saying “I think they have to hit rock bottom like an addict, right?” while he explained how he needed to “get rid” of the friends who supported the president.

In August, the CNN anchor accused them of having “cognitive dissonance” to support a “bad person”.
In January, Lemon faced an intense reaction after laughing hysterically as his panel mocked Trump voters as “gullible” illiterates.
