Don Lemon's timbre has never quivered so much. Even when he wept while reciting his own philippic to President Trump, the CNN host wasn't this unmistakably grave.
"The rioting has to stop ... it's showing up in the polling, it's showing up in focus groups," he warned Tuesday night, referencing the nightly violence in cities like Portland, Ore. and Kenosha, Wis. Lemon was conversing with fellow host and quarantine scofflaw Chris Cuomo, but he was speaking directly to his target audience: Democrats, elected or otherwise.

Democratic executives are starting to cave, after giving tacit approval to the smoking out of their metro downtowns. Wisconsin's Governor Evers has requested that the Wisconsin National Guard step in to temper the Kenosha unrest. Oregon's governor, Kate Brown, put out a Twitter dictum, practically begging the malcontents to vacate: "It's time for the violence and vandalism to end so Portland can focus on the important work to be done to achieve real change for racial justice." With that kind of stern ultimatum, it's a virtual guarantee those Portland rascals will pick up their trash and put away their toys before heading home. Even D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser is joining the tut-tut bandwagon, criticizing BLM activists after they bawled out white diners for not showing enough fealty to the cause.
If spectators look closely, they can see Democratic campaign coaches on the sidelines calling the next audible.

The Radical Left (i.e., the commies) see the violence as needed to overthrow the system and replace it with a Marxist one.
They now own the Democrat Party and most of the media.
Don Lemon wasn't thinking of the Marxist agenda when he made his comment. He was thinking about politics as usual (i.e., getting Slo Joe and the Ho elected).
I'll bet someone paid Don a visit after he made this comment and told him to STFU.
That is all Don Lemon and the Dems care about: Who wins in November. That is why the outcry from Lemon and finally Biden.
They see the internal poll numbers. There was no Dem convention bounce. We know that is true BECAUSE we never heard about it. Therefore, it did not happen.
The polls are showing that INDEPENDENTS do not like the rioting. The soccer moms want to feel safe. Black men are pissed about these riots. They are happening in their neighborhoods not ours.
Most of us are not directly affected by these riots. We(FReepers) live in the country or the suburbs. Very of us live in these cities where the rioting/increased crime is happening. However, it is happening in the minority neighborhoods. Now, it is happening in a small city in WI.
People are concerned. They know the people to blame are not the Republicans. They rightly so are blaming the Democrats.
Richard Nixon won the biggest landslide in the history of the US because he was the Law and order candidate. McGovern supported the rioters. History is repeating itself.
It would make a really nice montage to show at the RNC of all the Democrats and their MSM mouthpieces claiming they are “mostly peaceful” “protests” with footage of the violent riots in the background. Then show them talking about how it was justified, how it was righteous, blah blah blah.
Remind the American people again and again and again that Democrats sponsored, winked at and openly supported the riots.
Oh, I agree with you, Don Lemon! It's terrible what the BLM Burning Looting Marauders and the Antifa fascists are doing, destroying homes, destroying businesses, ruining people's livelihoods, assaulting police officers and innocent civilians. Yes, it's just horrible and reprehensible! You are so right, Don Lemon!
". . . it's showing up in the polling, it's showing up in focus groups."
Oh wait! It's not because of the inherent evil of the rioting that you say it must stop. Do I have that right, Don Lemon? No, you object because it will hurt Democrat chances in November. Well, in that case, I say . . .
HA! HA!
Lemon aid for the DUFUs?
Hmmmm indeed. Would almost make one have a sneaking suspicion that the radical response to the virus -- lockdowns, making people with masks seem ordinary -- would pave the way for rioting the next time a black person died in police custody.
Once you let the anarchists out to play it’s hard to get them back on the Rez.
Here is the truth -
The left believed it was good for them politically to create firestorms of chaos, racial division, death, and destruction in their own cities. They tried to do the same in red states/cities without success.
Here are the results -
They have destroyed deep blue communities, destroyed property and businesses, destroyed jobs and retail business, and made their own constituents cower in fear.
Worst of all, in the inner cities where gang violence had been suppressed, we are seeing shootings and homicides increase sharply. Among the victims are innocent children being shot because the police have been withdrawn. Hundreds of thousands of children now live in fear in what could best be described as warzones where gang members roam with guns ready to spray bullets at their rivals.
Schools are shut down with little justification simply because it is good politics. Businesses that are still intact are shut down or heavily restricted for politics and many will not survive the economic strangulation imposed by the left.
Why? Why are they doing this?
Because months ago they told themselves that racial division, chaos, and misery was their path to the White House and political victory. We will make the nation miserable they said and they will get rid of the evil Orange Man.
We will empty the prisons and do away with cash bails for violent criminals.
It is sick. The nation should be outraged at what they have done in the name of politics and division.
Violence and vandalism democrat plan gone bad hell to pay when stupidity is used.
bump
There goal was to bring our system to its knees, starting in the cities, riding on the back of the COVID lockdown.
For all we know, this entire revolution is being orchestrated out of Beijing...with an invasion to follow at the right time.
The fact that Don Lemon and some others are saying it is causing problems tells us that they are not privy to The Plan. They think all this is somehow connected to Nov. 3rd (it might or might not be).
Long story, short. It ain't over yet so we all need to put the champagne back in the fridge.
Oh, so the rioting has to stop because it’s making the democrats look bad?
Not because it’s wrong.
But because it’s hurting them in the polls.
Disgusting......
As well they should because that IS the democrat party.
Yes, like Hemingway, he was naïve about Spain and the dynamics there.
One call to Soros is all it would take

Yeah,it all has to end NOW because focus groups say it isn't working for democrats.. These are sick people.
