The legacy media's Trump Derangement Syndrome has officially reached peak absurdity. Disgraced former CNN anchor Don Lemon—the same man who was unceremoniously dumped by the failing network—has now resorted to flying to Russia to interview Vladimir Putin in what can only be described as a desperate attempt to remain relevant.
And Patriots, the results were nothing short of pathetic.
From CNN's Primetime to Putin's Propaganda Tool
Let's be clear about what happened here: a former American news anchor, who spent years accusing President Trump of being a "Russian asset," literally traveled to Moscow to sit down with Putin himself. The irony is so thick you could cut it with a knife.
During the interview, Lemon predictably tried to bait Putin into attacking President Trump—because that's all these people know how to do. But here's where it gets interesting: Putin, a former KGB officer who knows how to handle amateur propagandists, essentially toyed with Lemon like a cat with a wounded mouse.
The Russian president refused to give Lemon the anti-Trump soundbites he so desperately craved, instead offering measured responses that left the former CNN host visibly frustrated.
The Real Story the Mainstream Media Won't Tell You
What Lemon and his legacy media friends don't understand—or refuse to acknowledge—is that President Trump's peace-through-strength approach is actually WORKING. While Biden spent four years bumbling through foreign policy disasters and bringing us to the brink of World War III, Trump has returned to the White House with a clear mandate to end the endless conflicts.
The Trump administration's diplomatic efforts have already shown more promise in one week than the entire Biden regime accomplished in four years. And that's exactly what terrifies the establishment media.
"They can't stand that Trump is succeeding where they said he would fail. So they resort to stunts like this—flying to Russia to try to manufacture controversy."
The desperation is palpable, folks.
How the Mighty Have Fallen
Remember when Don Lemon was CNN's golden boy? When he lectured Americans night after night about "democracy" and "norms" while his network peddled the Russia collusion hoax for years? Now he's reduced to chasing interviews with foreign leaders, hoping someone—anyone—will pay attention to him.
This is what happens when you spend your entire career lying to the American people. Eventually, the audience leaves. The platform disappears. And you're left begging for relevance on the world stage.
Meanwhile, President Trump is in the Oval Office, actually delivering results for the American people: securing our border, bringing back American jobs, and restoring our standing in the world.
The Bottom Line
Don Lemon's Putin interview isn't news—it's a symptom of a dying media class that still can't accept the reality that Donald Trump is the legitimate, democratically-elected President of the United States. Again.
The American people saw through the lies in 2024, and they'll continue to see through these pathetic attempts to undermine our Commander-in-Chief.
So here's the question every Patriot should be asking: Why is the legacy media more interested in cozying up to foreign leaders than reporting honestly about the incredible things happening right here at home under President Trump's leadership?
We already know the answer. And so do you.
