Don Lemon’s Latest Show Goes Horribly Wrong As Voters Rip Kamala
In Atlantic City, New Jersey, Don Lemon’s attempt to showcase support for the Biden administration backfired dramatically. The former CNN anchor, who now hosts “The Don Lemon Show,” faced a tough crowd during his recent segment where not a single person expressed their enthusiasm for Vice President Kamala Harris.
The clip on X featured Lemon asking passersby in Atlantic City, “Who do you support?” The responses were overwhelmingly in favor of former President Donald Trump, with one person plainly stating, “Trump,” and another confidently adding, “Trump for the win.”
When pressed by Lemon on their views about Harris potentially leading the country, one interviewee skeptically remarked, “She’s good as vice, but not for the actual lead role for the country.” This sentiment was echoed by others who questioned her experience and suitability for the presidency.
Lemon, in an attempt to defend President Biden’s economic policies, argued with a local who claimed to have been better off financially four years ago. “I know you feel that way, but that’s not actually what the record shows. The economy is actually better under Biden. No, I’m serious,” Lemon insisted, only to be met with skepticism and dismissive replies from the couple.
WATCH:
One particularly telling exchange involved Lemon querying if public hesitation towards Harris was due to her being a woman, to which the unanimous response was a firm “No.”
“I support Trump,” said on of the interviewees. “All the people that came to this country legally, it’s not fair that they’re letting all 10,000 to 15,000 people, 20,000 people here illegally. Have you seen San Diego? They’re coming off the boats, off the water right here, off the ocean.”
As the segment concluded, a frustrated Lemon remarked on the need to leave Atlantic City, humorously adding, “I gotta get out of Atlantic City. Where we going to next?”
REACTIONS:
Imagine how stupid you have to be to tell people in this economy, when people can't afford basic necessities let alone to buy a house, that the economy is better now than four years ago.

This didn’t go as planned for Don. At least he showed the truth. In NJ no less. One silly Canadian and all Trump.

“The statistics say you’re wrong about your personal finances” is a hell of a way to converse with people, Don.

I live in New Jersey
I don’t know a single person that is voting for Harris.
Even my Democrat neighbors that voted for Biden are going to vote for Trump— TheBitchIsBack😋 (@hotnostril) August 17, 2024
