Kellyanne Conway decides to remind us all what an idiot she is
In the midst of what might be the most disastrous and embarrassing week yet for a consistently disastrous and embarrassing Donald Trump presidency, one might think that an ancillary figure like Kellyanne Conway would have the sense to lay low. Instead she’s found a new way to insert herself into the conversation this week, which only serves to remind us what an idiot she is.
While giving a speech, Kellyanne Conway insisted that “I’m a person in the West Wing who has actually never uttered the word ‘fake news.'” Someone should probably inform her that “fake news” is two words, not one big word. But there’s a much bigger problem: she uses that phrase as much as anyone.
Here are just a few instances of Conway tweeting the words “fake news”:

So thanks, Kellyanne Conway, for finding a way to stand out as an idiot this week even amidst all the more profound idiocy emanating from the Trump White House like a tidal wave of sludge. Kellyanne just literally delivered fake news about her own usage of the phrase “fake news.”
