"You Think Charlie Kirk Was A Good Guy?" - Don Lemon DEFENDS Celebrations Of Charlie Kirk’s Murder

[00:00] talking about embarrassing. So imagine

[00:02] if you're in the streets

[00:04] >> going and talking to people hoping they

[00:06] say bad things about Charlie Kirk and

[00:08] Trump and then this is what happens. Go

[00:10] ahead, Rob

[00:11] >> Kirk.

[00:14] >> It's just messed up. Totally messed up.

[00:16] You know that was messed up. Like nobody

[00:17] deserved that. He definitely didn't

[00:19] deserve that. He was a good guy.

[00:21] >> You think he was a good guy?

[00:22] >> I think he was scumb.

[00:25] >> The what?

[00:26] >> The only Kirks you recognize is Captain

[00:27] Kirk. I don't know Charlie Kirk. I don't

[00:28] know who he I don't know who it is.

[00:29] >> I don't know what that is.

[00:30] >> I know who it was.

[00:31] >> That joke felt flawed. I

[00:32] >> you know

[00:32] >> I only know about him.

[00:33] >> All of us all of us have flaws. You

[00:35] can't I can't really tell you what to

[00:37] believe in or how to feel like

[00:39] everybody's having a human experience.

[00:40] Like why knock him for having this human

[00:42] experience or what he believe in?

[00:44] >> Even though this believe what he even

[00:46] though he says things that are

[00:47] anti-women, black, all that's judge him

[00:50] for that.

[00:50] >> You can't.

[00:51] >> I can't judge him for that. But I can

[00:53] use judgment. He didn't deserve that.

[00:56] >> As a human being, you are very

[00:58] spiritual. Yeah. And you're not going I

[01:01] didn't go left with that.

[01:02] >> No, you sound like You mean left go, not

[01:04] left.

[01:05] >> I'm humanity. I'm humanity and love

[01:07] first, you know.

[01:07] >> No, I love that. So, the first person I

[01:09] spoke to here didn't want to be on

[01:10] camera and he said, "I can't judge him

[01:12] because I'm not God." And so, let him,

[01:14] you know, let the whatever the reaction

[01:16] is that the government wants to stop

[01:19] that, Rob, can you go?

[01:20] >> Wasn't he the weatherman on CNN or

[01:22] something? I don't recognize him.

[01:23] >> Can you go to the other clip that the

[01:25] pastor he retweeted? So, here's a pastor

[01:27] that Don Lemon retweeted. This pastor, I

[01:29] don't know who this pastor is, by the

[01:30] way. What's his name? Pastor Howard John

[01:33] Wesley defaming Charlie Kirk.

[01:35] >> Church.

[01:38] >> Charlie Kirk did not deserve to be

[01:40] assassinated.

[01:43] But I'm overwhelmed

[01:46] seeing the flags of the United States of

[01:48] America

[01:50] >> at half staff. They were for 911

[01:53] >> calling this nation to honor and

[01:56] venerate a man who was an unapologetic

[02:00] racist and spent all of his life sewing

[02:04] seeds of division and hate into this

[02:07] land.

[02:08] >> This is in church, mind you. Come on.

[02:11] >> Look at the applause.

[02:14] and hearing people with selective rage

[02:20] who were mad about Charlie Kirk but

[02:22] didn't give a damn about Melissa Hortman

[02:24] and her husband when they were shot down

[02:26] in their home.

[02:28] >> Nobody knows who those people are.

[02:29] >> Tell me I ought to have compassion for

[02:32] the death of a man who had no respect

[02:34] for my own life.

[02:37] >> We can pause.

