The word of the day for me is attack. Well, two, and there's alliteration. Arrest and attack, they're just, well, A's. Arrest and attacks. Attacks and arrests. Attacks and arrests. Attacks on people who are in this Nolan Wells case, whether it be the family of the teenagers who were there, whether it be the Wells, Wansley family, and people in the community, just all kinds of attacks, right?
Don Lemon 1:09
I'm not talking about people talking shit about each other and that kind of thing. I'm talking about attacks that have to go to the police. So good morning, everybody. Thank you so much for being here. And the other attack that I'm... Like and thumbs up for a sort of business for a sort of business. The other attack is that I'm watching on, I've been watching the, I'm in a hotel, so I've been watching the cable news is on. You flip it on, it comes right on. Wow, they are attacking Abdul Saeed. Like, I mean, calling him all, everything but a child of God. I don't know if you guys have seen that. Calling him everything but a child of God. He is a socialist. He is a communist. He is scary. He's going to steal Christmas.
Don Lemon 1:55
He doesn't care about all kinds of things. It's crazy. And my interactions with him, he's a nice enough guy. We haven't been following the elections like we would have been if it were not for this Nolan Wells case. But he certainly has been on the show. He's been on the show for No Kings. We've done interviews with him. He is a nice enough man. so welcome in everybody welcome to baltimore let me know where you're streaming from a total smear campaign says step in i agree hello arkansas welcome good morning to all how are you doing elimination let me see you're not surprised abdul terrifies them joyce and also it's a record-setting vote total yeah good morning from rosenberg texas hello to everybody so
Don Lemon 2:40
I want to start by talking about something that has, look, these folks have every right to be able to hire who they want to represent them if they're getting a tax. But just as the young men going on to this far right wing podcaster who appears by all means or by most folks to be anti-black, even though he's a black person. Choosing to do an interview there. And then who these folks who are aligning themselves with. Well, check out this story. And this is from TMZ. I don't know if there's a report that we have on it other than TMZ, but this is what it is. It says, lawyer, Nolan Wells friends, lawyer up with attorney who repped Trump. Now, like I said, they have every right to do what they want. But if you're, this is not, this story, what they're fighting for, really, if they have nothing to do with it, right, they're fighting in the court of public opinion.
Don Lemon 3:47
They have been, they hired this lawyer, I would imagine, because of the attacks that have happened on him, meaning possible defamation or slander for some of the folks who have been saying things like emphatically that they had something to do with it. Okay, every right to. but who you hire also people is a reflection of you. And that's at least that's what people are gonna think. And so, and if you look at the public sentiment on this, Most people will say, oh, they're hiring Trump's lawyer or a former Trump lawyer. Now, I think this is a lawyer who represented Donald Trump against the New York Times and other news outlets. So I would imagine this would be for defamation, slander, and that kind of thing.
Don Lemon 4:43
Most of the folks are saying, well, that doesn't bode well for them. That doesn't sound good. Sounds like they're aligning with MAGA. And by the way, I mean, producers check this, but Donald Trump lost against the New York Times, I believe. And I believe he lost against the Washington Post or the Wall Street Journal, but check me on that.
