Former CNN star Don Lemon gleefully celebrated with plenty of expletives after the MAGA squad squabbled over H1-B visas this week.

On YouTube’s “The Don Lemon Show,” he laughed at Donald Trump’s right-wing internet squad over their newfound rage with the visas that allow companies to hire foreign workers for certain jobs.

“Some farmers say without these workers, they have about two days that they can run their farm, and then after that it’s over,” Lemon said, falling back in his chair from laughter. “Now you’re finding out, you dumb f--king idiots. Now you’re just figuring this s--t out.”

He then went on to say that the Trump supporters in question were “so f--king stupid” and deserved it.

“Yes, I am gloating over your stupidity,” he continued.

Lemon was reacting to a weekend during which many in Trump’s inner circle fought over U.S. immigration policy, with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy coming out as staunch supporters of foreign workers.

The billionaire duo’s stance prompted fierce backlash from the likes of Steve Bannon and the more dogmatic conservative wing of the Republican party—prompting a war of words between the two warring sides.

Musk was caught agreeing with a tweet that called Americans too “retarded” to staff the U.S. tech industry without visa-holders.

At the climax of his weekend posting, Musk even told an X user who disagreed with him to “F--K YOURSELF in the face.”

In typical fashion, the president-elect followed up Musk’s comments with support for the SpaceX founder’s stance.

“I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said.

Lemon appeared to agree with the president-elect, slamming those who came out in opposition to the hiring of foreign workers.

“You have been co-opted because you’re in a f--king cult,” Lemon continued, “And you don’t even realize it because you have stupid MAGA brain.”

Bannon, for example, called the H1-B visa’s a “scam.”

“Let me just restate something, as a fact. The H1B visa program is a total and complete scam from its top to the bottom,” Bannon said.
