Top Trump Advisor Tells 17 Year Old She's 'Mean' and Using 'Sexual Assault to Try to Make News'

'For You to Use Sexual Assault to Try to Make News Here I Think Is Unfortunate'

Kellyanne Conway on Wedneday told a 17-year old high school student she is "mean" and using "sexual assault to try to make news." Conway, now a senior adviser to the Trump transition team, was the first woman campaign manager to deliver the White House to a presidential candidate.

Speaking with a group of students at an event hosted by the University of Virginia's Center for Politics in Washington, D.C., Conway was asked how she was able to support Donald Trump, a man who apparently admitted to acts of sexual assault against women, and who has been accused of sexual assault by about a dozen women.

“Donald Trump has negated claims that he sexually assaulted women but also admitted to a tape where he seemed to be describing sexual assault,” the 17-year old young woman asked Conway at the event, the 18th Annual American Democracy Conference. (Video at link, below), starting at the 1:52:00 mark.)

“How do you rationalize that as a woman and also as his campaign manager?” the 17-year old asked, as Politico reported.

I'm in HORROR overload, which appears to be the strategy... Shock Doctrine, indeed.

One of the foulest things to come out of this whole nightmare is the blatant woman on woman ugliness.
Conway is the epitome of that ugliness.
