According to Capitol Hill staffers, citizens opposing Betsy DeVos’ nomination have flooded the Capitol Hill switchboard with a record 1.5 million calls a day.

Politico reported that Conway dismissed the callers during a meeting with lawmakers on Monday.

During Monday’s morning meeting, Conway, multiple sources said, shrugged off the concerns from thousands of people jamming phone lines critical of Trump’s Cabinet nominees, explaining that she’s more worried about her own “RPI” or “Real Person Impact” meter.

“She basically said the people jamming up the phones don’t matter to this White House,” one Republican senator’s communication director reportedly said. “That this administration just cares about what matters to ‘real people.'”

1. Awesome Kellyanne, keep pissing people off!

[cilla4progress]

2. This has always been their position.

Compare and contrast with Obama. The worst thing he ever said was that some Americans cling to their guns and religion out of fear. I never understood why this was seen as sarcastic or negative. It's true!!

28. People get the most angry when...

...called out on their BS. It was true when President Obama said it, and it's true now. People do not like hearing the truth about themselves.

The guy who cuts you off in traffic is sure to be the one to giveyou the finger, even tho he was the one in the wrong.

using robocalls as well.

[SamKnause]

[SDJay]

9. I Wish We Could Mask Our Numbers

so that every single person who calls looks like they're calling from Bowling Green.

[Shell_Seas]

10. Contact info for the Crypt Keeper?

Does she have a phone number? Email? Or address I can write her at?

[Cary]

11. They are a pure power grab

They make no effort whatsoever to represent WE, THE PEOPLE. They truly are fascists. They are shameless.

[Baitball Blogger]

12. Well, her confusion is understandable since her side uses bots.

[hurple]

13. Was her number one of those leaked?

Maybe try that one?

[democratisphere]

14. Conway is absolutely right. 1.5 million alternative people are calling each day.

We're not going to be silent about this coup.

[BruceWane]

15. She's not referring to automated calls..........

........she's saying that anyone who opposes them isn't a "real person".

Dehumanizing the opposition. Makes it easy to ignore them, treat them badly, even eliminate them.

[VWolf]

17. Of course not. They're alternative people. n/t

[riversedge]

18. More demeaning comments from a vile Repug!!

[Kber]

20. Well - I think I see a new project

Photography or video yourself making the call and post it to her and Trump's twitter accounts. Or create a new #realpeople and post them there.

[Mz Pip]

21. Sure Kellyanne

I programmed my Roomba to do it.

[Still Blue in PDX]

22. I believe Kellyanne Conway is not a real person. nt

[They_Live]

23. Or it could be that the majority of Americans (and the entire world)

hate you and this administration.

[sinkingfeeling]

24. So a small group of people, like the 1%, are the only real people that this

abhorrent administration cares about.

[ck4829]

25. Denial won't stop the fury

[Skittles]

26. get it? real people are middle America, rural, you know, THOSE FOLK

not like those godless commies in California and New York

[Solly Mack]

27. I guess we're just alternative facts.

snicker

On a serious note, she means it. We aren't "real people" to them. We are the nameless, faceless enemy to them, and all that word implies.

[randr]

30. "Real People" code for my imaginary friends?

[olddad56]

32. I would like to ask her one question. Just one question...

I would like to ask her if Donald has a little tiny dick.

[Third Doctor]

33. We'll show her how REAL we are in 2018.

[Marthe48]

34. you hag-ridden liar

[justiceischeap]

[spiderpig]

36. Will someone please wrap her up nice and cozy in one of Trumpy's

nonexistent bathrobes and put her in a rubber room?

Your act isn't cute. It's pathetic.

[nikibatts]

37. Tweet to Kellyanne

The majority of Americans do NOT like Trump. Neither do we like you!
