Don Lemon Proposes New Democratic Party Leader: ‘People Love AOC!’
Newsbusters ^ | 03/17/2025 | David Milliken

Posted on 03/18/2025 5:10:15 AM PDT by DFG

During his appearance on Club Random With Bill Maher Sunday night, Don Lemon expressed the mind-boggling opinion that, following their defeat in the past election, what the Democratic Party needed by way of a little rejuvenation was Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY). Lemon claimed that people “love AOC,” and even went so far as to claim she would be a hit for the same reasons as President Trump. Eventually, Maher stepped in and brought him down to earth a bit.

After a lengthy and non-G-rated conversation on various subjects, Lemon offered his view on the Democratic leadership vacuum:

I love Nancy Pelosi… But I think that era of the Nancy Pelosi type… is over. I think that this is the era of… [a]nd I'm… not necessarily in love with their policies, but people love AOC… And I think that the Democratic Party should put the people out there who the people want… who they're asking for, who are meeting the moment with the same energy that-

Maher interrupted to sour Lemon’s optimism about AOC’s prospects as the Democratic Party’s leader:

MAHER: They're not asking for AOC.

LEMON: Yes, they are.

MAHER: The people you party with are.

LEMON: No, no, no. The people I party with don't like AOC.

MAHER: Oh, please

LEMON: No, they don't. At all.

MAHER: Well, most people don't.

LEMON: But AOC-

MAHER: Because she’s very far-left-

Lemon stuck to his story, though, and even asserted, “people will vote for AOC and Donald Trump on the same ticket. Because they're authentic.” To that, Maher just laughed outright. “No,” Lemon persisted, “because they’re authentic.”

CNN asked Dems in an open-ended question to name the best leader for them—and AOC just barely beat out Kamala, 10% to 9%.

A sure winner!

Lemon is repeating what AOC said she found when she asked people in her district, which re-elected her and also went for Trump this time. They told her they voted for her and for Trump, because they saw each as “authentic.” So she says, at any rate,

they could c9m ine with the flatearthers and be a political power house. Along with all those who believe in fairytale creatures who were born in the wrong body and / or have lusts for things God didn't make their parts to fit.

Just call it the "unholy party": and forget the cute names

This is when you know the left’s brainwashing and propaganda has worked a little too well on their sheeple. This is not exactly moving to the “center”.

Before everyone gets too cocky about AOC let me remind you that this country elected Burrack Hussein Obama, TWICE! With the right handlers, like Obama had, you never know.

Lemon hasn’t gotten that kind of pushback since he tried to go with fall color makeup at the Wal-Mart store. He really is a springtime man and should stick to pastels for eye shadow. AOC is a goof, and so is Lemon.
