How to Solve the Harvey Weinstein Problem: The Daily Show

The only place we should be building a wall
is around Harvey Weinstein.
That's the only place...
we should be building any walls.
Because you realize, you realize
it's been two weeks since the story broke
and every single day it keeps getting worse.
Nearly 60 women now accuse him of misconduct
ranging from sexual harassment to rape.
The NYPD is looking into two credible
sexual assault allegations made against Weinstein
that date back more than ten years.
Sarah Ann Masse says her interview to be a nanny
for the film producer's children in 2008
took an unexpected turn.
He pulled me in for a very tight, overly long hug,
which, again, I will note, he was in his underwear.
(audience reacts)
I'm sorry, man, this guy keeps getting worse and worse.
Interviewing somebody in his underwear.
How does that interview even go? What do you say?
"So tell me about your strengths.
"Well, I'm really good at not throwing up
in my mouth right now."
Like, what kind of creep are you?
And now the NYPD is looking into criminal allegations as well.
So I guess it's a good thing
Harvey Weinstein likes people watching him shower
because there's a lot of that in prison.
That's, that's one upside for him.
It's the one place where it's normal.
Oh, and by the way, by the way,
this isn't just about Harvey Weinstein.
'Cause I've noticed some people who are like,
"Oh, Hollywood. Hollywood, this Hollywood thing."
This isn't a Hollywood problem.
This is a man problem.
TV REPORTER: The hashtag #MeToo becoming a rallying cry
against all sexual harassment and assault.
In the first 24 hours, 650,000 #MeToo tweets.
24 hours later, the #MeToo tweets are about double that.
In excess of 1.2 million tweets from women around the world
in multiple languages giving their own accounts
of their personal experiences with sexual harassment.
You are greater than what's happened to you.
You are loved and deserving of love.
-Hashtag #MeToo. -Me, too.
You know, I could talk about this all day,
but I'll tell you who I really want to hear from.
The Daily Show's very own Michelle Wolf, everybody.
(applause and cheering)
You know, Trevor is right.
This problem is bigger than Harvey Weinstein.
If there were two guys at a bar
and one was Weinstein and the other was Steve Bannon,
I'd go home with cyanide.
You know, and because of this story,
all these women are coming out
to say that they've also been sexually harassed.
And men are like, "I can't believe this."
And I'm like, "I know you can't."
Men don't know anything
that's going on with women.
You think you understand vaginas
because sometimes you put your penis in one.
That's like me saying I understand engineering
because I once drove through a tunnel.
And that's just our bodies.
Men have no idea about women's experiences.
Black, white, pretty, ugly,
rich, poor, human, a plant--
when it comes to sexual harassment, every day,
women are going through an obstacle course.
It's like a tough mudder,
but instead of mud it's dicks.
Oh, no!
Now I got to climb the dick wall.
Oh wait, this one's soft, this one's soft.
You're good for nothing.
And by the way, this issue isn't just about sex.
It's also about power.
It's not good enough to just fire Harvey,
because there's always a Bob.
The only way you change it
is you change the power from the top.
My solution: every time a guy gets caught
sexually harassing someone, you don't just fire him,
you have to replace him with a woman.
It's a policy that I call
"pull out your dick,
get replaced by a chick."
Michelle Wolf, everybody.
