Lemon LIVE at 5 | President for Life: Is Donald Trump Trying to Be King?! - October 28th, 2025

Welcome to The Sour Lemon Special! Every week, we break down the most outrageous, corrupt, and downright awful behavior from the people in power—and this time, we’ve got a stacked lineup of contestants. Who will take home the title of this week’s Sour Lemon? You decide! Here are the nominees: 🍋 Chuck Schumer – The guy who keeps mistaking ‘compromise’ for ‘giving Republicans everything they want,’ Chuck Schumer. 🍋 Hakeem Jeffries – The guy who talks a big game about standing up to MAGA but still somehow ends up folding like a cheap lawn chair. 🍋 Alina Habba – Trump’s least competent lawyer—and that’s saying something—proving once again that loyalty matters more than skill in MAGA world. 🍋 Gavin Newsom – California’s smooth-talking governor, who thinks sitting down with far-right extremists is a winning strategy. 🍋 Marco Rubio – Florida’s most forgettable senator, now back with more performative outrage and zero accomplishments. 🍋 Wendy Williams’ Guardian – A guardian in name only, making Wendy’s life way harder than it needs to be.

Instead of working to show people how good they are, MAGA decides to show people just how awful they can be. Is this working? Tune in for Don's take! Learn more about your ad choices.
