How Trump’s Women Twist Themselves to Please Him | The Daily Beast Podcast
Former Trump staffer Anthony Scaramucci and Nell Scovell join Joanna Coles on a special edition episode of the Daily Beast Podcast. Scaramucci offers a revealing look at how Donald Trump behaves around women, arguing that he wants loyalty above all else and explaining why women who work for him quickly learn that everything is ultimately about the president. Joanna and Nell then turn to the women competing to fill the vacuum around Trump, from Lara Trump and Tiffany Trump to Bettina Anderson and his granddaughter Kai, exploring their ambitions, their carefully curated social media lives, and their very different relationships with the Trump patriarch. Along the way, they examine why Trump’s children seem to keep their distance, what his absence from Don Jr.’s wedding really says about the family, and the increasingly strange competition for Trump’s attention and approval.

DEM Messaging: 1) Too bad they had to brag "socialist" and not "progressive"–dumb move.
2) Agree 💯% in stressing more opportunity–then again, that translates into "go to school" to many MAGA. We're not opening coal mines to speed the planet to its ruin.
3) Must avoid women this time. Must focus on economic winning: MAGA sees Musk as "aspirational." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Donald like women like he likes dogs … he doesn’t but will use them if he feels they make him look good. Like jewelry or any accessory. He’s a human potato head … trying to fit in with humanBEINGS.

The .apparent concentration of narcissism within the Trump-Clan raises the question of whether narcissism is, after all, genetically predisposed.

Ivanka is AWOL because it tarnished her NYC socialite status and she doesn't want to make it worse. I'm sure she has the glow of an expectant inheritor, truth be told.

Trump “I’m gonna be dating her in ten years, can you believe it?” Video of Trump bragging on camera to very young girls/children at Shopping Mall’s Escalator … Trump has plans for the little girls ….
