WASHINGTON (TNND) — Ex-CNN host Don Lemon, who purports himself to be an outspoken ally for the LGBTQ community, said that conservative commentator Megyn Kelly "looks trans."

In his new podcast "Clip Farmers," Lemon and his co-hosts were discussing the appearance of "MAGA women." One of Lemon's co-hosts asked Lemon if he thought Kelly was "chopped," which is slang for ugly.

I know Don Lemon looking for attention, but Don here is a trans.

Ex-CNN host Don Lemon, who purports himself to be an outspoken ally for the LGBTQ community, said that conservative commentator Megyn Kelly "looks trans."

This remarks makes Don Lemon "look stupid."

[OKSooner]

Well, cut the guy some slack.

Let Megyn have a week or so to practice a few moves with the right person, and get suited up in comfortable clothes appropriate for the occasion, and she might be a safe bet to whip Don Lemon's ass.

So that might be his way of reconciling the matter.

"Yeah she might whip my ass but she's really a dude. So there.")

[AppyPappy]

Is Don Lemon gay yet?

[dwg2]

Peter Puffer needs to keep his mouth shut.

[OKSooner]

You know that 0 told him to do that. Zhao would have never come up with it on his own except that someone told him, and possibly paid him to commit blasphemy in that way.

Even at the depths of Kelly’s ambition driven jihad against Donald Trump when I was totally disgusted with her behavior I had to admit she was smokin’ hot

[Vision]

Lemon is a reprobate freak loser and is wrong.

Kelly never should have gotten the nose job. She was really cute before. Women in general should never get nose jobs. Ex. Jennifer Gray.

[Tell It Right]

Don Lemon came out as gay years ago. That officially makes him seeing Megyn as competition. Women are always the worst critics of other women.

[pdunkin]

What a queer thing to say.

[T.B. Yoits]

So... a gay, black man uses "trans" as a slur against someone.

Only a leftist would have such lack of awareness of their own hatred toward others.

[catnipman]

Homosexual Don Lemon’s misogyny is showing again ...

His white husband is

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Lemon said this to get clicks. That is his entire business model because no one is watching him for his substantive content. Its pathetic.

[faucetman]

Megyn Kelly, especially her current “look” is beautiful. Don Lemon (gay) is not the best person to be judging a women’s appearance

If anyone looks Trans it’s Lemon

“chopped,” which is slang for ugly.”

A new one to me.

[T. Rustin Noone]

I thought it meant surgically enhanced.

[Dr. Sivana]

Soft features, genuine curves, woman-sized hands and feet, lovely legs, womanly leg to torso proportion. She is doing fine at 54, and no one would accuse her of being a fake.
