CNN’s Don Lemon justifies Antifa violence: ‘You gotta fight fire with fire’ — Video

As we reported earlier, CNN propagandist Chris Cuomo defended violence by the domestic terrorists that make up Antifa, calling their actions morally justified.  It got worse, however, as Newsbusters reported that fellow propagandist Don Lemon doubled down.

“Sometimes you can’t fight by praising them or being nice to them. You gotta fight fire with fire,” he said.

“Let me just say this though, you ask why [Trump] doesn’t call out — because the white nationalists are winning right now. This helps their cause, their case. For the president to be equivocating between whether it’s Antifa or whatever, fine people on both sides, that actually helps their case,” he added.

He went on to blame Fox News for the violence.

“At the same time of this rise of the alt-right, which is really white supremacists, we’re hearing Fox News hosts strike the same tones of racial anxiety and white panic,” he said.

Alec Sears added:

Of course Fox News is the true reason that about 25 racists gathered in a park. It would never be because the liberal media gives them so much air time it increases their stature. In the future, if CNN and others want to save any shred of credibility they still have, they should stop giving crazed white nationalists screen time, and maybe even focus on Antifa attacking those in uniform.
