Lemon LIVE at 5 | EXCLUSIVE: First Black Woman Governor!? With Keisha Lance Bottoms

Don Lemon | May 21, 2026



Tonight, we break down the growing fallout from Donald Trump’s leadership, from rising economic anxiety to escalating global tensions and mounting questions about corruption and accountability.
Gas prices are climbing, recession fears are spreading, and critics are sounding alarms over the massive $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool that could potentially benefit Trump allies and political loyalists. Add in the ongoing chaos surrounding Iran policy, and a lot of people are asking the same question: how much more instability can the country take?
And then there’s Trump himself. After another round of rambling public remarks today, concerns about his behavior and mental sharpness are once again dominating conversation online and across the political world.
We are joined by Senator Catherine Cortez Masto and Keisha Lance Bottoms!

    People who live in (Exile) the ( in any country)are going to side with their 'host' countries- the Western media needs to talk to Iranians currently living in Iran. I have close Iranian friends who are living in Iran during this illegal War – their really is very different from the lady from New York…..this ladies comment that 'protesters' are being Executed every day is not 100% true. 😮😮

    Wow, this guy gets away with everything. At this point, I’m convinced that Trump must have something on all of the people in power. This could be the reason they’re not releasing the Epstein files. He’s using it as leverage.
