In a video meltdown, Don Lemon insults Trump supporters as "dumb f---ing idiots" and mocks their "stupid MAGA brain."
Lemon criticized MAGA supporters, calling them "so f---ing stupid" and deserving of their actions.
Don Lemon, a former CNN host, released a profanity-laden video on YouTube criticizing MAGA supporters.
During an episode of The Don Lemon Show, Lemon referred to supporters of President-elect Donald Trump as "dumb f---ing idiots" and made fun of their "stupid MAGA brain."
"You're so stupid and you deserve it," he said. "Yes, I am gloating over your stupidity."
"You've been co-opted because you're in a cult and you don't even realize it because you have a MAGA brain and you don't understand it," he said. "How dumb and foolish are you?"
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) co-chairs, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, caused a rift among the MAGA base last week by expressing their support for H-1B visas for skilled workers.
Steve Bannon, a faction leader of the party, considers H-1B visas a scam that steals American jobs and brings in low-wage indentured servants. He made this statement on his "War Room" podcast.
Over the weekend, Trump expressed his support for H-1B visas, aligning with Musk and Ramaswamy's stance. Lemon mentioned Sriram Krishnan, who was appointed as a senior adviser on artificial intelligence by president-elect Trump.
Krishnan's appointment sparked a backlash on social media due to his past advocacy for increasing green card and immigration.
"Oh no, immigration," he scoffed. "We can't handle immigration because it stirs up some people. You know what they're saying about the anti-immigration movement, don't you?" he chuckled. "Who's to say that one of the jobs you're looking for won't be one of those White-only positions?"
In April 2023, Lemon was fired from CNN due to a series of scandals, including alienating female viewers and conservative audiences. Lemon, known for his openly left-wing views, has compared Trump supporters to Ku Klux Klan members, defended Antifa, and fumed over people not vaccinated against coronavirus "taking up the space" in hospitals, among other news-making moments.
Recently, Time Magazine was criticized by Lemon for selecting Trump as their Person of the Year, with Lemon deeming the decision a "joke."
Lemon stated that if they wanted to select someone as Person of the Year, they could have chosen anyone, including someone who advocates for democracy in their country.
