Far-left former CNN host Don Lemon got caught off-guard on the New York City streets over the weekend when a politically incorrect man gave him a much-deserved verbal smackdown.
On Sunday, Lemon decided to conduct a series of interviews on the streets of New York over the weekend to learn where they were from and get their take on current events. For the most part, Lemon was greeted warmly, with some even proclaiming themselves fans.
But about 28 minutes into the video, Lemon came across a bald guy in a light blue dress shirt, who was not exactly pleased to see him. Lemon, though, greeted him anyway.
This quickly backfired when the no-nonsense individual uttered some choice words to the former CNN hack, including calling him a f**king moron.
Lemon tried to play it off and pushed back by snarking that he’s glad the man watches him. But Lemon was left shocked when the gentleman stated he never did, but constantly got unwanted online clips of Lemon’s nonsense.
He smacked down Lemon again after the former CNN ‘star’ was confused by why he was calling MSNBC and CNN “full of sh*t.
