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

Legal analyst, political commentator, and host of Make It Make Sense Daily, Monique Pressley is back with another episode of The Week With Monique! This time, we’re talking about pardons...Trump-style. Once a solemn and rare presidential power, pardons have now become a VIP perk for anyone who can offer Trump enough praise and cash. Fraud? Violence? Treason-lite? No problem, just kiss the ring and open your wallet. Monique breaks down how Trump has turned clemency into a loyalty program for the rich, the corrupt, and the sycophantic. What does this mean for justice in America? Let’s make it make sense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

And that’s just the beginning. Who will walk away with the crown for Worst Human of the Week? That’s for you to decide. Don Lemon and George Hahn are bringing the facts, the snark, and absolutely no mercy. 🍋🔥 This episode is sponsored by MSI Choices. Every woman deserves a choice.

Just what we needed...more chaos. Tonight on Lemon Live at 5, Don is back with the Lemon Legends to break down the latest headlines. First up: Are we staring down another pandemic? The Department of Health and Human Services just pulled funding for the bird flu vaccine… because why not gamble with public health? Then, in a legal whiplash moment, an appeals court has frozen the freeze —meaning Trump’s tariffs are back on… for now. Who's keeping track anymore?

Well, the bromance is officially on the rocks. After weeks of whisperings and awkward side-eyes, Elon Musk is reportedly distancing himself from the Trump administration, right after criticizing Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill.” (You know, the one that slashes Medicaid and hands tax breaks to billionaires like… Elon.) Was this doomed from the start? Two egos, one spotlight, and zero accountability. Let's dive into the fallout of the Trump-Elon breakup, what this means for DOGE’s future (yes, really), and whether this power split is a sign of deeper fractures in MAGA-world. Tune in, Lemon Nation. It's giving divorce court energy. This episode is sponsored by MSI Choices. Every woman deserves a choice.

Tonight we’re diving into the latest MAGA mess, starting with Trump’s full-on meltdown after a reporter brought up the term “TACO Trade”...short for Trump Always Chickens Out, in reference to his habit of slapping on tariffs, only to immediately yank them back. In case you were wondering, he did not take it well. Meanwhile, Elon Musk is breaking ranks and speaking out against Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill.” So, is MAGA eating itself again? Join us as we break down the drama, the dysfunction, and the latest cracks in the Trump coalition. This episode is sponsored by MSI Choices. Every woman deserves a choice.
