Kellyanne Conway sidelined for a week straight after disastrous CNN interview
By Tommy Christopher | January 18, 2018

Kellyanne Conway's epic meltdown has sent her into another media exile, perhaps permanently.

White House counselor and “alternative facts” inventor Kellyanne Conway frequently retreats from public view following a PR disaster, but last week’s meltdown on CNN could portend a more permanent banishment.

Conway was benched by the White House following the revelation that she was instrumental in giving White House access to tell-all author Michael Wolff, and her return from the wilderness did not last long.

Last week, Conway left the familiar confines of Fox News to appear on CNN, and the result was an embarrassing dumpster fire during which she could not stop mentioning Hillary Clinton, while insisting that she never talks about Hillary Clinton.

Conway then proceeded to melt down on Twitter over that interview, and followed up by melting down on “Fox & Friends” the next morning......................................

1. You want to rejoice, until the realization someone even more awful will replace her hits home. . .

There is no hoped for "improvement" among the Trumpanistas; each succeeding level is doomed to be worse than the first.

off the top of my head:
KellyAnne Conway
Steven Miller
Sean Spicer
Sarah Huckabee Sanders
Sebastian Gorka

These are messed up, ill-informed, deceitful people that no president before Trump has stooped to.

I think they should all be like Scaramucci: on for a couple weeks so we can laugh our asses off, and then fired before they can cause any lasting damage.

It seemed comical when Iraq used Baghdad Bob but seeing Trumps clowns doing that crap to America .... in spite of SNL or whoever the comedians, I find it much harder to laugh. Like the movie, we have serious issues and we need seriously capable people to address them. It is painful to see the leader of the free world and the people who represent him be a widespread joke. They should have been run out of Washington long ago.

8. She is done and she has lost her 'touch'...her gish ain't so much galloping anymore.

So is essence she now serves absolutely no purpose being in the white trash house. If she's not there to sell the lies as effectively as she used to do then what the hell is her purpose? NONE.

I'd love to see her depart in a true blaze of glory so epic, people would be talking about it for years. Maybe showing up unannounced at a news event, or cable news studio wearing that hideous RW&B outfit that looked like a cross between a Continental army uniform and a 60's Carnaby Street party dress and running around babbling with her hair on fire.

Just a thought.
