PETE DOMINICK, COMEDIAN: I am having such a hard time trying to understand so many of the arguments, but I firmly believe, given the outcome, that it wasn't the candidate and it wasn't the policies.
[22:20:13]
Sadly, that many more people like this disgusting, horrible, horrible man. And he's popular. People like what he has done. People like how he behaves.
They appreciate and root for his cruelty.
And I just had dinner with my 19-year-old daughter, who I hadn't seen since the election here in the city. She's a student here. And she's terrified. And I didn't even recognize her because she's been crying so much and she posted tonight. She said, as a woman, I'm terrified.
This election was a harsh reminder that a woman could be everything she needs to be, but it's still not enough. She said the majority of this country has chosen hate over humanity. It was a stark choice. It was a stark choice in 2016. I was on The Apprentice in 2004 and had the opportunity to meet Donald Trump and I said, I don't want to meet that guy. He's a horrible guy. He's always been a horrible person and people like that.
This is who we are. I think it's really important to be honest about who too many of us are, too many of us.
