Don Lemon just ignited a firestorm of controversy after claiming Megyn Kelly “looks trans.”
The former CNN host made the shocking statement during the Monday, October 27, episode of his “Clip Farmers” podcast.
Lemon criticized the right-wing media personality’s appearance after his co-hosts John Cotter and Chris Miglioranzi referred to Kelly as “chopped” toward the end of the episode.
After being informed by his co-hosts that the term meant “not hot,” Lemon agreed, stating: “Yeah, she’s chopped.”
Lemon didn’t stop there, however, as he went on to list various reasons he finds Kelly unattractive.
“It’s a lot of hair pieces and makeup and it’s, like, too, I don’t know, the whole MAGA look,” he snubbed.
Lemon further stereotyped all MAGA media personalities by claiming they are too skinny.
“Eat a f—— cheeseburger,” he declared.
The liberal journalist then shared his jaw-dropping comment about Kelly allegedly resembling a transgender woman.
“As they say, she looks clockable,” Lemon quipped.
This time, Lemon left his co-hosts confused as they misunderstood what he meant by “clockable” because Gen-Z has recently used the term “clock it” in response to someone stating facts about a topic.
After making his podcast partners Google the term, one of his co-hosts confirmed the word is used in “transgender slang” to describe someone “who can be recognized as transgender.”