[02:38] >> You think you that question. Do you

[02:39] think God is happy that you're doing

[02:41] this or the devil is happy that you're

[02:43] in church and having an applause break

[02:47] for people that are basically like,

[02:49] "Well, it is what?" Like, let's not

[02:50] sugarcoat it. They're c they're clapping

[02:52] and they're like, "Yeah, he's right. Who

[02:54] cares that he's dead?" And by the way,

[02:56] the flag was half mass cuz it was

[02:58] September 11th. Reverend, father,

[03:01] whatever you're calling yourself. What a

[03:03] disgusting display from from Don Lamonte

[03:07] >> from the pulpit. from the pulpit and

[03:09] they're celebrating a racist and

[03:12] >> and you just posted something right now

[03:13] from Colin Rug about Don Lemon not happy

[03:15] about the fact that people on the

[03:16] conservative side Rob can you

[03:18] >> can you I put in the chat it's in the

[03:20] chat he fumes that the right is being

[03:22] mean and irrational to liberals who are

[03:25] celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk he

[03:27] says uh calling Kirk hurtful

[03:30] discriminatory and ignorant this is

[03:32] >> you know what's worse than hurtful dead

[03:37] >> my feelings are hurt. The guy's dead.

[03:39] >> Yeah. Period. In front of his family.

[03:41] >> Go ahead, Rob.

[03:42] >> It's a longer clip, but

[03:44] >> you know, this is sort of a two

[03:45] different universes, two different

[03:47] worlds

[03:49] that we live in here in America. And I'm

[03:52] generalizing because there are some

[03:54] folks, you know, there's some in every

[03:56] bunch. There are some who are uh black

[03:58] folks who are like, "Yeah, you know, I

[03:59] loved him or whatever." Okay, fine. But

[04:00] those are few and far between. Let's

[04:02] just be honest. And

[04:03] >> so for the most part, people don't

[04:05] understand like what is this all of this

[04:07] flags that have staff for

[04:09] >> 911 idiot.

[04:10] >> They had no most people had no idea who

[04:12] Charlie Kirk was.

[04:13] >> Most people what a liar.

[04:14] >> You know that right?

[04:16] >> I mean a lot of people out there and you

[04:17] see my lives are like I didn't really

[04:19] know him. I just heard about him when

[04:21] this happened because it was mostly for

[04:23] like younger people who are really

[04:25] politically activated like college

[04:28] people who are you know just wanted to

[04:30] you know college people like to fight on

[04:31] campus

[04:32] >> misrepresentation

[04:32] >> and when I went to school at LSU we had

[04:34] something very similar and it was called

[04:36] free speech alley. I think free speech

[04:38] alley is still there where you could go

[04:39] to free speech alley and you could say

[04:41] whatever you want. The the thing is is

[04:44] that you could then and you would not

[04:46] get suspended or expelled or, you know,

[04:50] um disciplined for saying some

[04:53] People just said whatever it is that

[04:55] they wanted at Free Speech Alley. Much

[04:57] of it was offensive, but I kind of liked

[05:01] Free Speech alley.

[05:03] But we that's not the America that we're

[05:05] living in right now. We live in an

[05:06] America of cancel culture. And it is the

[05:09] cancel culture on the right now. What

[05:12] the hell is he talking about?

[05:13] >> That is leading the charge,

[05:14] >> dude. Look at the like

[05:15] >> and the hypocrisy. I've been writing

[05:17] something about this. The hypocrisy on

[05:20] the right about free speech is I mean

[05:22] it's just it's off the charts cuz think

[05:24] about it. If you actually believed

[05:27] in what Charlie Kirk said he believed

[05:29] in, didn't quite practice all the time

[05:32] is free speech,

[05:34] then why are you out to cancel people

[05:38] who are using their first amendment

[05:41] right of free speech to tell you how

[05:45] they feel about Charlie Kirk by using

[05:48] his own words?

[05:51] >> Can I say Can I say one thing, Pat? Do

[05:52] you guys understand something?

[05:54] Don Le Man, all these leftists when Elon

[05:57] Musk says that the party of murder el

[05:59] this guy is one of the left lefties and

[06:02] he could just walk around in the

[06:04] streets. Nobody does anything to him.

[06:06] Nobody's killing him. Nobody's saying

[06:09] anything. He gets to walk up to

[06:10] everybody. When he goes up to people

[06:11] that don't agree with him, they're like,

[06:13] "No, I know who you are. You're the CNN

[06:15] guy." And it's all love. They shake his

[06:16] hand and they leave. You know why nobody

[06:18] does nothing? Because you're that side.

