Don Lemon continues to be slammed after his comments that 2024 Republican Presidential hopeful Nikki Haley “is past her prime”, with OutKick’s Tomi Lahren joining the fray.
During her Fox News Commentary, Lahren had harsh criticism for the CNN This Morning host, calling his comments “blatant sexism, ageism, and completely tone-deaf.”
Lahren added that the criticism would be levied even harder against a conservative political voice if the same comments were made.
“Can ya’ll imagine if a conservative male anchor said this of Kamala Harris? Or any female for that matter?” questioned Lahren.
The conservative pundit then called Lemon’s apology “half-baked” before adding “You put your foot in your mouth and offended pretty much every woman in America, but we don’t worry. We won’t cancel you.”
Lemon hasn’t returned to CNN This Morning since his comments last Thursday. He had a scheduled vacation day on Friday but was reportedly “benched” for Monday’s show. However, CNN has pushed back on that insinuation, claiming Lemon was simply off on Monday due to President’s Day.
