And why? Because it's CNN, that's why!
We always do a lot of "what if's" and reverse the roles...
Holy McMoly - can you imagine had Trump come out and stated that he thought that black men represent the biggest terrorist threat in our country? Yikes! Hell, for that fact, even just stating that they are any major threat at all, let alone a terror threat of some sort.
Or what if it were stated by Bret Baier, or any other news anchor on Fox news? Hannity? Fat boy Limbaugh? ANYONE on the right?
But someone on the left says it and it barely gets a blurb. Hillary Clinton mentions black people all looking alike, and barely a blurb. "She was just joking". Sure, and had Trump said the same, or even similar? Sure!

CNN not commenting on Lemon's remark about white men
NEW YORK (AP) — CNN isn't commenting about Don Lemon's statement that white men represent the biggest terrorist threat in the country.
Lemon's statement, on his show Monday, attracted criticism in conservative circles. He was talking about the negative attention given to a caravan of potential refugees in central America. Meanwhile, white men are the suspects in recent shootings of two blacks in Kentucky and at a synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Lemon said that, "we have to stop demonizing people and realize that the biggest terror threat in this country is white men, most of them radicalized to the right, and we have to start doing something about them."
A CNN spokeswoman said Wednesday neither Lemon nor the network would speak more about it.
