Don Lemon is under fire for attacking conservative media personality Megyn Kelly by using ‘trans’ as an insult.
During a recent episode of his “Clip Farmers” podcast, he and his co-hosts, in a segment that looks like a frat-house reject reunion, discussed the appearance of “MAGA ladies” and began attacking conservative women for their looks rather than their character and substance.
Lemon’s co-host John Cotter asked, “Is Megyn Kelly ‘chopped’?”
Lemon replied, “I don’t know what that means. I’ve heard it, but I don’t know what that means. What does ‘chopped’ mean?”
Cotter answered, “She’s gonna get mad at me, dude, I don’t know if I want this heat.”
Lemon asked again, “What does ‘chopped’ mean?”
Cotter responded, “‘Chopped’ means not hot.”
Lemon answered with a cruel smirk, “Yeah. She’s chopped,” after which the three men cackled over insulting women for their looks.
Lemon continued, “I don’t know, the whole ‘MAGA’ look….”
Co-host Chris Miglioranzi gleefully joined the attack on conservative women, adding, “It’s all the MAGA ladies!”
“It’s too much,” Lemon added.
Cotter continued, “Kinda looks like a Barbie doll covered in WD40.”
And then Lemon dropped a very un-PC, and arguably transphobic, insult, “I think she looks trans.”
After an awkward moment that left his two co-hosts in stunned silence, Cotter said quickly, “Let’s end on that note.”
Lemon, instead, doubled down, adding, “I think she looks clockable.”
‘Clockable,’ when referring to a trans person, means that someone can “clock” (recognize or identify) their biological sex rather than the gender they present.
