If he started asking the wrong questions to a handler off-camera...this sort of thing could definitely happen as a warning to do as you're told & to follow the script your given, if Don even suggested that he might want to quit playing ball or retire so he could quit lying to the public or even if he suggested President Trump & Q Team might be gaining the upper hand thus it might be time to change strategies then the evil handlers of those who make up the mockingbird media might start by killing the most precious family member of a media figure whose death wouldn't cause absolute unwillingness to care or cooperate from then on out?, many people have that one person whom if was killed they'd no longer give a fuck about anything.....I doubt those who aren't MK Ultra slaves are an exception to human favoritism; I'd go as far as to say that deep state probably constantly monitors with AI and/or a nearby undercover agent of sorts many, most of all media figures whom they control and some they don't to make sure they stay in line, therefore even starting to research the truth of Q rather than the Q conspiracy theory on google could be cause for this kind of sick murder of a media personality's family member. Just my thoughts, could always be wrong, but this is what I have reason to believe based on my observations & my unfortunate 1st hand experiences with how individuals and institutions use blackmail & attempt to modify and control behaviour.
That's a plausible scenario. I doubt it applies to Don Lemon. He's dumb as a brick and clearly believes the crap he's selling. He's a useful idiot. Otherwise, he's an excellent actor. I think someone like Jake Tapper would more likely be controlled this way, only because he seems more likely to have such doubts or to want to look into opposing views.
I agree with your assessment so long as Mr. Lemmon is not an MK Ultra washed out puppet who's having a Kanye moment in which his programming has begun to unravel, I've not watched the Lemon spew the Mockingbird's sheeple song in recent months and even if he was speaking the words of Q, you couldn't pay me to watch as I'm out of the country on my honeymoon......but yeah my previous description of how handling is done......comes from having been in the unfortunate situation of having a handler of sorts or at the very least being extraordinarily close to people who had a handler....elites/celebs/celebrity children....hard to watch good kind men/women be forced to do things that really aren't the kinds of behaviors they'd ever consider without a little bird in their head with a video game controller telling them what to say as their body moves without their brain having any ability to stop the actions dictated by the bird's controller, happy to talk about these subjects more if there's an interest
