ASAP starts brainstorming, and Hope is back to dressing like a high-fashion, busty Columbo. By the way, NBC should totally look into that as a series. “Hope Dworaczyk IS Busty Columbo.” I would watch that. Star talks abut how much pressure she’s under, then Ivanka and a Trump exec show up. He wants inspiration and glamour. Ivanka makes the point that they have more personality as a company than other luxury hotels. That is undeniably true, but I feel like the last thing you want to do is remind people of Trump’s personality.
Then we cut to Backbone, where they’re talking about the exact same things. Ivanka doesn’t want to see ads that look like every other hotel ad, with a waiter holding a glass of champagne. They want to boil it down to three words, “Live the life”. They are laboring under the impression that people actively want to be more like Trump. Kaboy interviews that he doesn’t have any idea where to begin.
This: “And it ends with the line “The Future is Trump”, and that’s actually the most terrifying thing I can envision. Imagine Trump as a brain in a jar (still with the hair, though), shouting orders at his StormTrumpers as they round up the last survivors of the Gold Wars. A band of scrappy rebels stands in opposition, but their primitive spears and blowguns can’t penetrate the golden armor of the StormTrumpers. Their only hope? The chosen ones – Anderson Cooper, Mahsa, and Eric Trump (who has been exiled from the kingdom and spent the last ten years living underground and training all manner of burrowing rodents to do his bidding).” is one of the funniest paragraphs ever written! Also, on a related note, does Eric Trump not have any access to lip balm? If I can tell you are need of lip moisturizers thru the TV screen, you’re in trouble!
