Alternative facts
January 23, 2017 at 12:28 pm
I was watching this live as it happened yesterday morning:
When I stopped laughing I called my wife into the room so she could see the moment that the defining description of the Trump administration was uttered.
A big THANK YOU to Kellyanne! Alt facts for the Alt right!
If god was real he wouldn't need middle men to explain his wants or do his bidding.

That moment, just before Kellyanne utters the phrase, is priceless. She looks like she's choking on a chicken bone. Yeah, she's an opportunistic she-devil who went to work for Trump after working for the Cruz campaign, but there must be some limit beyond which she's in danger of her head exploding. I can only think of three reasons she might be able to get through a typical day: power-obsessed sociopath, closet alcoholic, or both.

Have you considered stockholm syndrome?

I can't tell whether it's just her or if it's because she's the embodiment of the stupidity of the American people, but every time I see her I get that same overwhelming urge to punch her in the face that I get with George W. I think if she ever answers a question directly, we can assume the apocalypse isn't far behind.
Yes, when you've sold a large portion of the electorate an alternative reality, you have to make up alternative facts. But now I think she's just trying to see how much bullshit she can get people to buy for the hell of it. "Lol, let's see how stupid our followers can be!"
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

At the risk of appearing to evaluate her in the way Trump does women, does anyone else think she looks a little like a former meth addict?

I'd pay good money to hear the pillow talk in the Conway home at the end of a work day.