[06:20] You're on that side that is the evil

[06:23] side. This is that negative. I I I don't

[06:26] even think that these people understand

[06:27] that their souls have been captured. I I

[06:29] I truly don't. But like we said, Tom,

[06:31] AOC, every single person that has spit

[06:34] this vial from Walts to everybody,

[06:36] notice how you could walk around, nobody

[06:38] bothers you, nobody assaults you, nobody

[06:42] shoots you. It's your side doing it to

[06:45] the other side. And this is the type of

[06:47] stuff this like unbelievable.

[06:49] Unbelievable, Tom.

[06:50] >> Yeah. You know, it's they we took their

[06:52] blankie as they say, right? They are

[06:54] like, "Oh, we get to have free speech.

[06:56] We get to say what we want. We get to

[06:57] say about conservatives." And when

[06:59] there's any balance or there's any truth

[07:00] that comes out, all of a sudden it's,

[07:02] "Oh my gosh, how could how dare you?"

[07:04] >> Yeah. How dare you? And then the bullets

[07:06] start flying.

[07:06] >> Well, it just proves my point that I

[07:08] always say that the most watered down,

[07:09] least powerful word at this point is

[07:11] racist. You know, Charlie Kirk is

[07:13] racist. Okay, buddy. Uh his isn't his

[07:16] best friend, Officer Tatum. Isn't that

[07:18] And then he just parade uh didn't he

[07:20] help uh catapult Candace Owens to

[07:23] stardom? Didn't he help basically start

[07:25] Blexit? Wasn't that part of Turning

[07:27] Point USA? Wasn't he somebody that would

[07:29] talk to literally anybody and encourage

[07:32] free speech? You know, people have had

[07:34] enough. They've awoken a sleeping giant.

[07:37] And we've seen it uh in the UK this week

[07:39] with uh Tommy Robinson's event. We've

[07:42] seen the visuals and the memorials all

[07:44] around the world in the UK and Australia

[07:47] and France and Germany and Israel and

[07:49] Italy and Hungary and Spain all paying

[07:53] respect to Charlie Kirk. Do you want to

[07:56] you want to factor that in? Why did 90

[07:58] plus% of NFL teams take a moment of

[08:00] silence for Charlie Kirk? The five that

[08:02] didn't, you have some explaining to do.

[08:04] So, uh, in America today, uh, there's

[08:07] one flag that reigns supreme. It's the

[08:09] American flag. It's not your BLM flag.

[08:12] It's not your Palestine flag. It's not

[08:14] your LGBT woke trans flag. All these

[08:17] people on the left, the Don Lemon crew,

[08:20] they're raising every single flag other

[08:22] than the American flag. Charlie stood

[08:23] for one flag and that was the American

[08:25] flag. And they hate him for it.

[08:27] >> Yeah, they're disgusting.

[08:28] >> And and by the way, you know, to be

[08:30] fair, uh cancel culture can happen on

[08:32] both sides. like for us if if you think

[08:35] about uh uh what what I'm saying right

[08:38] now when when you go back and look at

[08:40] the federalist paper that was written by

[08:42] uh I think 60% is written by Hamilton if

[08:45] I'm not mistaken on the federalist paper

[08:47] and one of the things he talked about he

[08:49] he says the the one thing that they

[08:51] realized where they went from a monarchy

[08:54] uh uh uh uh Tom correct me on any of the

[08:56] stuff that I'm saying here after they

[08:57] went from a monarchy where a guy is

[08:59] saying I need you to do this I need you

[09:01] to pay for everything monarchy right So

[09:03] you have the imperialism monarchy to

[09:05] then a democracy which is what? Well,

[09:07] let's see what everybody wants to do.

[09:08] Okay. No, we need you to pay for it,

[09:10] Rob, cuz you're the rich guy. So

[09:12] democracy, the individual wasn't

[09:14] protected. And then you go to the

[09:15] republic, it's like, wait a minute,

[09:16] guys. Hey, I'm going to work harder. Can

[09:17] I be protected?

[09:19] And the leak that they found in

[09:21] democracies

[09:23] was man's uh uh ambition and what

[09:27] happens when they get power. the more

[09:29] and more they they studied history and

[09:31] they give the examples in the Federalist

[09:33] paper is the fact that you keep seeing

[09:36] examples of people not knowing how to

[09:38] manage power. The moment they get it,

[09:40] they want to control.

