Summary

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.
