Samantha Bee perfectly takes down Kellyanne Conway

Donald Trump promised to "drain the swamp" of corruption in D.C., but how much is he keeping to that campaign chant? On Wednesday's episode of Full Frontal, Samantha Bee noted that Trump keeps hiring the types of Goldman Sachs executives that his campaign was adamantly against. The latest? "Hedge fund manager and John Oliver's evil twin, Steven Mnuchin."

After working at Goldman, Mnuchin financed films in Hollywood, such as Suicide Squad -- which Bee says is her nickname for working class citizens who voted for Trump.

"They are sooo screwed," she says heavily.

Mnuchin earned the nickname "foreclosure king" by buying a bank and changing its name before foreclosing on the homes of 36,000 people.

Bee also spent a segment unpacking the anti-feminism of Kellyanne Conway.

"We haven't seen a woman do this much spinning and lying since Tonya Harding," Bee concluded.
