John Kasich to Don Lemon: Some Trump Supporters Might Still Be Redeemable
MenRec ^ | 01/29/21 | Rusty

Former Ohio governor John Kasich, in an interview with CNN anchor Don Lemon, suggested some Trump supporters “are redeemable.”

Kasich (R), who unsuccessfully ran against former President Trump in 2016 and endorsed Joe Biden in 2020, suggested to Lemon that supporters must confess their sins before being welcomed back into the fold.

In other words, confess that the Capitol riots were as bad as the media portrays and the whole event is all Trump’s fault.

“Honestly, Don, what we have to ask ourselves are, who’s redeemable?” he said. “Who we bring over to say this is — this is just wrong. This never happened this way.”

“And we’ve got to figure out how to talk to some of those people and reach them, Don, and get them back.”

“Some of them are redeemable. I can tell you they are. And you know that some of them are, don’t you?” Kasich continued. “You’ve met them. They’ve gone up to you and said, ‘Lemon, you’re right.'”

...

For his part, Lemon wasn’t buying the notion that some Trump supporters are redeemable, as John Kasich suggests.

“How do you reason with unreasonable people?” he asked.

“No matter how many times you show them video of Trump supporters and people – hundreds – 150 or so, or close to it, who have been arrested from the Capitol … that is not living in reality,” Lemon added.

“Why would you even want to reason with those people?”

‘Not living in reality’ is Lemon, who is super-despondent over what happened at the Capitol but denied the reality of leftist-led race riots over the summer.

Lemon suggested rioters setting cities ablaze in the name of racial justice were comparable to American revolutionaries.

"What about the sodomite Don Lemon; is he redeemable?"

You will have to check the label. He might be redeemable for a nickel in California. But only from the store he came from.

Where and how did this doofus get the attitude that he’s so special or important? It’s a personality flaw or something. He’s a dork but has such a high opinion of himself.

The Demonrats are not redeemable.
They are so psychologically disturbed that they see Trump supporters as the ENEMY and the CCP is their friend.

He’s hoping that enough people go to back to sleep so people the likes of him can go back to their cushy gigs in Washington.

Not me, swamp boy.

Some, John? Only some? Are the rest to be confined to the reeducation camps?

You, John, are an irredeemable a$$. You want 74 million Trump voters to confess their sins,
the sins being their votes for a Constitutionally valid candidate for the POTUS? Your proclamations
reveal you to be a Marxist plant, a shill for those advocating the New Holocaust.

They will keep pushing and pushing until somebody on our side starts acting like the DEMONcRAT Nutcase who shot Steve Scalise.

Then they will have their excuse to declare Martial Law and start imprisoning the perceived Opposition.

I’ve said for years that there isn’t a DEMONcRAT alive who wouldn’t relish helping load us Irredeemable Deplorables into the Railcars destined for the Camps if they could get away with it.

It’s transparent as glass that the current Regime would let them get away with it. Don’t doubt me.

Don’t believe kasich wants conservative’s approval.
Thought he was one us in the past. Then became a creature in the DC swamp; Potomic two step. Now he needs a job, cuz no one now in conservative circles want his help except for his Rinos at the Lincoln loggers project.

The GOP has one and only one opportunity to get my vote. they can prevent the gun control abomination from passing. If they fail at this, I’m not voting for them anymore. I’m gonna enjoy watching them implode.

Arrogance is one thing. Hopeless stupidity and delusion is what is really apparent with Kasich.
