Happy Sunday. Hello, Lemonheads. I'm so glad that you're here today. An impromptu live. Well, it was going to be impromptu, me just doing it by myself. And then all of a sudden, Miss Nikki, producer Nikki, chimed in and is feeling better. And so she's going to help us out here. And then also, look at that. The beautiful, indomitable... Flame Monroe.
Hi, Don. Hi, Lemonhead. I paid you to tell me I was beautiful, y'all.
Flame, can we tell Flame is a very talented comedian who happens to be trans. And so I've been wanting to get Flame on to talk about it. Flame, that thing, that light right in the middle of your glasses is blinding me. You see that?
Hold on. Should I put on my other glasses?
I don't know. You do what you want. I'm just telling you. There you go. There you go. And Flame is wearing her Republican hair today, she said. Flame, I have you on for a couple of reasons because I've been wanting to talk politics with you about what happened with the election and all the trans things. We'll get to that. But I think what's more important right now for me is what's in the zeitgeist right now. And that is what's happening in Washington, D.C. And also your friend, who we have talked about, Dave Chappelle, was the headliner, right, on the hosted SNL last night. And I want to talk to you about some of his remarks, okay? Okay. Shall we, my dear? Don't hold back now. Me? Yes.
My pull-out game is fantastic.
Who is guest Flame Monroe and why is she on Lemon LIVE at 5?
I ain't holding out on nothing. Let's go.
Okay, so here we go. Look. You know Rick Ross, Nelly. Snoop, who else? There's another one.
Soulja Boy.
Soulja Boy. All performing at Donald Trump's inaugural. They performed, I believe, some of it at the Crypto Ball last night. I don't know if they're performing at other things. And they're catching hell for it. People are saying they should be canceled, yada, yada, yada. And then today, look who tweeted this. Let's put it up.
Ain't nobody gonna perform for Donald Trump, huh? Which one of you jigaboo ass niggas gonna be the first one to do it? I'm waiting. I'm gonna roast the fuck out of one of you Uncle Tom ass niggas for doing it. Which one of you niggas gonna do it first? I suppose the one that performs for himself.
At about noon, just thought that I had to be gone. Flame.
Out. The internet reminds you of some stuff, won't it?
We'll remind you, and I have something else I want to remind you of, too, as well. Let's just play this. The Internet will remind you of some stuff. Nikki, there's also one, the one that has the three different things on it. I think it had that one first, and then it had another one where he's on a radio program. Nikki, if you have that one.
No.
You need to know that a lot of your fans are racist. Ain't no fucking way around it. Don't even try to put no cut. I don't even want to put anything around it. I do. I don't give a fuck. I tell them straight up, motherfucker, if you like that nigga, you motherfucking racist, fuck you and fuck him. Now what? All right. Draw the line, nigga. He drew the lines.
Exactly.
He drew the motherfucking lines. Before him, there were no lines. Everybody was everybody. We respected everything. We didn't trip. But nigga, when you drew the line, nigga, start pointing motherfuckers out and saying, nigga, fuck y'all then, nigga. Yeah, that's how you win them. If you're just tuning in with Kanye, don't forget about him, too. Fuck you, too.
Now, you know, he's talking about Kanye because Kanye wore the Make America Great Again hat. And he's talking about Donald Trump. And I think how Donald Trump had called out athletes, calling them SOBs and basically saying that Donald Trump was racist. OK, and now all of a sudden he's had a turnaround and he is singing. And I'm sorry, he is performing at the Donald Trump. inaugural ball. Look, you can feel a certain kind of way about it, but you understand why folks are like side-eyeing him like, wait, what?
Listen, let me tell you something, and you know I'm a fair person. Y'all give me hell for it, but I'm a very fair person. Okay, I got a lot of ways I can look. I'm coming at this from a lot of different angles.
