As Twitchy reported, Dan Rather, the godfather of fake news, got his panties in a wad early Saturday morning after President Trump called CNN’s Don Lemon “the dumbest man on television” in a “racist” tweet:
Lebron James was just interviewed by the dumbest man on television, Don Lemon. He made Lebron look smart, which isn’t easy to do. I like Mike!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 4, 2018
OK, maybe not the most presidential tweet, but it triggered a response from Lemon:
Who’s the real dummy? A man who puts kids in classrooms or one who puts kids in cages? #BeBest https://t.co/XO50qVksnR

A man who puts kids in cages … a man who puts kids in cages … the guy’s name is on the tip of our tongues … we think it’s his birthday today.

Just because CNN didn’t cover the Obama administration putting kids in cages doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
Why are you picking on Obama??

Kids in cages? Why are you calling Obama a dummy on his birthday?

It's admirable that you are finally telling the truth about Obama but you should name him by name. https://t.co/yn3RB2LQ5P

Obama put the Kids in cages. Stop lying…oh wait you can’t, That’s how one stays employed at CNN https://t.co/4DJwcPinf9

Those kids in cages were put there by Obama, (unless you mean FDR…interesting pattern there).

You should ask Obama, he put plenty of children in cages, but you close your eyes to that.

Narrator Says: @BarackObama executed the orders of the 9th Circuit and separated children from their parents and placed them in cages and the current administration is following these same orders. @donlemon

LeBron is no dummy. Now about the man who put kids in cages.. I guess you conveniently forgot Obama's kids who often weren't even fed or given blankets in their cages. These photos are from Obama's era in 2014. Let's be fair and balanced, eh Jim? pic.twitter.com/fxr8BPY6pE

Jim? Poor soul probably has Acosta on the brain from overexposure.
The controversy was that he wasn’t putting kids in cages w/ their parents. Lol. As a “reporter” you’d think you would have a better grip on the issues. If you’d like to educate yourself, the ACLU has a report showing how Obama had separated and place over 500k children in cages.

Love what Lebron did but this is the dumbest tweet I’ve ever read. Your Trump hate really makes you sound ignorant.

But there is no anti-Trump bias on CNN. https://t.co/q7jkaShEsX

No bias from this White House correspondent:
