CNN had a meltdown last night over President Trump's speech at a rally in Phoenix. While Jim Acosta and Brian Stelter whined on Twitter about not being involved in Trump's announcements, Don Lemon tore into the President in a straight up rant.

"Well, what do you say to that?" Lemon exclaimed after Trump ended his speech, before launching into a rant 'from the heart'.

"He's unhinged. It's embarrassing, and I don't mean for us, the media, because he went after us, but for the country," Lemon said. "This is who we elected President of the United States?"

Adding that the speech represented a "total eclipse of the facts," and that the President has "lied directly" to the American people in an "attempt to rewrite history," Lemon declared "His speech was without thought."

"It was without reason. It was devoid of facts. It was devoid of wisdom. There was no gravitas. There was no sanity there." Lemon urged.

The host continued to lay into the President, becoming more agitated as he spoke, calling Trump "a man who is so petty that he has to go after people who he deems to be his enemy, like an imaginary friend of a six-year-old."

"He certainly opened up the race wound from Charlottesville," Lemon added, stating that Trump is "clearly trying to ignite a civil war in this country," and concluding that Trump is "a man backed into a corner it seems by circumstances beyond his control and beyond his understanding."

Lemon's guests then proceeded to parrot his words, calling Trump "unhinged" and even "psychotically demented".
