Conway Says Trump Backs Her '100 Percent' After Promoting Ivanka's Biz

White House adviser Kellyanne Conway said on Thursday evening that President Donald Trump is still behind her "100 percent" following an interview during which she openly promoted Ivanka Trump's fashion line.
Press Secretary Sean Spicer said on Thursday that Conway had been "counseled" about the incident, and when asked about it by Fox News' Martha MacCallum on Thursday evening, Conway declined to elaborate.
Conway would only say that the President still backs her. "I am just really happy that I spent an awful lot of time of the president of the United States this afternoon and that he supports me 100 percent," she said on Fox News.
Conway's promotion of Ivanka Trump's brand came after Trump himself bashed Nordstrom in a tweet for dropping his daughter's line.
