From Media Matters: Don Lemon on Trump's speech (video & quote)

https://www.mediamatters.org/video/2017/08/22/cnns-don-lemon-trumps-speech-sounded-child-blaming-sibling-something-he-did/217733


DON LEMON (HOST): This is who we elected president of the United States. A man who is so petty that he has to go after people who he deems to be his enemy like an imaginary friend of a six-year-old. His speech was without thought, it was without reason, it was devoid of facts, it was devoid of wisdom. There was no gravitas, there was no sanity there. He was like a child blaming a sibling on something else. He did it, I didn't do it. He certainly opened up the race wound from Charlottesville. A man clearly wounded by the rational people who are abandoning him in droves meaning those business people and the people in Washington now who are questioning his fitness for office and whether he is stable. A man backed into a corner it seems by circumstances beyond his control and beyond his understanding.

Don Lemon, well said. Dump is an unhinged maniac. This can't continue. Impeachment and removal has to be on the table.
