Don Lemon Asks Trump If He’s Racist, Bigoted, or Islamophobic

CNN’s Don Lemon tonight followed up on his past blunt questioning of Donald Trump by asking him if he’s racist, bigoted, or Islamophobic.

Trump bragged, “I am the least racist person that you have ever met.” He said he’s certainly not bigoted or Islamophobic, despite attacks of that nature after his proposal to ban all Muslims from coming to the United States.

He called himself a smart person with a “street sense” and touted how he warned about Osama bin Laden a year before 9/11.

Lemon asked him if any of the personal attacks bother him. Trump said, “If that were true, that would bother me tremendously.”
