Stephanie Ruhle Blown Away When Speaker Johnson Says Women Can't Mentally 'Compartmentalize' [View all]

MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle could not believe her ears when Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and his wife offered some retrograde thoughts on women’s brains.

On Friday’s edition of The 11th Hour, Ruhle aired a snippet of an interview the speaker and his wife Kelly Johnson did with Katie Miller last month. During the exchange, Mike Johnson said women can’t mentally “compartmentalize.” The speaker’s wife agreed:

MIKE JOHNSON: Men and women are different in this way, is that men can compartmentalize things.

KELLY JOHNSON: Men brains are like waffles.

Except for Trump and MAGA Mike. Their brains are like waffle fries.
