Don Lemon beefs on Patel’s Olympic victory celebration for being ‘tacky’

Don Lemon is back, and he’s complaining about FBI Director Kash Patel’s Olympic victory celebration.

Heaven forbid anyone other than Lemon drink and be merry on camera (don’t think we forgot about those cringe CNN New Year’s Eve broadcasts.) Apparently, Lemon is upset with Patel attending the Team USA celebration, as the guys took pride in their victory over Canada. The director was filmed chugging a beer and cheering with the team, which set off the very sensitive media.

Lemon shared his opinion on the matter:

Don Lemon on Kash Patel: “Why are you even there? On taxpayer dollars, on the plane. This administration is so tacky. You people have no class, it’s just gross. You’re trashy, it’s disgusting.“ pic.twitter.com/ezGWFzaDuT

“Specifically, I’m talking about Kash Patel, who’s over in Italy partying with the hockey players who won, and they’re celebrating. You’re the head of the FBI, dude. Why are you even there?” Lemon sneered into the camera. “Most likely on taxpayer dollars – yes, of course on taxpayer dollars, on the plane, which he has been in trouble for. Which he has been scrutinized for!”

“This administration is so tacky. I know that, [President] Donald Trump, they say that he’s a wealthy man or whatever, he’s made a billion off of the presidency, but him too. His name is on everything, including the plane, all the gold s**t, how tacky the White House looks, and the Oval Office with all the gold s**t. You people have no class, it’s just gross. And the sad thing is we are paying for it as tax dollars, and you have the nerve to talk about people? You’re trashy, it’s disgusting,” he whined. “And the sad irony, I guess you could call it irony, is that we are paying for these low-class… You come up with a word for it. Kash Patel, just take some pictures, go over there, take some pictures, and pay for it yourself. Just have some class. Ugh.”

X users had a lot to say about this:

Now do the over 50 politicians and heads of states that attended the olympics to show support for their national teams.

Lemon got cut from the middle school kickball team and is full of resentment.
