Kellyanne Conway takes aim at Jared Kushner in new book

Former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway reportedly criticized former President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner in her new book, calling him “shrewd and calculating” and saying he had an unchecked sense of power.

In her book “Here’s the Deal,” Conway referred to Kushner as “a man of knowing nods, quizzical looks, and sidebar inquiries” and said he knew that “no matter how disastrous a personnel change or legislative attempt may be, he was unlikely to be held accountable for it,” according to The Washington Post.

(Snip)

“There was no subject he considered beyond his expertise,” Conway reportedly writes, saying that if martians attacked he would have “happily added them to his ever-bulging portfolio.”

“He misread the Constitution in one crucial respect, thinking that all power not given to the federal government was reserved to him,” Conway adds.

I Hope & Pray that Colbert or Kimmel don't have her on their shows.

Since I've pretty much stopped watching the other news channels, there's no chance I'll have to see her heavily made up face on my tv.

At least that is what I have been 'splained in the past. Of course, any person is worthy of discussion, derision, or investigation...anyone, but it is important to understand there are those with ulterior motives and they love them some dog whistles.

..that went on and they participated in after the fact. They're all opportunists who never should have been in the Executive branch to begin with.

I care as much about what this propaganda spin artist has to say about anything as much as I care to hear what lipstick-on-a-pig thinks about anything. Deplorable bitch.

She must give damn good sex to be able to hang on to her relatively sane and rational husband. Such a witch.

I can’t think of a reason I’d care about anything this woman has to say. Ms. Alternative Facts could evaporate totally unnoticed and unmissed.

When I think of this woman, I first think of her as having a dry and shriveled appearance, but still playing the part of a bouncy girl. As if to confirm my own impression, she gave us the bouncy visual of her with her feet on a sofa in Oval Office, doing her best Gidget imitation in a room full of disinterested men.

Her husband should have dumped her ass a long time ago.
