Jane, who?

Aging lefty actress Jane Fonda struggled to draw a crowd as she railed against the arrest of Don Lemon Friday outside a Los Angeles courthouse.

The 88-year-old gathered with only a handful of sign-waving supporters for her full-throated defense of Lemon, who was charged for storming of a Minnesota church with a group of agitators.

“They’ll make up all kinds of defamatory things to say about him. That’s what they’re doing. This is how autocrats act. We can’t fall for it,” Fonda said.

“I know Don Lemon. My husband created CNN.”

She called on the tiny crowd to “speak up,” adding “they arrested the wrong Don” in an obvious reference to President Donald Trump.

“When a red line is crossed like this, we cannot be silent.”
