Is Don Lemon preemptively aborting his termination?

According to Fox News, "[T]he news--plus barbs from social media trolls and other critics--may be too much for CNN's Don Lemon to bear much longer."

The leftist reporter/host of fake news' "CNN Tonight" told a New York City audience that due to the current "toxicity" in society and blames on the Trump presidency [but which CNN and MSNBC help to create] he may leave television in 2020 when the next presidential election begins.

"I don't know if it's worth this level of toxicity," the slightly less stupid of the Lemon-Chris Cuomo duo said, according to the Daily Beast.

The anchor also spoke about the negative feedback he solicits after making repugnant anti-POTUS statements and often false accusations that gets retracted later, after his small audience has gone on to other things and never hears the retraction. [It's also interesting how the mistakes that CNN and liberal media never err on the side of Trump, but always against him.]

“I was doing a shoot in the park the other day and someone [about half his audience] shouted at me, ‘I’m sick of watching you. We built this country. I can’t wait for CNN to fire your black a--, you f----t,'” the Lemon recalled, after having done nothing to build the country and everything to tear it down.

“So, all of those sorts of people call you on the phone and say those things, or they write you. I don’t go on social media anymore, it’s so toxic, [like CNN]” he added.

Lemon went on to blame Trump and the current climate.

“I’m black and gay on cable television in prime time — a unicorn — and I’m a target of the right, a target of white extremists, neo-Nazis and of the president,” Lemon said, according to Deadline.

He added, “ I wonder how long I will continue to do this particular job,” the Daily Beast reported.

Hopefully, not much longer.

Lemon speculated he might be happier as a celebrity chef, or perhaps doing journalism “in a different way.”  Like actually reporting the news with an unbiased approach and keeping his leftist opinions to himself.

But it's quite possible that Lemon has read the writing on the wall and knows that he's almost out the door at CNN and wants to pre-emptively be the one to make the move before getting the boot. It's the one time the black, gay, leftist doesn't want to play the intersectional victim card.
