Conway: If I Were Killed, 'Half of Twitter Would Explode In Applause'

White House aide Kellyanne Conway urged reflection on Friday about the coarseness of political rhetoric in the aftermath of the shooting at a Republican congressional baseball team practice.

Though Conway emphasized repeatedly in an interview with “Fox & Friends” Friday that “nobody is responsible for this shooting except the shooter,” she spent most of her remarks on the incident singling out Democrats and the media for their “hateful” rhetoric regarding President Donald Trump and other Republicans.

“We will continue to disagree on policy and on issues. But I really would ask people to think about the hateful rhetoric,” Conway said. “This man, the shooter the other day, didn’t hate baseball. He hated Republicans. And his social media feed was a complete anti-Trump, anti-Republican screed. I mean for those, particularly in the media, who are so obsessed with the President’s social media postings, why isn’t everybody looking inside a little bit at what they’re posting and what they’re saying?”

“Really, nobody is responsible for this shooting except the shooter,” she continued. “There is no question about that. At the same time, you can oppose policies, but (unintelligible) with such hateful charged rhetoric that active resistance becomes armed resistance in the case of this lone gunman.”

1. Ridiculous

Two thirds at least

(Does she REALLY think she's that important? Give it another six months, and the whole country will be asking Kellyanne who?)

[Wawannabe]

2. Hahahahhhahaaaaaa!

I am fucking bawling laughing!!!!

That bitch is already a ghastly ghost tho!

[DFW]

4. I hope this doesn't come off as sexist

But at least in recent photos, she REALLY looks like she could use some quality time off.

[Wawannabe]

6. No offense taken

Cuz she needs more than time off. I looked like that? my ass wouldn't be on network tv (um, constantly) it'd be under a paper bag!!!
She is some kind of MSM whore in my NASTY opinion!!!

[DFW]

9. Maybe it's just the wear and tear

But maybe not--she definitely doesn't look like someone who has nature take its course.

[58Sunliner]

15. Please don't call women whores-you should edit your comment or get flagged.

[Coventina]

16. We regularly call both men and women media whores on this site.

The term has a different context than that of slut-shaming women.

[Wawannabe]

25. Thank you! Nt

[58Sunliner]

14. Sounds sexist and calling a white person a ghastly ghost could be interpreted as racist.

[Wawannabe]

26. Thank you for the interpretation. Nt

[Maven]

3. LOL!

[Wounded Bear]

5. Maybe for a moment, but she's not worth a big celebration...

[DFW]

10. Exactly--she's fishing for something, and she's not going to get it

If a piano were to fall on her tomorrow, maybe a few weeks later someone (probably including Trump) might remark, "hey, whatever happened to whatsername?" but that's about it.

[titaniumsalute]

7. She is delusional as always

I'm a liberal and can't stand Kellyanne. But I certainly do NOT want to see harm come to her. She's still a wife, a mother, someone's daughter, etc. I don't wish physical harm on anyone so don't generalize Kellyanne.

[nolabear]

8. ...

[MFM008]

11. Your wrong

We want you OUT.
nor dead.
I'd never wish anyone but maggot dead.

[Trust Buster]

12. In their ultimate posture of victimhood, now they fantasize publicly about being a victim on some

future date. Marvelous.

[athena]

13. That statement is true of any Democratic politician.

You can say that about Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and many others. If any of them were killed, half of Twitter would, indeed "explode in applause".

Kellyanne Conway is extremely good at manipulating the narrative and accusing Democrats of Republican ills.

[NCTraveler]

17. She should think about that for more than a fleeting second.

Please do some self-reflection. You aren't this toxic because of some kind of righteousness.

[GeorgeGist]

18. The President ...

on Fifth Ave, with a gun.

[OnDoutside]

19. Give her credit, at least she's thinking about how unpopular she is....

[kairos12]

20. Neither applauded nor mourned. Just forgotten. As it should be.

[WePurrsevere]

21. Classic GOP finger pointing. Two points...

First point... I don't wish any human being dead. I may wish them gone or locked up in jail yes but dead? No.

Second point... The shooter didn't just hate Republicans. He hated the DNC and Hillary too. I grabbed a few screen shots from one of his FB pages to prove it just before FB took them down.

[Demsrule86]

22. You are not that important Conway...we would feel sad for your family...and you.

[MagickMuffin]

23. It is the republicons in congress and specifically their Dear Leader,

who said on the campaign trail "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters," your party started this hateful rhetoric and it started with President Carter, the Clinton's, Obama.

So, leadership and responsibility begins with YOUR PARTY, since Democrats don't campaign on the act of shooting somebody in the public streets or any violence what-so-ever!

[gembaby1]

24. Oh Please.....

She has one hell of big ego if she believes that!

[Historic NY]

27. Would anyone notice, she thinks she is self-important.

He husband turned down Trump because of what he is.

[Doodley]

28. The same old narrative to the base that Trump and Co are all innocent victims of MSM and Liberals

[Bradical79]

29. Serious answer: Not sure how I'd feel, but I don't want her dea

I think she's a waste of skin right now, so I'm not sure I'd feel much either way. I'm fine allowing anyone the oppourtunity to enlighten themselves. I'd prefer her to be behind bars first or working some job where she has zero ability to inspire other deplorables or hurt more people.
