CNN’s Don Lemon had a meltdown on the air this week over the Democrats’ failure to pass their legislative agenda.
He slammed his desk and repeatedly accused Democrats of being weak.
Lemon also falsely implied that if Democrats don’t pass their agenda, that black people won’t be able to vote, which is absurd.

Don Lemon flips out on Democrats, slams desk during rant about ‘saving’ America: ‘Get your butts in gear!’
CNN host Don Lemon flipped out on Democrats Wednesday, slamming his fist on his desk as he ranted that they weren’t doing enough to sell their agenda to the American people and rescue democracy.
During the handoff between their respective shows, Lemon and fellow left-wing host Chris Cuomo agreed that Democrats had a messaging problem when it came to communicating their agenda, but Lemon took it a step further, becoming agitated as he called Democrats “weak” and accused them of not being passionate enough about “saving” America.
“Democrats get your butts in gear and get passionate about saving this damn country! You’re not doing it. You’re weak. You are weak. You are weak,” Lemon said as he beat his hand on his desk.
Lemon claimed the massive Democrat-backed multi-trillion dollar social spending package included items that Americans wanted but weren’t being advocated for in the right way…
“The only reason that I’m so enthusiastic about this is because our democracy is on the line and I don’t want America to lose its democracy. I don’t want America to be a country of minority rule and I don’t want America to be a place where Black and Brown people like me, whose ancestors fought and died for the right to vote, are restricted from going to the voting booth,” he added.

Lemon certainly seems deeply invested in political wins for the Democrats.
Why do you suppose that is?
