Katie Porter Is Cruel to Everyone, Not Just CEOs

Tim argues Katie Porter's viciousness isn't selective outrage at billionaires but a constant personality trait, citing her treatment of her aide, her ex-husband (the mashed potato incident), and speculating about her behavior at McDonald's drive-thrus.
- Katie Porter is an angry, vicious person—like a junkyard dog that scares children, but that's exactly what you want in politics.
- Imagine being at Katie Porter's house for a holiday—the stress, tension, and silences punctuated by her witchlike howl.
- Porter doesn't just mistreat her staff; she's incapable of being nice to anyone, which is precisely why she's effective in Congress.
- She's going back through the McDonald's drive-thru complaining about missing barbecue sauce or cutting lines at fast food restaurants.
- Tim watches Porter yell at her aide and notes she woke up angry—so angry she just wants to eat French toast.
- Everyone in that house has low blood sugar; they all need a fish taco yesterday.
- Porter walks out on a CBS interview when asked what she'd say to Trump voters, refusing to give the easiest political answer.
- Any politician could answer that question by saying people care about family and economic security, but Porter's too angry to bother.
- Porter is furious about trivial things—not leaving the house on time, a dress that doesn't fit right—and that anger determines how she treats everyone.
- When the CBS anchor asks her a question, Porter internally dismisses her as a hack and bimbo, convinced she only got the job through connections.
