Contentious Spat With GOP Candidate May Have Been Don Lemon’s Last Straw: Report

CNN has made headlines by cutting ties with longtime anchor Don Lemon, and it seems that a heated debate with Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy may have been the final straw. According to The New York Times, the segment left several CNN leaders “exasperated” after Lemon accused Ramaswamy of “race-splaining” and claimed that he was not equipped to discuss Civil Rights because he was not black. The debate began with comments Ramaswamy made at the recent National Rifle Association (NRA) convention, in which he detailed the beginnings of gun control in the United States as a means used by Democrats to prevent black Americans from exercising constitutional rights once the Civil War was over. The conversation quickly veered off course as Lemon joined in, and the two continued to argue about the history of the Civil War and the rights of black Americans. Despite Ramaswamy’s attempts to steer the conversation back to the content of their ideas, Lemon repeatedly interrupted and accused him of being dishonest. The segment ended with Lemon abruptly cutting off the debate, leaving viewers wondering what had just happened.
