CNN's Don Lemon declared Monday night that "we're going to have to blow up the entire system" if Democrats win back the Senate and White House in November's elections as he criticized the Electoral College.

"We're going to have to blow up the entire system," Lemon told Chris Cuomo during a handoff between the two hosts, when they usually opine for several minutes on top news items of the day.

"I don't know about that," Cuomo replied. "You're just going to have to vote."

"You're going to have to get rid of the Electoral College," Lemon continued. "Because the minority in this country get to decide who our judges are and who our president is. Is that fair?"

"You need a constitutional amendment to do that," Cuomo replied.

"And if Joe Biden wins, Democrats can stack the courts and they can do that amendment and get it passed," Lemon retorted, referring to the party's presidential nominee.

"Well, you need two-thirds vote in the Congress and three-quarters of the state legislatures," Cuomo noted.

"They may be able to do that," Lemon argued.

Surprised any CNN talking head was able to drop this knowledge

Lemon clearly didn't understand the amendment process

We already knew this. They want to destroy the American system and replace it with communism. This has been obvious for quite some time now.

Hey Don, minority rulings have been overriding the majority for at least 50 years now. Karma is your bitch.

Don Lemon not knowing how a constitutional amendment works is really sad. People need to learn more about their government and why the systems we put in place are there to begin with.

The entire point of the electoral college is to insulate against mob rule. Also life isn’t fair. It is exactly designed to allow the entire country to affect the election. Not just Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and a sprinkling of other large cities.

Someone should Photoshop Lemon’s face here.

Damn, Don Lemon is such a fricking idiot that Chris Cuomo has become a voice of reason.
