At just what wusses they are, just how weak-minded these men are that they cannot stand up to this man.
21:07
We've been talking a bit about Melania and how one of the big differences between the first administration and this one is she went from being, um, 46 to 56, which means she most likely went through the change in the [laughs] in the interim, and how she even opened up a task force for menopause this March for the White House, and just how maybe like a lot of women who go through menopause, she just doesn't give a fuck anymore.
21:42
She stopped caring what people think about her.
21:45
She's just gonna get her money and, uh, do we like that for her?

46:00
... okay, so final, final, um, Kaitlan Collins, who clearly gets under his skin, won't smile, won't smile at him, does in fact smile to other people.
46:13
Well, she's a total professional.
46:16
Her job is to ask him hard questions, and he doesn't like it.
46:22
And, and he can't answer them, whether it's because he doesn't know the answer or because he can't think of a lie fast enough, and when he can't, he, his go-to is to attack people for working for fake news or, um, to attack, and it's usually women, for their, uh, appearance or style.
25:30
Now how many...
25:30
Right.
25:30
So if Natalie's the human printer, Margo is the human iPhone.
25:37
She's the one who's often recording the president.
25:39
In fact, um, when he was recorded talking about the, um, confidential papers he had, which he, uh, um, couldn't declassify, um, that was actually on her phone.
25:55
She recorded that.
25:56
All her devices were subpoenaed.

10 MINS LATER

35:31
Painful at so many levels.
14:08
She's on a modeling contract for Trump to pretend that she's First Lady.
14:12
And listen, she wasn't around that much the first time around, but then filling in for her was Ivanka, and she was always there.
14:22
She had an office in the White House.
14:25
She served as an advisor to the president.
14:28
She claimed she was advocating for working women and families, um, but apparently she abandoned [laughs] uh, those families and has now distanced herself from politics, which she now s- calls a very dark and negative business, right? Gee, I wonder who made it that way.
14:49
Um, she's focusing on her own family and developing a luxury spa with her husband, um, [laughs] the weekend nuclear arms negotiator, Jared Kushner.
15:03
It's on Albania, and, um, it's an island that was used during World War II.

28:37
Home court advantage, and her parents are divorced of course, and she has a new stepmom.
36:12
Um-
36:12
Well, it, that was amazing.
36:13
Anyway, so Ivanka kind of is building on what the success of Lean In and then Girl Boss.
36:23
Um, and th-this, so this is her take on empowering women.
36:29
"After starting my fashion brand, it was exciting to see women on the street wearing my heels or carrying handbags from my collection.
36:39
I was really proud of the fact that my collections captured a femininity and a sense of fashion that working women hadn't been able to express even just the decade before.
36:53
My company was not just meeting the lifestyle needs of today's modern professional woman with versatile, well-designed products, it was celebrating those needs at a price point she could afford."
37:23
Marketing slop.
6:23
It was kind of the snark minus the wit sort of became the internet thing.
6:30
Yes.
6:31
And there was real reporting.
6:34
And I feel very lucky because it was Graydon Carter and Kurt Anderson were the founders.
6:40
They're both incredible writers themselves.
6:44
And they really pushed me.
6:46
They would say, you know, be funnier, go harder, be meaner.

7 MINS LATER

14:07
And very marginalized leading up to that there.
