that politicians over age 75 should be subject to mandatory mental competency tests. President Joe Biden is 80 while another GOP presidential candidate, former President Donald Trump, is 76.
“Nikki Haley isn't in her prime, sorry,” Lemon said, explaining why he was “uncomfortable” with the age discussion. “When a woman is considered to be in her prime — in her 20s, 30s and maybe her 40s.”Lemon said that if you look it up on Google, a woman is considered to be in her prime at those ages.

Haley also retweeted other anti-Lemon comments from conservative politicians and media figures, and moved quickly to take political advantage. She emailed a fundraising appeal to supporters, decrying Lemon as a “CNN liberal,” including a link to the clip. “We must fight these liberal attacks,” Haley’s campaign wrote. “They hate conservative women the most.”Copyright 2023 The Associated Press.
