CNN's Don Lemon slams Trump's remarks in wake of New Zealand mosque murders: 'For him not to be able to know that right-wing extremism is on the rise is very ignorant.”
CNN host Don Lemon slammed President Donald Trump for his recent comments about white nationalism in the wake of mass shootings at two New Zealand mosques on Friday that left at least 49 people dead.
The White House sent out a similar statement, writing that the United States “strongly condemns” the “vicious act of hate” that took place on Friday. “I don’t really. I think it’s a small group of people that have very, very serious problems. It’s certainly a terrible thing,” Trump told reporters on Friday.
“I think, yes, he does whatever is politically expedient to him,” Lemon responded. “He knows that he says he’s not racist but the racists think he’s racists and they support him and he doesn’t want to lose that support.”
