Kellyanne Conway Slips Up, Implies Trump White House Will Be Terrible Place For Women

Kellyanne Conway suggested on Wednesday that she would turn down an official role in the White House because of the strain it would put on her family. Conway, who managed Donald Trump’s campaign, added that she would continue to advise the president-elect.

Conway did not, as some twisted media reports claimed, say that mothers generally shouldn’t work at the White House. Nor did she play the “woman card,” as one opinion columnist in The Washington Post tried to argue.

But what she did say at “Women Rule,” a conference hosted by Politico, signals that the environment for women in the Trump administration will be difficult. Men are the ones who rule in Trumpland, which adheres to “traditional” male-female roles when it comes to work and family. Modern notions don’t seem to apply.

Conway, who turns 50 on Inauguration Day, has four children under the age of 12 at home and a husband who works full time as a litigator at a prestigious law firm. Her choice makes sense. It’s also possible her comment was just an elegant ― and classic ― way to dump Trump. Leaving a job to “spend more time with family” is a time-honored politician dodge.

1. I don't like her but she's not dumb

[Miles Archer]

4. It took this to convince me.

Obviously, she is "Baghdad Bob." She delivers the message, and that's it. That takes less intelligence and more a lack of conscience, and I already gave her credit for that. But yeah...knowing what working in the Trump White House would be like and abstaining shows that she is at least not delusional on that level.

8. He'll need her down the road and she'll be able to name her price

As an outside consultant who won't have to put up with all the towel snapping.

9. Would you like to place a bet on her "pulling a Lewandowski?"

She'll get hired as a "special commentator," which is code for "Trump mouthpiece," and she'll get trotted out every time he needs to spin something.

10. No way we've seen or heard the last of her

And she won't be talking for free.

2. Of course she doesn't want to work for the government...

She does not want to live like a poor. She'll be the head deplorable at the Trump support party and keep making millions

3. Hmmm i keep hearing that it was Jared who was really running the show

Yeah they dumped all credit for you Kellyanne.

6. There was a story earlier today...

...saying that Ivanka is going to step away from her business because Kuschner is getting a key role in the administration.

God, I have a hard time typing that without calling it the "administration."

There, that's better.

11. Pretty funny how Trumpass favors Jared over his own boys

Granted Donnie Jr isn't exactly a mental razor but apparently Cheetoh Hombre really really likes the guy who's great accomplishment was being a rich jerk.

5. the White House is still going to need a serving wench. All those men are not just going to pour

their own coffee. And whose ass are they going to grab?

[deminks]

7. President P*ssygrabber and the GrOPers?

No self respecting woman would work there, at all.
