“Real Time' host Bill Maher questioned former CNN host Don Lemon about his claim that he’s constantly been put in uncomfortable situations as a gay Black man.
Former CNN host Don Lemon was humbled after bringing up his race and sexual orientation during a segment on 'Real Time with Bill Maher' on Friday. Lemon spoke to Maher on a panel with New York University professor Scott Galloway about the ongoing pro-Palestinian protests taking place on several college campuses nationwide. All three men criticized the protests as antisemitic with Lemon referring to them as part of a 'fad.
While Galloway and Maher agreed to an extent, Lemon tried to elaborate. 'Listen, I'm different than you guys. I'm a Black gay man, so I live in uncomfortable spaces all the time. And I think that’s a good lesson for college students,' Lemon said. 'Why? What’s going on?' Maher asked. 'College is not a comfortable place. You learn—' Lemon said. 'No, but you said you live in those spaces. Just tell me what?' Maher pressed.
At the top of his Friday show, Maher criticized the anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian protests in a lengthy monologue decrying them as what happens when 'activism merges with narcissism.' 'You'd have to be pretty dumb to think that the way to bring people around to your point of view is to make them late to pick up their kids from daycare. And that's what most normies are thinking. 'I have a kid. I have a job.
