Kellyanne Conway Makes a Big Funny

Heh.

"Unlike men, I will have plenty of time to do my job because I don't play golf or have mistresses."


You know all the lib women out there wish they had the balls to say that, and they are laughing their collective arses off too. A good time is had by all.

I am sure that Hillary is home in her jammies and slippers watching that on TV and having a big laugh too. Wait...let me think about that. She might be sensitive on some of those comments.

She will have time to do her job. More time than she probably intended. She was appointed to a makeshift position with no true assigned role. It just seems like a job given to someone who is useful and good to keep around because you will never know when you may need them.

She got offered press secretary which she declined. She is good with the press but it's not like DT is press friendly so why do a job like that. She was smart enough to decline that position plus she seems like someone who views them self as intelligent and being a press secretary just makes you look like a mouthpiece. Don't go from looking like the brains behind the operation to a mouthpiece.

Wow, that seems unnecessarily sour.

Trump and Conway have clearly had a win/win relationship. She has four kids to think about and was not excited about working in DC., but Trump values her and they worked something out. Nothing wrong with that. The President of the United States /elect leaned over backward to accommodate a family oriented woman in the workforce- which sets a good example- then the libs step forward to kick him in the balls and devalue her as a tool. I think that if he were a democrat this scenario would get interpreted differently.

Also having a president treat you as though you are "useful and good to keep around because you never know when you may be needed" is absolutely one of the highest honors in this country. Presidents do serious things. It is not all about dancing with Ellen or trying to find the next transgender general.

Two thumbs up to Trump and Conway for working something out. I do suspect that she will be working rather fulltime and rather diligently to make American Great Again, and yes, she will probably be used to save his arse many times. Gee I wonder why a leader such as a president or general would ever want someone like that on their staff.

You voted for Hillary and Bernie right?

You do know she ran a campaign right? So the kids excuse is exactly that...an excuse. Being a stay at home mom is a great thing. But what she did is pretty transparent.

People who are white house Press secretary usually get jobs afterwards working at news stations not "getting any job they want."

Don't forget this gal had a job working for a super pac supporting Cruz and knocking Trump. This is not someone who is about being overly loyal. Everyone has their own agenda. That's why I find it ironic she didn't want Romney in the club.

I guess I am either not smart enough or focused enough to follow what your drift is. You seem to be leaning over backwards to say something sour and you justify it by trying to make some case that Kelly Ann Conway is actually being treated shabbily because she "ran a campaign" and the things offered to her afterwards were only so-so. I could be wrong because, as I said, I can't follow your drift.

Being a great and victorious campaign manager does not automatically lead to a great staff position because it is a given that governing is different from campaigning.

Let's see now. Obama's first campaign manager was David Plouffe as I recall. What became of him? Who knows? Then his campaign manager in 2012 was David Axlerod. What became of him? Oh, I see. He became a "Senior Advisor" to Obama whereas Kellyann Conway became "Counselor to the President." I will leave it to you explain what the substantive difference is there. Don't shiite yourself. The Trump Administration taking over is literally one of the most happening and moving and shaking places on earth right now even if one does not support him. And, having the position of "Counselor to the President" where the president is the most powerful position on earth is a right snappy position to have and Kellyann Conway done good, plenty good.

As I said, I think you are just feeling sour and trying to find some facts to go with it. You are not doing well with the election. We see that and that's fine. It is not going to cause Trump to step down or anything. It is okay to be grumpy and have a free-floating crotchetyness as you try to adjust. As a lib, you are in a constant search to feeeeel good about things. That is hard on a man. Sometimes you just take in the chops and it cannot be prettied up but that doesnt mean you are going to die. The faster you accept that, the faster you can start helping to Make America Great Again.

Lol you're a character. You assume much. Let me help you see the light. Where is Guiliani, Christie, Newt? People who supported and helped him win? I said Conway was next up and it shows.

She was treated shabby for not getting that role first but being offered press secretary instead. You're right there is no substantial difference between advisor and counselor so shouldn't she have been offered the position of advisor or counselor first?

Just in case you missed this from my first post:

"Don't forget this gal had a job working for a super pac supporting Cruz and knocking Trump. This is not someone who is about being overly loyal. Everyone has their own agenda. That's why I find it ironic she didn't want Romney in the club."

Yeh, I guess we need to leave it there because I just dont follow your drift or logic at all if in fact there is any.

As I said, "it is well established that there is a big difference between campaigning and governing." Christie, Guiliani, and Newt are nowhere now for exactly that reason. A president may still decide to look at them for their skills beyond the campaign and they may or may not get a job offer for those skills or they may get one but not the one they wanted and go away pissed. It is all case by case. They may be able to work something out, or they may not. Just as with Conway. This is all quite elementary but apparently a bit new to you.

How are you not getting that? All that to say this video you posted is all "talk." Trying to look big. Yeah she got a big role but so did Steve Bannon from day one for doing half as much work. If you laugh at what she said then also laugh at her for saying it.

Bannon said "you give me the job and I will be there tomorrow because I am free to go anywhere, anytime and to work 24hours a day because this is my whole life." So there was not a lot of considerations to work out there.

I take Conway at her word. She said right from the get-go that she did not want to go to DC and that she could not be available all the time from dawn to midnight as needed. She and Trump worked that through. You, however, have inside knowledge such that you are confident that she was lying and was actually begging to work inside the white house and that all of her comments were just a ruse to cover up the fact that Trump was dissing her and treating her as second-rate. That's fiine. I can't compete with the voices in your Rice Krispies. As we both implied, Newt, Christie, and Rudy did not make out well either. They could have (not sure about Newt) if they wanted what was being offered but they were not able to come to an agreement. Same with Ben Carson, he was in and then he was out and then he was in again based on how the daily negotiation was going. Trump had a say, and they had a say too. Although you are clearly looking for something sinister here, consider the simple possibiity that Kellyanne was just one more person who had to go back and forth to find a fit- or to see if there would be one at all.

Don't you think though that - of all the issues you could have with Trump- you are trying a bit too hard here? As a secular lib, you should be celebrating the fact that we have just passed the Winter Solstice, and it is a period of new beginnings and more light ahead. Begin to leave your depression behind a bit.
