She's a pathetic weasel who gets paid handsomely to talk absolute horseshit and shill for her boss.

Same. It wouldn't make us good people worthy of respect and admiration, but it would make us rich.

And when you get rich most of the people around you aren’t worthy of respect either so you’re on level playing field. You live your life pretending you’re good people while being rich

Don’t pretend you wouldn’t for that paycheque

Nah, I'm a terrible liar even if I liked doing it.

And this is an actual thing - spokespeople are generally female now as we as humans have a greater capacity for empathy and more inherent respect for women. At one point spokes people were all men… And nowadays, even the most evil companies push the women out front so that they can be a bit more evil for a just a little bit longer before the shit hits the fan.

Basically evil people, male and female, will still do the same shit, lying dishonest job, so long as they are paid for it. We just cut the women a lot more slack.
