Trump’s Big Iran Announcement Raises More Questions Than Answers (ft. Ian Bremmer)
"And lastly, Michelle Obama is a man. Am I right, America? I mean, I thought to myself, memo to self, who is this fucking idiot? And make sure that no one I ever work with or invest in ever gets near this idiot. And you're right, it did, like, I think, cast a pall over that event. I don't think real men say that about real women."
During the historic UFC event on the White House lawn celebrating Trump's 80th birthday, a fighter made a transphobic claim about former First Lady Michelle Obama while Joe Rogan stood by smiling. Scott Galloway condemned the remark as depravity that undermined the entire event, while Jessica Tarlow noted it features prominently in coverage and called out those remaining silent, saying it proves critics calling such events 'trash' are vindicated.
