Nothing.
She said nothing about the fact they he is no longer in charge of the department she made it look like he still was in charge of.

Ohio union leader hammers Trump for broken promises: ‘He told folks jobs are coming back — we’ve seen job losses’
“The GOP tax cut gave corporations like GM an incentive to build products outside the state,” he said. “I just wanted him to understand that… the regulations on books aren’t really helping working people, it’s not helping companies that actually employ people.”
"A lot of people here voted for him,” he said. “He came here and told folks, ‘Don’t sell your house, those jobs are coming back.’ And we’ve seen job losses.”

Every day, 75,000 military veterans are about to have their health care services chaotically disrupted thanks to the Trump administration's push to privatize the VA health care system.
An independent review by the U.S. Digital Service of a software tool that is about to deployed by the Trump team reveals major problems with the program, and the review recommends scrapping the software altogether, ProPublica reports.

When he said he didn't think the global rise of white nationalism was a cause for concern, I was hoping he just got caught off guard by the question. And then, fifty (FIFTY) tweets over the weekend, and not one of them mentioned the butchering of innocent people here by a white nationalist.
He's a paranoiac in desperate search of an enemy. What an utter cunt.

Yet another reason I'm glad I live in Oz.
My concern is he will do something really stupid which will effect my country.
Not that I wish this one anyone; I'm a tad surprised that some left wing nut job hasn't had go at Trump.
------and no, I'm not saying all of the left are nut jobs, only that I'm sure they have their fair share. I met a few in my union days. EG one Trot who spent his annual leave at a communist guerrilla camp on Mindanao, Philippines. (1980's)

The following was emailed to me without attribution (I didn't write it, but I wish I had).
*****
An anguished question from a Trump supporter: ‘Why do liberals think Trump supporters are stupid?’
The serious answer: Here’s what we really think about Trump supporters - the rich, the poor, the malignant and the innocently well-meaning, the ones who think and the ones who don't...
That when you saw a man who had owned a fraudulent University, intent on scamming poor people, you thought "Fine."
That when you saw a man who had made it his business practice to stiff his creditors, you said, "Okay."
That when you heard him proudly brag about his own history of sexual abuse, you said, "No problem."
That when he made up stories about seeing Muslim-Americans in the thousands cheering the destruction of the World Trade Center, you said, "Not an issue."
That when you saw him brag that he could shoot a man on Fifth Avenue and you wouldn't care, you chirped, "He sure knows me."
That when you heard him illustrate his own character by telling that cute story about the elderly guest bleeding on the floor at his country club, the story about how he turned his back and how it was all an imposition on him, you said, "That's cool!"
That when you saw him mock the disabled, you thought it was the funniest thing you ever saw.
That when you heard him brag that he doesn't read books, you said, "Well, who has time?"
That when the Central Park Five were compensated as innocent men convicted of a crime they didn't commit, and he angrily said that they should still be in prison, you said, "That makes sense."
That when you heard him tell his supporters to beat up protesters and that he would hire attorneys, you thought, "Yes!"
That when you heard him tell one rally to confiscate a man's coat before throwing him out into the freezing cold, you said, "What a great guy!"
That you have watched the parade of neo-Nazis and white supremacists with whom he curries favor, while refusing to condemn outright Nazis, and you have said, "Thumbs up!"
That you hear him unable to talk to foreign dignitaries without insulting their countries and demanding that they praise his electoral win, you said, "That's the way I want my President to be."
That you have watched him remove expertise from all layers of government in favor of people who make money off of eliminating protections in the industries they're supposed to be regulating and you have said, "What a genius!"
That you have heard him continue to profit from his businesses, in part by leveraging his position as President, to the point of overcharging the Secret Service for space in the properties he owns, and you have said, "That's smart!"
That you have heard him say that it was difficult to help Puerto Rico because it was the middle of water and you have said, "That makes sense."
That you have seen him start fights with every country from Canada to New Zealand while praising Russia and quote, "falling in love" with the dictator of North Korea, and you have said, "That's statesmanship!"
That Trump separated children from their families and put them in cages, managed to lose track of 1500 kids, has opened a tent city incarceration camp in the desert in Texas - he explains that they’re just “animals” - and you say, “Well, OK then.”
That you have witnessed all the thousand and one other manifestations of corruption and low moral character and outright animalistic rudeness and contempt for you, the working American voter, and you still show up grinning and wearing your MAGA hats and threatening to beat up anybody who says otherwise.
What you don't get, Trump supporters in 2019, is that succumbing to frustration and thinking of you as stupid may be wrong and unhelpful, but it's also...hear me...charitable.
Because if you're NOT stupid, we must turn to other explanations, and most of them are less flattering.

"Once someone understands narcissistic personality disorder, they understand you -- and why you're unfit and incompetent for the esteemed office you temporarily hold."
-- George Conway on Trump
"George Conway, often referred to as Mr. Kellyanne Conway by those who know him, is VERY jealous of his wife's success and angry that I, with her help, didn't give him the job he so desperately wanted. I barely know him but just take a look, a stone cold LOSER and husband from hell."
-- Trump
"You. Are. Nuts."
-- Conway
