Meanwhile, on “The Breakfast Club,” Charlamagne Tha God named Michael the “Donkey of the Day” after news surfaced, according to The Shade Room. Charlamagne originally introduced the concept of “Donkey of the Day” as a humorous means to criticize people for their foolish or controversial actions.
Charlamagne emphasized the need for men to take care of their mental health while also pointing out the bizarre nature of the situation. He highlighted how trivial fights may snowball out of control when people are emotionally uncontrolled, particularly during a heatwave.
“It is a scientific fact that hot temperatures cause people to bug out. And, Michael Crowley is the latest example of that,” Charlamagne remarked. “Mental illness, unhealed trauma, the heat, and a honey bun. That led to Michael Crowley shooting and killing his uncle. I know, as a man, Michael Crowley had some other things going on in his life…and, Michael was just all the way fed up… The moral of the story is, a moment of anger can ruin a lifetime of peace.”
