They’re friends and fringe, CNN castoff Don Lemon and Tara Setmayer of The Lincoln Project, among other irrelevancies, are mad at the NFL. The twosome is upset that some teams decided to honor assassinated conservative leader Charlie Kirk at recent games. They both say most people don’t know who he is. If so, why are they even mad?
Have a listen. Warning: Lemon glitches out at the beginning of the video. (WATCH)
Don Lemon and guest Tara Setmayer are LIVID that some NFL teams offered moments of reflection and flags flew at half-staff for Charlie Kirk.

“A lot of people don't even know who the hell Charlie Kirk is!"

Mad about nothing.
One poster asks why Lemon is getting attention from online posters.
Why is Lemon getting any attention at all?

Why shouldn’t he?

Every hateful leftist media clown should be exposed and ridiculed.
He isn’t - no one with morals is listening or watching him

It’s all about highlighting who the Democrat Party is and what they believe. The public needs to see the party's depravity.
If Setmayer looks familiar, it's because she used to wear a conservative costume years ago.
I’m old enough to remember when @TaraSetmayer used to cosplay as a conservative for @glennbeck network back in the day. She’s always been a leftist

What happened with her? Raging TDS infection?

Lensman, I don't think so. I think it's nonsense. She's just playing along to a segment of the population that gets her attention. Probably, if you sat next to her at dinner, she would take the mask off and be normal.

By God! I remember that. You're right. This is purely performative for clicks. It's all new media stuff. Nice get.

She seems like a finger-to-the-wind type. But now that she’s immersed herself in the left, she’s stuck there.
Posters say the two are fuming because it’s dawning on them that in death, Kirk's popularity and reach are growing exponentially.
Leftist logic: → Murdered for being conservative? Ignore it. → Honored with flags at half-staff? Rage. → “Who even is Charlie Kirk?” They know exactly who he is. They just hate that he mattered.

They are so out of touch with America in their demonic bubble that they truly believe this. Even after the past week and the GLOBAL mourning for Charlie Kirk. They are beneath contempt.

Most people now know who Charlie Kirk was. And every day, more are learning about him and his message. No one is perfect, but he was special.

The Democrats are only now starting to grasp what their foot soldier did when he gunned down Kirk. They’ve created a movement that’s only going to grow as we approach the midterm elections and beyond. Instead of one Charlie Kirk, there's now an expanding army of him.
