Nothing about Trump has changed, except for who he has the power to hurt.
I am standing on a helipad in NYC watching Trump’s helicopter land I have been feeling more haunted by this day than ever before. I was working as the production assistant to Ellen and we traveled to New York for a series of shows to launch the new season. The specifics of this field shoot have grown hazy. In my role, I was sometimes equipped with a clamshell to capture extra b roll. On this day, I simply had a stack of releases to in case anyone besides the two of them wound up on camera. Because of this, I did my best to keep close to the action. There was more jostling than usual behind the camera, I believe due to his security jockeying for dominance. We were walking through a corridor that was both indoors and outdoors, headed to the helipad, there was a gutter, I believe to capture rain, and at one point, one of his security guards, one I recall seeing on TV occasionally during the first administration, with a simple swipe of his hand, shoved me and I fell into it. Finally, she has admitted why she left. Rosie left too, and at least is speaking out. Why was Trump acceptable during this chummy field shoot, but is so dangerous now that she rehomed abroad? I’m only left with more questions.
