Don Lemon ‘serious’ about 2028 presidential run: ‘People keep asking me to do it’
NY Post ^ | 7/16/26 | Daniel Cody

Former CNN host and independent journalist Don Lemon claimed in a new interview that he’s “serious” about possibly running for president in the 2028 election — and insisted he’d be a “really good” commander-in-chief.

Lemon made the eyebrow-raising declaration on “Can’t Be Censored” podcast hosted by Karman Wong and Travis Dhanraj, insisting that everyone wants to know if he has White House aspirations.

“Do you have political ambition? Is that true?” Dhanraj asked on Wednesday’s show.

“No, but people keep asking me if I’m running for president,” Lemon answered.

“And I don’t know. I might. I’m serious. I don’t know. I might, because people keep asking me to do it, or if I’m going to do it.”

Lemon, 60, argued that experience isn’t necessarily a requirement to be commander-in-chief, citing President Trump’s lack of a political background before his election win in 2016.

Lemon went on to bash Trump, claiming the president “could have done a better job if he actually listened to people, but he doesn’t and he thinks he knows everything.”

“But, um, I actually think I would be a really good president of the United States,” he continued.

Bernie actually had millions of delusional young kids that actually thought he was cool.
Seth Rich died because he was a Bernie supporter.

Bernie started out running for office in Burlington, VT. He became mayor and turned a beautiful college town on Lake Champlain into a drug infested sh#t hole.

Bernie turned that into a run for Senate eventually.
Again, young delusional college kids think that Socialism is the answer. That if people can take control that everyone is going to get a free house, etc. A workers utopia.

Bernie used that money to buy a nice house in the Georgetown section of DC. Then when he ran for POTUS, the Democratic party again bought him off. So, he would get out of the way for herself. The Hillary.

As we know Bernie then got the lake house on one of those VT islands on Lake Champlain.
Now, he is going to support AOC so that she can become a US Senator from NY. Eventually she will run for POTUS. and she COULD win.
