    Thank you for speaking truthfully about Hope Hicks. Hicks is a collaborator. She should be treated as such.
  • @Oz1111
    No one rips on trump like Lawrence. God, I love this man. ❤
  • @cbauer5559
    "Bravo" to the young woman in the District Attorney's office!
  • @aidacadena
    Hope Hicks would have been one of those complicit Southern women making excuses for slavery back in the day.
  • @einienj3281
    Hicks was not a disappointment as a witness, but a disappointment as a human being.
  • Hope Hicks is an opportunist. Thank you Lawrence for seeing right through her. Trust me, others of us have too.
  • @cfrac22
    Thank you to that unknown woman in the DA’s office. We cannot thank you enough for your difficult job.
  • @TomServo_MST3K
    In all honesty, this just bolsters my respect for Cassidy Hutchinson. Two women, in almost the exact same position, faced with the exact same choice of conscience. One decided to keep drinking the Koolaid while the other opened her eyes to the cult she was a part of.
  • @xiozen
    This was a vicious and delicious vilification of prestigious Hope Hicks. Well done, Mr. O'Donnell. Well done.
  • I didn't expect this anti-Hope Hicks tirade from Mr. O'Donnell...but he was right about her and spot on and I learned a lot.
  • @313holc
    O'Donnell is the only person I've heard call hope hicks out on her BS
  • @HelmaOsmond
    This was one of the best Lawrence monologues I've ever heard. Spot on!
  • @MsMsmak
    Brutal and completely justified appraisal of Hicks. This will haunt her for the rest of her life.
  • @patbyron4445
    Thank you Lawrence for placing a honest perspective on Hope Hicks. No other news agency did.
  • @petertuohy2886
    The best editorial of this whole courtroom drama. Very well done Lawrence!!! Nailed it!
  • You are - along with Rachel - the BEST journalists I’ve seen/heard in decades. DECADES!!! Thank you, Mr. O’Donnell, for doing the best job that can possibly be done in journalism. I love the seriousness with real passion you bring while never missing the absurdity of it. You, along with Ms. Maddow, are certainly born to be doing exactly what you’re doing. And I very much appreciate all your efforts, especially the successes. Keep up the good work - just keep doing what you’re doing! It’s working!

    This is a man that is all about integrity, for himself and our country.
