What is the show’s opening summary and who are the guests introduced?
You guys know what that music is, what my young social media team calls my boomer music. He says, you know, that's such a boomer music. But anyway, that means it's time for the Don Lemon Show. And it's time for actually, whoops. It's actually a lemon live at five as you can hear the music playing again. I like it so much that I'm going to play it twice. Thank you. joining us today i really appreciate it okay so that was me listening to watching myself on youtube so here's the thing usually you know when you declare yourself to be a uh black nazi usually that is like a career ender right in american politics that's what usually happens in american politics but look you never know with what's happening now the entire senior staff though working for this republican mark robinson remember we told you about him in north carolina
the guy who said he was a black Nazi who's running for governor. Well, his entire senior team has quit. After that CNN report revealed that these alleged postings on a porn website message board, his campaign manager, the deputy campaign manager, the finance director, and the senior advisor all stepped down over the weekend. The campaign confirming in a statement to US, to us media or US media. I'm not sure what that means. So he has but three staffers left. One of them is his bodyguard. We also have some rough new polling for the vice president, Kamala Harris. We told you about this. The folks on the Republican side, on Donald Trump's side, had said, hey, listen, when all of this hoopla goes down and people get used to her being the candidate after Joe Biden, the president, dropped out after the convention, that it will settle back down.
And perhaps even the polling would even go to back where it was when Joe Biden was a candidate. And it appears... From at least one poll, that could be happening. It could be an outlier, but things seem to be settling. There's also a pleasant surprise, though, for the vice president out of Nebraska that we'll tell you about. So we have one great person here. Someone else is going to join us later to discuss, and that's Whitley Yates. Whitley is a Republican strategist, a journalist, and a contributor to MSNBC, to Politico, and the host of other publications. I'm so happy that you could be here. How are you doing, Whitley?
I'm great. I'm excited to be here.
I know. So you're going to be on with me. We're going to get in trouble. I mean, you know.
I hope we don't get into trouble. But I do think we need to, you know, talk facts over feelings.
I do. I love that. I love that kind of conversation. So we're happy that you're here. So if it's all right, I want to start with the reason that I asked you to join this evening. Because I was on social and I saw this clip of you, right? I watched. It was your appearance on a Jonathan show. My friend Jonathan K. Parts MSNBC show over the weekend. And I thought you offered some brilliant commentary. I want the audience to pay attention, and then you and I will discuss. Here it is. Okay. At his rally in North Carolina today without Mark Robinson, and what he had to say about Oprah?
Did you see her on Oprah? That's not going to be president. Oprah didn't know what the hell to do. Oprah was, like, embarrassed. She wanted to hide under the table, but... She's a professional and she was able to sort of disguise it. No, she wanted to go right under the table.
Whitley, why does Donald Trump lie like that? I mean, everybody knows. Come on.
What controversy surrounds Mark Robinson and why did his campaign staff resign?
I think that there were times during that interview where it looked like Oprah was trying to figure out where VP Harris was going. And I think when you're when we're looking at this circumspectly, when we're talking about battleground states and talking to working people, everyday americans utilizing a billionaire who's not dealing with the cost of inflation with stagnant wages with stagnant industries is really just out of touch and i think that's what he really meant to say is that hiding behind hollywood as opposed to really just talking about the policies of your administration may not be working specifically in battleground states that is literally there pause it pause it pause it now whitley yes don
