It’s Day 100 of Trump’s second term, and not only is the economy spiraling, but America’s patience with the ultra-wealthy is wearing dangerously thin. Public opinion of billionaires is sinking fast, with Elon Musk’s approval ratings plummeting and Jeff Bezos now quietly walking back Amazon’s plan to show how Trump’s tariffs are jacking up prices. (Because heaven forbid people know who’s actually making things worse.) Tonight, Don breaks down the growing resentment toward America’s richest, and how, once again, it feels like the billionaires are selling out the rest of the country to protect their own bottom line. Pop the popcorn, Lemon Nation, the class divide is about to get a lot louder. This episode is sponsored by Shopify. Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial and start selling today at SHOPIFY.

We are deeply saddened to share that Congressman Gerry Connolly has resigned as Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee, citing his ongoing battle with esophageal cancer. Congressman Connolly has been a dedicated public servant throughout his career, and we send him and his family strength and support during this difficult time. But as Don warned back in December, the Democratic Party missed an important opportunity. Instead of selecting a younger, more dynamic leader like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, they stuck with the "safe" choice, and now find themselves scrambling for new leadership at a critical moment. Join Don as he revisits the warning he gave months ago, and breaks down what this moment means for the future of Democratic leadership, and why bold choices matter. Learn more about your ad choices.

If the goal was to break as much as possible, as fast as possible...mission accomplished. Join Don as he breaks down the wreckage, the warning signs, and what the next hundred days could look like if this chaos continues unchecked. Buckle up, Lemon Nation. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Just 99 days into Trump’s presidency, and the wheels already look like they’re coming off. His approval rating is plummeting, the economy is teetering on the edge thanks to reckless tariffs, and immigration policies are diving headfirst into unconstitutional territory. Now, facing mounting backlash, economic fallout, and legal challenges, Trump seems to be quietly walking back some of his biggest campaign promises. (Who could have guessed governing is harder than rage-tweeting?) Don breaks down the growing frustration across the country, the cracks inside MAGA world, and whether Trump’s retreat is too little, too late. Lemon Nation, the chaos is just getting started.
