What would Lex Luthor think of mutants?

[Handsome men don't lose fights]

Just ask/look at Norman Osborne and you'll get the answer.

Gotta disagree. Norman is bug-eating crazy. His actions against Utopia were based entirely on psychotic paranoia. Lex is rational; he's just a dick.

Norman would totally steal a set of Lex's power armor, though. The color scheme would make it too tempting.

[Thirteen]

Lex would have his own "No More Mutants" moment (see Luthor's Everymen in 52)

[Uncanny X-Man]

I think Lex would have a stance similar to what Doctor Doom expressed in the FF/X-Men mini by Chip Zdarsky... how dare mutants consider themselves superior just because they were born with powers.

[The Overlord]

Lex Luthor hates Superman because Superman is more popular than him, it's a hatred born of jealousy. The fact that mutants are hated would mean Lex would not hate them, instead, he would see them as a resource to exploit.

Yeah Genoshan Magistrates... that.. that's what Lex would do.

I think Lex would be a little more subtle than that, he could not have mutant slaves in a public manner and still have a popular reputation. He would find a way to exploit mutants or exploit mutant-human tension for his bottom line, he would do that.

Right, but he'd happily fund such a scheme if he wasn't publicly connected.
