OFT EVIL WILL SHALL EVIL MAR:   Don Lemon Did Trump a Huge Favor. 

 

“A video of CNN news anchor Don Lemon laughing hysterically as his guests mocked Donald Trump’s supporters went viral this week — and it couldn’t have been a more effective campaign ad for the president. . . . Make no mistake: Clips like this embolden Trump’s supporters. They don’t see this sort of mockery and start to question their beliefs — rather, it just strengthens their view that it is them (and Trump) against the world. It makes them more loyal to the president, not less.”

 

 

 

 

And rightly so. When people tell you they hate you and hold you in contempt, believe them.

This clip is such a perfect example of what the left and the media has become. It doesn’t even phase me, I actually feel somewhat sorry for these bozos. Yeah, they are wealthy and famous, but immediately underneath the facade are deeply insecure and self loathing people. 
 

I have this theory that people like this were kind of social outcasts most of their life, especially in childhood, and now that they have their taste of fame and fortune are using their position to mask an early lifetime of isolation and ridicule and get as much pay back as possible. Sad really.

Actually, I think it has more to do with the very thing one of them mocked; uneducated. Most of these media people are quick to discuss their higher education. It's how they identify themselves. "I have this many masters" or "I graduated from Harvard" etc. Based on their degree, they consider themselves superior to others who may not have been able to attend ivy league colleges, and especially the people who do the heavy lifting in this country...the Mike Rowe laborers; plumbers, welders, farmers, electricians, etc.

 

These are the uneducated rubes they look down on and mock.I think it's even sadder than your example because they simply are unable to understand the irony of the person with multiple degrees sounding like the dumbest person in the room.

Great points. Many get their degrees because they are able to memorize and regurgitate facts. And ego-stroke professors. Unfortunately for them, that doesn't automatically convey intelligence. Conversely, I've met many people that only graduated high school who showed great ability to gather information/assess a situation, formulate well thought out positions, leading to beneficial actions for themselves, their families, and/or co-workers. 

 

Higher education has been subpar in this country for many years, and we are started to see the results.

I do not think higher education is subpar overall but we have a lot of people who see a doctorate in sociology as equal to a doctorate in medicine. I teach in high school and we have 4 "doctors" on my campus- the two dumb ones always point out to the new people they should referred to as Dr. NAME and not just Mrs. NAME. Their biggest accomplishment is simply getting the degree, not the ability to use it.

You sound like a rare teacher who hasn't bought into the leftist mentality of the academia.

Probably not intentional but made me smile.

BTW, my dad is one of those "street smart" guys that did quite well for himself and family.
