'You are part of the problem': Don Lemon tears into John Kasich for defending Trump on Ukraine

CNN host Don Lemon ripped John Kasich after the former Ohio governor said he does not believe President Trump offered an explicit quid pro quo in his July phone call with the Ukrainian president.

"You can't say stuff like that," the Ohio Republican said Monday night after the CNN anchor asserted that "anybody with half a brain" knows Trump was asking Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden in exchange for military aid.

"There are people that read that transcript and have a disagreement with what it means," Kasich added, saying he did "not see a clear quid pro quo."

"Then you’re doing exactly what the apologists are doing," Lemon told Kasich. "You’re not helping people understand the problem, then you are part of the problem."

Too many members of the media act like petty fascists.   The fourth estate is a disgrace.

Of late Kasich is not predictably against anything/everything involving Trump.

Maybe that surprised Lemon.
