If we were to postulate a spectrum of human behavior, with "Consummate Class Act" on the right side and "Complete Hateful Sack-O-Crap" on the left, then we could safely place Melania Trump on the right end and Don Lemon on the left. Don Lemon has proved that he deserves the status on any number of occasions, but none are more childish and petulant than his recent eye-rolling, grimacing, disgraceful commentary on a video Mrs. Trump released raising questions about the recent assassination attempt on her husband.
On his multiple social media accounts this week, Lemon shared a video of himself making confused and frustrated faces in reaction to Melania Trump’s clip, during which she called the attempt on former President Trump's life on July 13 "horrible" and "distressing," and added that there is "more to the story." One of Trump's supporters, Corey Comperatore, was killed in the shooting.
X users blasted Lemon for mocking Melania sharing her views on her husband almost being assassinated, with one critic saying his comments were "sick."
Sick doesn't cover it. Consider the context here. This is a woman who saw her husband shot. She has, by the way, more class in the last joint in her left pinkie finger than Don Lemon has in his entire body, along with the bodies of his parents, his grandparents, and his first and maybe second cousins. Her husband, former President Donald Trump, escaped having his brains blown out by literally a whisker — and Don Lemon is mocking her for raising questions about the incident.
What a piece of drek.
In her video — put out ahead of the upcoming release of her memoir, "Melania" — the former first lady said, "The attempt to end my husband's life was a horrible, distressing experience. Now, the silence around it feels heavy. I can't help but wonder, why didn't law enforcement officials arrest the shooter before the speech?"
"There is definitely more to the story, and we need to uncover the truth," she added.
Shortly after the video was released, Lemon shared his own video with his reaction that was superimposed over the former first lady’s video.
As Melania's video played, Lemon was shown reacting to her comment, often by shaking his head, rolling his eyes, scratching his head and showing general bewilderment. When Trump’s clip concluded, the video zoomed in on an exasperated Lemon putting his head into his hand.
The YouTube version of Lemon’s clip featured some extra mockery for Trump’s clip, as it was captioned, "Why does it look like A.I?!?"
Aren't the left supposed to be the caring, compassionate, and tolerant people among us? Aren't they supposed to be the warm, empathic ones? It's funny how that never seems to be the case. Every time some childish, hateful outburst, some juvenile mockery, some disgusting display of callous disregard happens, it always seems to come from the left.

Lemon has now deleted the video from his several social media accounts, but as we all know, the internet is forever and always. Libs of TikTok have preserved Don Lemon's hateful stupidity for all to see.

Some of the replies were far more entertaining and empathic than Don Lemon ever has been.
Hey @donlemon, so can you have empathy for a human without considering politics for once in your life?

Why on EARTH did he feel the need to roll his eyes at someone describing an assass* nation attempt on their husband? I bet if that had of been K* mala that had happened to, he wouldn't be rolling his eyes at her husband speaking about it.

Don Lemon will never get over the fact that he will never measure up to Melania Trump. He’s jealous.

We already knew Don Lemon was a disgusting piece of work. This is another data point further proving that to be true.
