On Target 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Lawrence’s analysis of Hope Hicks on the stand at Trump’s election interference trial in New York is why I listen. In all the coverage, only Lawrence did not bow to her appearance, her tears, or her mild manner. He nailed the situation and did it eloquently. Privilege, out-of-her-depth at the White House, selling out for access. His comparison between Hick’s and the Social Media pro for the prosecution on the stand the same day was on target. Thank you Lawrence for seeing things so clearly and reporting what others won’t or can’t. 🎯
Lawrence O’Donnell. That best for showing us who Donald Trump is a very small man.
A great podcast.
