WATCH: Matt Walsh Lays Out How He Got Don Lemon To Promote ‘Am I Racist?’

Former CNN host Don Lemon unintentionally promoted a website for Daily Wire podcast host Matt Walsh’s new film, “Am I racist?,” while Lemon covered the Democratic National Convention (DNC).

Walsh went to the convention dressed as a “DEI consultant,” a nod to his undercover character in “Am I Racist?” There, Walsh and his team passed out flyers and cards that warned DNC-goers about the supposed perils of Project2025, which is a conservative plan from the Heritage Foundation that the Left has tied to former President Donald Trump, though Trump has denounced it.

The website listed on the materials, however, directs users to a trailer for “Am I Racist?,” a link to purchase tickets, and the Daily Wire membership sign-up page.

Despite Walsh openly talking about the prank online for a full day, Lemon and his team posted (and later deleted) a video of Lemon promoting Walsh’s film’s website. The video posted by the far-Left politico even ends with Lemon holding up a card promoting Project2025.com — the website that links to “Am I Racist?”

Walsh addressed Lemon’s promotion on his podcast Friday, joking that Lemon is now the film’s “number one spokesman.”

The conservative also mocked Lemon and his team for not catching the joke, even after Walsh openly discussed the prank online.

“Is Lemon in on the joke?” Walsh said, “because how else do you explain a supposed journalist airing the footage — that footage — a day after I told everyone on [X] what we did.”

“Maybe Don Lemon doesn’t follow me [on X], fine,” he continued. “But even just five seconds of due diligence — you’re editing the video, nobody even goes to the site?”

Walsh also commented on the other people Lemon spoke to at the DNC about Project 2025. Notably, not a single person gave any real description of the document, instead vaguely claiming that it’s “against America” and “dangerous.”

Trump Buries Hatchet With Republican Governor In Swing State

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump buried the hatchet with Georgia Governor Brian Kemp (R) this week after the two have repeatedly clashed at various points over the last few years.

“We got to win. We got to win from the top of the ticket on down,” Kemp told Fox News host Sean Hannity this week. “I’ve been saying consistently for a long time, we cannot afford another four years of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris. And I think, you know, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz would be even worse. So we need to send Donald Trump back to the White House. We need to retake the Senate. We need to hold the House. We need to hold our legislative majorities that we have in the great state of Georgia, and it takes hard work, that’s what we’ve been doing.”

Kemp said that his political operation has been hard at work in the ground game for nearly two months knocking on doors and focusing on getting high voter turnout.

“I just want to urge everybody out there, we cannot take this for granted,” he said. “We have got to get the vote out. We gotta stay focused. We gotta stay focused on the future. We need to do like you just did … continue to hammer Kamala Harris’ record and the record of Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and the other people that have been really for 12 of the last 16 years, punishing the American people.”

“I know the Democrats have been talking about joy at the convention all week, and I feel like the joy is subsiding, and when the sugar high of the convention subsides, people are going to really start thinking, ‘It’s not so joyful when I look at my bank account; it’s not joyful when I can’t make my car payment or my rent payment, or I have to decide whether I’m going to buy gas or buy groceries,'” he continued. “People have not forgotten the disaster at the border and the millions and millions of illegal people that are in our country that are getting better benefits than some of our hard-working Georgians and hardworking Americans out there.”

Trump responded to Kemp’s remarks by posting on X: “Thank you to @BrianKempGA for all of your help and support in Georgia, where a win is so important to the success of our Party and, most importantly, our Country. I look forward to working with you, your team, and all of my friends in Georgia to help MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
