> [@Knowed\_Out](#): > > As much scorn and ridicule that Kellyanne and Sean Spicer get thrown at them, they seem to think unswerving loyalty to Trump will somehow benefit them. How does Trump manage to find such willing stooges? Money? Prestige? Ability to attract the willingly stupid? Cheap bourbon for Bannon and all the salt Conway can absorb. ---

I just feel badly that… forever forward… people are going to link him with Kellyanne Conway… “Oh Hells No!

> [@QuickSilver](#): > > Stupefying. > > What is it like to live with this kind of cognitive dissonance? How does she face the mirror in the morning, let alone show up to an event like this? I don’t think it is cognitive dissonance. I think she knows exactly what she is saying and doing, with no conflict at all. I believe she knows it is all lies and misdirection, and it is deliberate. That in my book, is worse. Ignorance or stupidity could be forgiven. But not this. ---
