Don Lemon Says ‘I Don’t See Democrats Killing People.’ Scalise Helps Him See More Clearly.

John Bickley

CNN host Don Lemon made sure to impose his overtly partisan view of the horrific mass shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue and the series of package bombs sent by a lunatic in Florida during a panel discussion on CNN Monday night. From Lemon’s perspective, the group to blame for the violence is, of course, Republicans and the right-wing media because, he suggested, Democrats don’t commit such violence. Actually, he didn’t just suggest it, he outright said it before being called out on his own show.

In response to conservative commentator Mike Shields pointing out that Republican Rep. Steve Scalise was grievously wounded by a left-wing mass shooter who repeatedly screamed “This is for health care!” as he opened fire on a Republican congressional baseball practice, Lemon blasted Shields for what he said was an unfair comparison.
