Don Lemon and Joy Reid seem to be in a sort of competition to see who can sound the least informed. Jason Whitlock, a host at BlazeTV, isn’t sure who’s ahead.
He remarked, “Men who resemble you, vote like you, and sound like you—something is off. Something is deeply cracking.” He emphasized this point, asking if people were listening.
Whitlock expressed that Lemon has always been hard to understand, to the point where it feels as if he plays into stereotypes that opponents use to make fun of him.
He also questioned whether people had seen statistics regarding violence among Black men, referencing high-profile cases like George Floyd and Trayvon Martin, further highlighting the real implications of these discussions.
But Lemon isn’t alone in making what many consider ridiculous statements; Reid also contributed her share.
She suggested that back in the 20th century, there weren’t income taxes or business regulations, implying a kind of financial freedom that raised eyebrows. Whitlock wondered aloud, “Is she talking about paradise?”
While the panel debated on who made the “dumber statement,” Wilfred Reilly leaned towards Reid, mentioning this tricky competition. He also highlighted troubling statistics around crime rates, pointing out the stark difference in murder rates between Black and white men, which he finds absurdly racist.
Another layer of his critique centered on Reid’s apparent misunderstanding of fascism, suggesting that it’s about collaboration between government and business, casting doubt on her financial assertions.
I guess at the end of the day, everyone’s trying to make their voices heard, whether that makes sense or not.
