CNN constantly puts out questionable content, the bias is so strong it might as well be considered satire. But the Liberal News Network complains they want to be taken seriously and gets all bent out of shape when Trump berates them or when a politician calls them out for being liberal hacks. CNN proved, once again, just how biased they are after they alienated and bashed half the country while laughing.
It all happened during a Don Lemon segment.
“The panel, which originally aired on Saturday night during special live coverage of the impeachment trial, featured CNN anchor Don Lemon, New York Times columnist and CNN contributor Wajahat Ali, and ex-GOP strategist Rick Wilson discussing the heated exchange Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had with an NPR reporter, in which he allegedly challenged the journalist to point out Ukraine on a blank map.
“[Pompeo] also knows deep within his heart that Donald Trump couldn’t find Ukraine on a map if you had the letter U and a picture of an actual physical crane next to it,” Wilson began, causing Lemon to chuckle. “He knows that this is, you know, an administration defined by ignorance of the world. And so that’s partly him playing to the base and playing to their audience. You know, the credulous boomer rube demo that backs Donald Trump.”
As Lemon began crying with tears of laughter, Wilson went on to depict what he thought a typical Trump supporter sounded like.
“‘Donald Trump’s the smart one — any y’all elitists are dumb!'” Wilson said with a heavy southern accent.
“‘You elitists with your geography and your maps- and your spelling!'” Ali chimed in during the mockery.
“‘Your math and your reading!'” Wilson added. “‘All those lines on the map!'”
Watch The Clip Below.
The arrogance, the dismissiveness, the smug cackling, the accents.
If Donald Trump wins re-election this year, I’ll remember this brief CNN segment late one Saturday night in January as the perfect encapsulation for why it happened. pic.twitter.com/8kQ6zN9AZV

There was, of course, an outcry on Twitter over the attack on Trump supporters but really this should almost be expected. This is why CNN is struggling when it comes to ratings and really has no room to talk when they are called out for being biased.
Trump weighed in on CNN attacking half the country.
“Don Lemon, the dumbest man on television (with terrible ratings!).”
CNN just reminded everyone how Dems feel about Trump supporters and anyone who disagrees with them. That’s why Trump should win the next election because he doesn’t attack the people he works to serve them. Just look at our economy.
