Earlier this week, we reported that former CNN host Don Lemon had launched his media comeback after announcing that he would be getting his own show on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Now, former Fox News host Megyn Kelly is responding by revealing why she “doesn't support” Lemon's success in the endeavor.
Kelly Torches Lemon
“I'm not rooting for it,” Kelly said candidly on Thursday's episode of her eponymous SiriusXM show. “Our old friend Don Lemon has resurfaced, or is about to resurface. And I realize it's a noble move to say, 'Good for Don.' He's been canceled from CNN, and now he's reinventing himself on X.” '
“Well, that's not what I'm saying!” I continued. “I think he's disgusting. He hates America, he hates Republicans, and I'm not looking forward to his voice again other than making fun of him, which I plan to do 100%.”
He didn't stop there, but Kelly proceeded to double down.
“I just have a little reminder for you who Don Lemon is and why we can't stand him!” Kelly shouted before showing a clip of some of his worst moments on CNN, where he ranted about topics like Donald Trump and anti-Covid-19 naysayers.

“He showed us who he was – believe him.”
“He went off the air for two minutes, and now people are saying, ‘Oh, maybe he saw the light,’” Kelly said. “You know, maybe he'll come back more fair and balanced.” Of course. Sure, Jan! I mean, bulls-t-r. He showed us who he is. Believe him.”
“This is not someone I'm rooting for,” she added. “I'm not saying he shouldn't be allowed to speak again. I'm just saying that I don't have to personally encourage him, or think it's a good thing, or recognize that this is an important voice in the conversation, and I congratulate Elon.” [Musk] To enable him to return.”
“He's a prick and he hates Republicans…and it shows that it's not just a partisan thing…Don Lemon really Dislikes The right half of the country. Hate,” Kelly concluded. “And I would love to see almost all of them have canceled their votes for Trump. So no, I'm not rooting for him in any way, shape or form.
