looks like she's donated at least a few years of aging to this campaign. I assume she came in with her eyes open and was tough enough to stay the course for another month, if allowed....

In any case, I suspect her real "employer" are billionaire Robert Mercer and daughter Rebekah, and perhaps others. As long as they believe she's done a good job. Btw, supposedly the Mercers are battling the Kochs for the direction of how the GOP will resurrect. Near as I can tell, they all want to destroy America as we know it and restyle it to their preferences.

https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2016/08/31/revealed-conway-bannon-members-secretive-group

The two political operatives chosen earlier this month to lead Donald Trump’s presidential campaign after two former managers departed have been members of the secretive Council for National Policy (CNP)

....snip.....

The CNP is not controversial so much for the conservatives who dominate it — activists of the religious right and the so-called “culture wars,” along with a smattering of wealthy financiers, Congressional operatives, right-wing consultants and Tea Party operatives — as for the many real extremists who are included.

They include people like Michael Peroutka, a neo-Confederate who for years was on the board of the white supremacist League of the South; Jerome Corsi, a strident Obama “birther” and the propagandist hit man responsible for the “Swift boating” of John Kerry; Joseph Farah, who runs the wildly conspiracist “news” operation known as WorldNetDaily; Mat Staver, the Liberty Counsel leader who has worked to re-criminalize gay sex; etc etc etc

I hope she slithers back under the rock she came out from....

She would sit there and lie and lie and lie, with a complete look of sincerity on her face. Remarkable to be such a practiced liar.

She did manage to get him to use the teleprompter more.

Though, I noticed he was going off it a LOT the last couple days... more of a sign she is no longer in control.

There is some new equally disgusting surrogate by the name of Leslie Rutledge. Almost a clone of KellyAnne mastering the art of spilling a massive amount of crap in the matter of one minute and excellent pivoting style. Expect to see more of that horror.
