Fox News ^ | February 18, 2023 | Gabriel Hays

Critics of CNN anchor Don Lemon called for the network to fire him after his controversial comments demeaning 2024 GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley.

Amidst the furor over Lemon’s statements this week about Haley not being in her "prime" while running for president, Twitter users claimed that this might be the time to finally axe the "CNN This Morning" host.

I’m sure there’s a place for him or her at MSNBC with the other loons.

MSNBC? Isn't that the acronym for Mental Subjects Now Being Confined?

CNN ought to fire him. But I want him to stay on and chase away more viewers. CNN delenda est.

I agree. He should continue showing the few CNN viewers just how un-woke the woke really are.

If he keeps making offensive jokes CNN might actually get some ratings.

True that!

The Trans Card is apparently the trump card of the moment in the lefties’ Great Victim Card Game. Lesbian is roughly equivalent to a king, gay male a queen, POC a jack, etc. So Mr. Lemon is holding a queen and a jack, while his opponents hold straights in the feminism and ageism suits. Hmm. Who will win? Will Lemon have to develop Sudden Trans Syndrome to keep his chair and stay in the Game?

Time will tell, I guess.

I'm no fan of Nikki Haley. But in 2023, it was a shockingly stupid remark, especially given that we have an obviously impaired 80-year-old president whom the MSM gives tongue baths to every day. Lemon's only possible reason for saying that is that she is a woman.

I'm still reeling from the unhinged hatred expressed towards Sarah Palin, which many Republicans just couldn't imagine was pure sexism. Sad that it is even still alive and well in Democrat precincts. They are the party of hatred and contempt.

It was a dumb comment but he shouldn’t lose his job over it.

It was an outrageously dumb remark with no logic, as if Wolf Blitzer had said something like "He's a good ball player, but he isn't white."

I too have noticed that women over 40 are "friendlier" than those under 40.

Benjamin Franklin said much the same thing. The word he used was "grateful."

Black and gay versus the Feminazis!

This was not just about sex; it was also ageism. A woman over 40 has no viability, in his estimation, as if a female politician should be discarded like a sexy but no-talent movie starlet once she hits 35. Has he never heard of Nancy Pelosi?

IT ain’t “Her Prime” I am concerned about:

SHE IS NOT NATURAL BORN CITIZEN-—Therefore—NOT ELIGIBLE

If that illegal alien Nimrata Randhawa can manage to get Lemon “cancelled”, she will at least have done some slight good ...

What he said was said was silly, but so what? In some ways, he’s right, as women have different stages in their lives. Let him say stupid things. We all have a right to do that. It’s not termination worthy.

What bothers me is that we never heard any lib say that PIAPS was past her prime when she was running for President. And Kamala is seven years older than Haley, and I don’t think Don LeMOAN mentioned that.

The treatment of Sarah Palin was reprehensible and I learned a lot from it.
