Who cares about anything other than the truth? They all knew everything and did nothing.

Why do you continue to interview Grisham? How many years was she in that administration and in the year she was "press secretary" she never opened her mouth. She is as bad as the rest of them.

I'm astonished that Stephanie had the gall to title her book 'I'll Take Your Questions Now' because, as I recall, she never held a single press briefing when she was Press Secretary.

The former press secretary who never held a single press conference

[JackieOgle]

I wonder how anyone witnessing and knowing what they knew, stayed. That's what bothers me the most. They knew but chose to stay. I think that speaks volumes.

The only thing either of these disgraceful women should be feeling guilty about is helping to enable this tyrant. Shame on this woman.

It's interesting how everyone is falling all over themselves over Hope Hicks and how "emotional" she got and how tough it was for her. Cry me a river. Seriously, she aided and stood by Trump, who is a criminal. If she is contrite or feels guilty, she should. She was part of the problem.

[charlessmyth]

Like so many of her counterparts, no one compelled her to work for him

[johnnyvaughn]

That's what a narcissist does. They make you feel guilty for their own bad behavior

[Uswesi]

A young, attractive, teenage model, become senior aide at the WH, with no experience whatsoever.

Another enabler. This former press secretary and enabler was the rudest person.

[SashaCoCo]

Hicks' stint with Trump is a stain on her career. Her standing by him, supporting him, and remaining silent for years makes her complicit in not working in the best interest of our country and the American public.

[lyellclare]

Hick knew what was happening in the White House yet stayed around, she could have resigned if she had the courage to do so. Face facts, she was just eye candy to Trump.

They all knew everything and did nothing.

Hope HIcks was a 26 year old online model for Ivanka Trump's fashion line, with a 4 year degree in English from Southern Methodist University. Then with no experience in politics or campaign work beyond the trump circle, she became his White House Communications Director. Am I the only one missing the whole "Qualifications" issue in this? Then in February, 2018, Hicks gave nine hours of closed-door testimony to the House Intelligence Committee, she acknowledged that she sometimes had to tell "white lies" in her work as communications director for trump, but refused to answer any questions about her tenure in the White House. Then announced her resignation the very next day.

[SwisstedChef]

Yeah, WHO cares where she looks, he looks, she cries, he doesnt, who cares, move on and get him behind bars

[lind]

What people will do for power is absolutely disgusting.

[janicemoore]

They were in a cult. "The Boss". I think they all need deprogramming. She looks like Octo-mom.. Just saying.

[SwisstedChef]

BOOORING, the fact she worked for him says who she is

[DanielVLynn]

If you use “bombshell” in every video title that has anything to do with Trump, the word will become meaningless.
