Former CNN host Don Lemon recently found himself in a surprising situation while speaking to voters in historically deep blue New Jersey. In a video posted on Saturday, Lemon attempted to defend Vice President Kamala Harris, but was met with unexpected responses from voters.
One interviewee boldly declared, “Trump for the win,” and criticized Harris, stating that she wasn’t fit for the lead role. When Lemon questioned if gender played a role in their opinion, the voter clarified that it had nothing to do with Harris being a woman.
Harris, who quickly took over President Biden’s position at the top of the Democratic ticket, faced criticism from voters who cited reasons such as a decline in their personal finances and concerns about her experience. Despite Lemon’s attempts to defend Harris by highlighting her background as a prosecutor, attorney general, senator, and vice president, some voters remained steadfast in their support for former President Donald Trump.
The video concluded with Lemon expressing his need to move on to the next location, after encountering a mix of opinions in Atlantic City. Lemon also visited Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he found a different sentiment among voters who were planning to support Harris.
As the election season heats up, the divide among voters continues to be evident, with differing opinions on the candidates’ qualifications and policies. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming election and the evolving political landscape.
