Come on, you guys have to love that music. I know you love it. I know you love it. I know you love it. It gets you going, right? It's the Lemon music, the Don Lemon Show music. Maybe we should have different music. Should we have different music for the Hot Topics and the Live at Five? Anyway, hello, good morning. Where are you guys streaming from this morning? Lemonheads, where are you streaming from this morning? I am in New York City. I'm in my apartment. I have to go to Washington, D.C. today. We're going to Washington, D.C. today. We're going to, I can't tell you where we're going. I'm going to do a panel, and I'm going to do work, and I'm going to show up somewhere that people are going to be surprised where we are.
Don from Atlanta. Hi, good morning, Atlanta. Let's see. Oxford, England. No way. You're kidding me. Oxford, England? California's in the house. Boston, Detroit, Michigan. Jackson, Michigan. Holy schmoly, Ohio, Georgia. This chat is going to Tennessee. Will is in Tennessee. Florence, Italy says, are you serious? Can you tell all your folks in Florence, North Carolina, Baltimore, tell everybody to tune in to The Lemon Nation. So I'm so glad that you guys are here. You guys are all up early. Chicago's here, Wisconsin, Chattanooga, Tennessee, up on the screen on the YT. You guys know what I mean when I say YT. Ends with two. Starts with a Y. Brooklyn. You got to be careful what you say because the algorithm will throw you off a certain platform.
Good morning, TikTok. So you can't say the whole name. Miami, Florida. How's the weather down in Miami? Man, I wish I was on a beach. It would be so nice. Indiana's here. Huntsville, Alabama. New York City. Grand Prairie, Texas. Delaware. Chicago. Phoenix, Florida. Hi, everybody. So glad that you're here. Really? Ethiopia? Hmm. Interesting. Okay. Good morning, everybody. Listen, that rally fallout. Don't get it twisted. Do not believe everything you hear. This is not going to affect the Trump campaign. People are not worried about it. They're worried about it. They are worried about it. And it's penetrating. And they're nervous. And they should be. They're pretending it's not. It's not a big deal. It's just a comedian. It's so funny.
It's not just a comedian. Look, if that was up on a comedy stage, if I told you, because I love stand-up comedy, I might be laughing my ass off. Thank you, TikTok, for that. I might be laughing my you-know-what off. I'm not laughing because this is not the time to laugh. And I'm going to agree with someone that you're going to be shocked But I actually agree with them because I would never, ever in 100 million years agree with this person. But a broken clock is right. They say twice a day. I say once a day because you only have one. One is a.m., one is p.m. But I know what it means. I know. I'm just saying, just trying to find something funny to say. But I actually agree with this person. So Donald Trump may have lost the presidential race over the weekend.
Seriously diminished his chances or may have lost the presidential race over the weekend. Now, I know all of the Trumpers and all of the MAGA folks in the chat. No, it's just a comedian. You guys are so your babies are doing this. And I'm going to show you some people who are saying the exact same thing. You're lying. It's not true. They are worried, and he could have lost the presidential campaign this weekend. Could have lost it. Now, let me tell you why. Instead of staying on message, talking about inflation, talking about government spending, Trump's closing rally at Madison Square Garden the second to last Sunday before the election was a circus of cruelty and racism and really tone deafness, right?
So you may not think it was particularly racist. Okay, that's your prerogative. You may not think that it was, you know, sexist. You may not think it was cruel. It was certainly tone deaf if it was anything. So rallies are, you guys are probably saying, Don, of course, Trump's rallies are always cruel and racist. And you're right. But here's the thing. For whatever reason, this is the one that's cutting through.
