From Kellyanne Conway to Stephen Miller, Trump's advisers face taunts from hecklers around D.C.
Source: Washington Post
Just after arriving in Washington to work for President Trump, Kellyanne Conway found herself in a downtown supermarket, where a man rushing by with his shopping cart sneered, You ought to be ashamed of yourself! Go look in the mirror!
Mirrors are in aisle 9 Ill go get one now, Conway recalled replying. She brushed off the dart with the swagger of someone raised in the ever-attitudinal trenches of South Jersey. What am I gonna do? Fall apart in the canned vegetable aisle?

Better be better! a stranger shouted at Stephen Miller, a senior Trump adviser and the architect of his zero-tolerance immigration policy, as he walked through Dupont Circle a few months ago. Millers visage subsequently appeared on Wanted posters someone placed on lampposts ringing his City Center apartment building.
...
Most of the interactions that Trumps well-known aides have with strangers amount to nothing more than posing for selfies. But his advisers have also found themselves subjected to a string of embarrassing public spankings, a litany that began even before he took office.

(5,461 posts)We need to challenge the Un-American assholes EVERYWHERE. They should not have a moment of peace.
"No justice, no peace" has a relevant ring to it right now.
AND ....DO NOT for one stinking minute believe any of the Russian troll BULLSHIT about leaving the party!!!!
The Soviet/KGB/GRU/Putin troll farm is in high gear trying to sabotage the midterms.
DO NOT BELIEVE A FUCKING MICROSECOND OF IT.
We are UNITED in bringing about the total destruction of Trumpism and the Repuke Party. Nothing LESS.

I'm glad Democrats are standing up when Republicans screw immigrants, minorities, & LGBT, but they also need to do when they screw ALL of us.

(39,405 posts)When the government tries to manipulate the public during a political crisis, they were constantly undercut by the public tweeting, texting, and live streaming the set up of their scams.
That should happen at every power lunch, golf trip, meeting hookers in the hotel lounge or whatever.
It starts with words....
