Trump\u2019s adviser, Kellyanne Conway, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/news\/politics\/ny-kellyanne-conway-nancy-pelosi-maid-trump-20190524-rc2esxkmmfc7djbdt2ls6kn4bu-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lashed out<\/a> at the House speaker, telling Fox News that Pelosi \u201ctreats everybody like they\u2019re her staff. She treats me like I\u2019m either her maid or her driver or her pilot or her makeup artist driver, and I\u2019m not.\u201d The 52-year-old New Jersey native went on to denounce Pelosi as anti-woman, insisting, \u201cShe\u2019s not very pro-woman. She\u2019s pro-some women, a few women.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p>Conway\u2019s characterization of Pelosi as a tyrannical anti-feminist who throws her weight around and could care less what anyone else says or thinks is laughable in light of how diplomatic Pelosi has been not only with Republicans, but also, with fellow Democrats she disagrees with. Pelosi\u2019s even-handed approach as House speaker has been one of give and take, not \u201cmy way or the highway.\u201d For example, Pelosi clearly wasn\u2019t happy about Rep. Rashida Tlaib\u2019s \u201cimpeach the motherfucker\u201d comment, but Pelosi said that while she \u201cwouldn\u2019t use that language\u201d herself, she was \u201cnot in the censorship business.\u201d Pelosi couldn\u2019t oversee such a broad group of Democrats in the House if she didn\u2019t have a give-and-take approach.  <\/p>\n<p>But then, Conway\u2019s audaciousness is part of what makes her such a brazen, tireless cheerleader for Trump. Conway, much like Trump himself, is thoroughly irreverent and totally unapologetic about it.  <\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the most over-the-top things Conway has said or done along the way.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Conway popularized the term \u2018alternative facts\u2019<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>During debates, Conway can make a person\u2019s head spin\u2014which is exactly the point. She wants to frustrate and overwhelm her opponent. On January 22, 2017, NBC\u2019s Chuck Todd aggressively questioned Conway about White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer exaggerating the number of people in attendance at Trump\u2019s inauguration\u2014and she asserted that Spicer was simply stating \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/meet-the-press\/video\/conway-press-secretary-gave-alternative-facts-860142147643\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">alternative facts<\/a>.\u201d Todd responded that \u201calternative facts are not facts. They\u2019re falsehoods.\u201d But thanks to Conway, the Orwellian term \u201calternative facts\u201d became the butt of jokes in political conversations&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">Inserted from &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rawstory.com\/2019\/05\/the-shocking-gall-of-kellyanne-conway-and-her-5-most-stunning-moments-so-far\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raw Story<\/a>&gt;<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">I shared the first of five.&nbsp; Click through for the other four.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#0000ff\">With even incompetent Republican rats deserting the sinking ship, Smellyanne may be the next SecDef or worse.<\/font><\/p>\n<h1 align=\"center\"><font color=\"#0000ff\"><font style=\"font-weight: bold\">RESIST!!<\/font><\/font><\/h1>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Smellyanne Conway has long been one of Twitter Twit&#8217;s favorite Republican goose-steppers.&nbsp; Why?&nbsp; No matter how extreme, offensive, incompetent, or just plain stupid it is, she will parrot any statement in sycophantic obedience to her Fuhrer.&nbsp; Here&#8217;s one of five examples of Smellyanne&#8217;s worst.