[09:41] >> Yep.

[09:41] >> And this isn't a left thing.

[09:43] >> Just just just so you let you know this

[09:45] is a left right center thing. If a man

[09:48] this is why Marcus Aurelius was loved as

[09:50] much as he he was because he was a he

[09:53] was a great leader. If you've never read

[09:55] the book Meditations, do yourself a

[09:56] favor and just go to Amazon and or buy

[09:58] the book Meditations and and there's one

[10:00] of the ones that I like the the version

[10:02] that I like the most. Rob, if you can go

[10:04] there, I'll give it to you right now. Go

[10:05] to Amazon meditations and I'll tell you

[10:07] which one to pick up because there's a

[10:08] bunch of them. The the best one is it's

[10:11] Gary. Gary uh uh can you go to it? I'll

[10:13] tell you which one it is. Uh what's the

[10:15] name on that one? The first guy that

[10:16] wrote it right there. Gregory Hayes.

[10:18] That's the best one. So, buy the one

[10:19] from Gregory Hayes Meditations. That's

[10:21] the best translation out of all of them.

[10:23] There's good ones, but that's the best

[10:24] one in my opinion. You have to know

[10:26] that's what happens. This is why a man

[10:28] of character that leads, you can trust

[10:31] what they're going to be doing for the

[10:32] most part, right? So, for me, the one

[10:35] thing I respect about Don Lemon the

[10:37] most, I would actually have a

[10:38] conversation with Don Lemon, but you

[10:40] know what's the one thing I respect

[10:41] about Don Lemon that we have to give him

[10:42] credit for? He actually plays the clips

[10:45] that make him look bad.

[10:46] >> He shows his Well, he has a lot of them.

[10:47] That's the majority of his clips.

[10:48] >> But, but what I'm Let me tell you

[10:50] though, you laugh at it. You ever seen

[10:51] the clip?

[10:52] >> I'm not laughing. I'm telling

[10:52] >> Dwayne of Dwayne Wade sitting in Sports

[10:55] Center telling the guy to make the

[10:57] highlight better as if he jumps higher.

[10:59] I don't know if you remember that

[11:00] commercial from 15 years ago. Dwayne

[11:02] said, "No, no, make me seem like bigger.

[11:04] Make me seem like I jumped higher."

[11:06] >> Damon just puts the clips up and it

[11:08] makes him look horrible and he still

[11:10] does it. You got to respect him for

[11:11] >> it. Shows his losses, not his wins and

[11:14] his losses.

[11:14] >> Listen guys, who just lost this last

[11:16] Saturday? Canelo.

[11:19] >> Wow.

[11:19] >> What happened there, by the way?

[11:21] >> I couldn't believe it. Are you flipping?

[11:22] And by the way, you know what was the

[11:24] most beautiful thing? You know, cocky

[11:26] with your predictions, confident with

[11:28] your preparation, humble in victory or

[11:30] loss.

[11:30] >> Canelo showed humble humility and

[11:33] victory or loss.

[11:34] >> He gave the man so much credit when they

[11:38] asked him who's stronger, Mayweather or

[11:39] Crawford.

[11:40] >> Yeah, he said Crawford.

[11:41] >> He said Crawford.

[11:42] >> He said Crawford's better than

[11:42] Mayweather.

[11:43] >> Crawford's better than Mayweather. And

[11:44] so anyways, uh uh it is what it is,

[11:47] gang. Once again, before we wrap up,

[11:49] 100% of proceeds, gross revenue of

[11:53] whatever you buy with USA, I'm getting

[11:55] text messages with some of these things

[11:56] are about to be done. Anything you

[11:58] purchase with USA, if you're proud

[12:00] American, if you love Charlie, whatever

[12:02] you put here, not the profits, not the

[12:04] gross profits, 100% of the revenue from

[12:06] here is going to go to Turning Point USA

[12:10] and uh we'll donate to them. And I

[12:12] expect us to be doing more of these

[12:14] things moving forward to represent uh

[12:16] them, him, his family, what he's done

[12:18] over the years. If you enjoy this video,
