Kellyanne dismisses Trump's Mika 'facelift' tweets & makes it all about sexist attacks on herself

Kellyanne Conway dismisses Trump’s Mika ‘facelift’ tweets – and makes it all about ‘sexist attacks’ on herself

Appearing on Fox News with host Howard Kurtz, White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway turned a conversation about President Donald Trump’s sexist tweets about Morning Joe’s Mika Brzezinski into complaint about the real problem — sexist attacks upon herself.

The ever-compliant Kurtz briefly touched on Trump’s Mika tweets in order to give Conway a chance to vent, asking her, “Do you feel that you, as the highest ranking woman in the White House, are also the target of sexist attacks?”

“Sometimes, sure. Absolutely,” Conway began. “Look, it doesn’t get me off-kilter at all. I say prayers for those people. I’m there for the women who wouldn’t be so snotty and so miserable with their own lives that they would have to attack a stranger or a woman in power.”

Asked by Kurtz “Where are the stories about you as a victim of this,” Conway said those stories will never be written because she is a conservative.

“I’m a conservative, I work for Donald Trump and I’m pro-life,” Conway explained. “That’s okay because, you know, we live in the bubble. You have no idea how many Americans live the opposite way.”

Melania Trump is the First Lady. Conway doesn't have a formal job to do - she's just a PR person. Ivanka doesn't have a formal job either, but clearly, if she is used as substitute president when her dad's bladder or prostate lets him down, she's more important than Conway, the TV fall person. Elaine Chao and Betsy DeVos both have cabinet positions - an actual rank. Nikki Haley is UN ambassador. Hell, even Sarah Huckabee Sanders has a proper job in the White House. "Counselor" just means "yet another person to babysit Trump".

Notice I did not say "person" because I don't believe she deserves the title. Did you know she is actually more closely related to the horny toad? Her diet consists entirely of ants, and her body absorbs the formic acid. Those bags under her eyes are where she stores blood that is high in formic acid content. When she gets angry or is cornered by a liberal, she can shoot that blood out of her eyes. It is highly unpleasant.
