Former CNN Anchor Don Lemon Criticizes Melania Trump’s Comments On Assassination Attempt

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon has sparked controversy with his response to Melania Trump's comments about the recent assassination attempt on her husband, Donald Trump.

According to The Post Millennial, Lemon appeared to mock the former First Lady's emotional reaction in a video circulating online.

In the video, Lemon is seen making dismissive facial expressions as Melania Trump describes the incident as a "horrible and distressing experience."

The former news anchor's behavior has drawn criticism from some quarters, particularly given the serious nature of the event being discussed.

Melania Trump Questions Security Measures During Incident

Melania Trump's video, which prompted Lemon's reaction, included her expressing concerns about the security measures in place during the assassination attempt.

She questioned why law enforcement had not arrested the shooter before the incident occurred.

The former First Lady stated, "I can't help but wonder, why didn't law enforcement officials arrest the shooter before the speech? There is definitely more to the story and we need to uncover the truth."

These comments refer to reported security lapses on the day of the attack. The shooter, identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, had allegedly flown a drone near the rally site and was seen with suspicious equipment prior to the incident.

Security Failures And Secret Service Director's Resignation

The assassination attempt on Donald Trump has brought to light multiple security failures that occurred on the day of the incident.

Despite exhibiting behavior that could have been considered suspicious, the shooter managed to position himself on a rooftop to fire shots at the former President.

Reports indicate that Crooks was observed walking around with a rangefinder and a backpack before the attack. These potential red flags apparently went unnoticed or were not acted upon by security personnel present at the event.

The apparent lack of intervention by the Secret Service has led to public outcry and scrutiny of the agency's protocols. As a result of the controversy surrounding these security lapses, Kimberly Cheatle, the Director of the Secret Service, has resigned from her position.

Melania Trump's Upcoming Memoir And Public Profile

Melania Trump's video commentary on the assassination attempt comes as she prepares for the release of her upcoming memoir. The book, simply titled "Melania," is scheduled to be published on October 1.

The memoir is being promoted as "the powerful and inspiring story of a woman who has defined personal excellence, overcome adversity, and carved her own path."

This description suggests that the book will offer insights into Melania's experiences as First Lady and her life before and after her time in the White House.

The timing of the video and its connection to her book promotion has led some to speculate about the former First Lady's motivations for speaking out about the assassination attempt at this time.

Conclusion

Don Lemon, a former CNN anchor, has faced criticism for his reaction to Melania Trump's comments about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

Melania expressed concern over security failures during the incident, which led to the resignation of the Secret Service Director. The former First Lady's statements come as she prepares to release her memoir, adding context to her increased public presence.
