AMERICANS OVERWHELMINGLY SAY LIVES HAVE IMPROVED SINCE KELLYANNE CONWAY WENT AWAY

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—An overwhelming majority of Americans say that their lives have improved since Kellyanne Conway went away, a new poll finds.

According to the poll, Americans have been sleeping more, eating better, and enjoying a markedly greater sense of well-being following Conway’s sudden departure.

“I had lost my zest for life,” Carol Foyler, a poll respondent, said. “Now that Kellyanne Conway is gone, I greet every day with a smile, I feel my energy coming back, and I want to have sex again.”

Across the nation, medical professionals have reported striking improvements in patients’ mental health since the White House counsellor vanished, a phenomenon some doctors are calling the Conway Effect.

I implore other Americans to share their own tales of triumph in the wake of the Disappearance of Kellyanne. #KryptKeeperKelly

They don't seem to have as much of an incentive to protect themselves any more.

That counts.

Her voice has destroyed many an ear in it's time. You got lucky that they hid that corpse away from the public

Trump and the repulsives are the bacteria that created the boil
