Trump launched a racist attack on CNN’s Don Lemon as he proclaimed himself the least racist person in the world.
Trump was feeling neglected, so he went racist on Don Lemon
Trump tweeted:
CNN’s Don Lemon, the dumbest man on television, insinuated last night while asking a debate “question” that I was a racist, when in fact I am “the least racist person in the world.” Perhaps someone should explain to Don that he is supposed to be neutral, unbiased & fair,…..

….or is he too dumb (stupid} to understand that. No wonder CNN’s ratings (MSNBC’s also) have gone down the tubes – and will stay there until they bring credibility back to the newsroom. Don’t hold your breath!

Trump will now act out with racism when he feels ignored
The hilarious thing about Trump’s tweets is that he put his own quote about himself being the least racist person in the world in quotation marks. Donald Trump is quoting Donald Trump to prove that Donald Trump is not a racist.
Trump felt like Democrats were getting too much attention, so he tried to take the spotlight back with a fresh batch of racism. Trump admitted that there is no grand political strategy behind his racist attacks. Trump is just a racist, and when he feels like African-Americans have done him wrong, which appears to be every single day of his life, he lashes out with racism. Trump has been trying to racially divide the country for weeks, so Don Lemon’s question was more than legitimate. It isn’t a coincidence that Trump didn’t think Jake Tapper was dumb. Tapper is white, so in Trump’s mind, he has to be smart.
Donald Trump’s wants the attention, but he doesn’t want to be labeled a racist, which means that any outlet that reports on Trump’s attacks must also point out that he is a racist.
