Last week we found out that Kellyanne Conway, a rather disingenuous woman with deep professional republican bona fides, had registered under FARA laws so that she could lobby the US Government on behalf of Ukraine. Essentially, Kellyanne Conway is a Ukraine lobbyist.
The MSM tried to push a story that people around President Trump were positioning Conway for a more substantive role in the Trump campaign. However, President Trump put a stop to that false narrative by telling everyone there was ZERO truth to such a claim.
VIA MSM – Donald Trump denied a report that he might be looking to bring back his former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway who served as a senior counselor to the former president.
Speculation that Conway could again take on a prominent role in his campaign grew after Tara Palmeri reported in the online magazine, Puck, that some of the former president’s family members are pushing for her return.
[…] Trump denied the report in an interview with The New York Times Friday, confirming he was not making any changes to his campaign team and that he was “thrilled” with his top advisers, Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita. (Read More)

You are either on something or onto something Ghost
(©Dan Cole “The Common Man” KFAN Radio)
I think you are onto something…
“Am I the only one amazed that Trump…”
Don’t know, but I am amazed by posters who could so blithely overlook the intentional use of the word “disingenuous” that Sundance chose to describe KAC, while at the same time thinking they know more than him, or worse…that SD would miss what you suggest is true.
The list of names of graves I’d like to pee on gets longer everyday. (Not very original, but it works.)
Especially smoldering embers…..of a campfire.
My dog has a looooong list. He’ll be busy for a while.
Litter box contents work in a pinch.
I do so enjoy it when these frauds show their true colors.
Sooner or later, they always tell you who they really are.
This is confusing to me why she is moving in this direction. I have so many questions.
It’s a bit perplexing. Although her husband being who he was was always a warning. But she seemed staunch regardless of his insanity.
I’ll never forget Inauguration Day. She wore that outfit that was emblematic of a revolutionary war uniform. It was so inspiring. And yet here we are. She takes off the mask and she was a dragon snake all along. A lying liar who lies.
Sooooo disheartening. And makes you look at all the people around PDJT and wonder, when will their masks come down. It’s disheartening and frustrating on so many levels.
She’s divorced.
She is still . . . weird.
I know. But even tolerating that guy during all of that spoke volumes.
Do you all remember the” Spitter” James Carvill and his oh so conservative wife Mary Madeline? Eventually the Spitter won or she was never really a conservative to begin with.
James Carville, AKA “Trailer Trash Nosferatu”? (Apologies to trailer denizens). He must have used the “Look in to my eye” technique. Actually Mary Matalin is now a “libertarian” which usually translates to “cheap democrat”.
“TT Nosferatu”! I am glad I swallowed my coffee before I read that! Hat tip on that one!
Ol’ Lizard Head (h/t to the Maha Rushie).
Rule number one: Follow The Money!
She’s found a more lucrative offer.
…simple straight answer: she’s a traitor. Paid to do the wrong thing…ie. continue the laundering of United States taxpayers’ money to the oligarchs (and worse) with kickbacks to Kellyasse. No peace in sight.
Why? Were you that enamored of her?
Probably it’s simply that this is a way for her to make decent money in a short period of time. She will probably make a few million in short order.
Simple, the Ukrainian trough of cash is heading towards drought and she wanted to get her snout in it before that happened.
Good move in DC terms.
Please go away kellyann – Just take the money and run far away. You were a nightmare during the first administration.
Don’t remember her doing much in the 1st PDT administration. Seemed to me she just skated in after the 2016 campaign. You have to know she has something fundamentally wrong with her to stay with that fat greasy pig for a husband as long as she did.
I question why she even married the slob. Who in their right mind…
In her excellent book, “Here’s The Deal,” Kellyanne explains how she grew to love George, had 4 (late in life) children, and how George fully expected a big job in Trump Admin. When George was passed over, he became enraged (and imho his narcissism took over), leading him into DTS.
Kellyanne is smart, loyal, and she absolutely led Trump campaign victory. She also helped them navigate several shitstorms—and to her credit, she exposes (but doesn’t name) the hypocrites attacking Trump.
I think when she got a firm “no” regarding position in Trump 47, she looked for other clients. Woman has to live too.
I met her years ago; she clearly wrote her memoir.
DC is crawling with snakes, but Kellyanne is not one of them…
If she is taking Ukraine money, she’s on the list.
She ain’t no babe either.
She was great at defending Trump during the 2016 campaign. Very good at deflecting the press and backing Trump up.
Here is an interview of Conway after Trump won in 2016.I think she helped him at the time.
She was his campaign manager. She knew where to hold rallies to get out the “forgotten man” vote. Without her contribution we might not have won in 2016. It’s too bad her family fell apart as a result. God bless them.
She was being paid. This is who she is.
Who works for free?
Good riddance to white trash! I never liked her.
A nose for money!
Well, Fox News likes her a lot. Gave her a show on their subscription channel which I heard is failing badly since Tucker left.
Reminds me of the scene from the movie “Ted”. She does have one of those trash type names.
Positioning for the next big play, BLACKROCK rebuilding the rubble that is Ukraine and carving up what Russia leaves behind
Unless Russia just decides to gobble it up.
I’m not a huge fan, but there is going to need to be some continuity with Kyev, and she’s not the worst person to provide it.
Putin will never countenance a former Ukraine lobbyist having anything to do with the Ukraine oblast.
Well she’s a single mom now so a girl’s gotta make a buck.
At least she’s not going to be a WH leaker this time.
OK… so what’s the underlaying story here?
Other than her husband who is a nut case, at one point Kelly Ann seemed to be genuinely supporting Trump.
So, what changed?
Did her politics change or did someone just give her a lot of money to do something else?
Just because she now works for Ukraine, doesn’t mean she’s against Trump…. and give her credit, she followed the law by registering…. 3/4 of DC are unregistered de facto lobbyists..
I received an email supporting Pompey.
Given that we already know that “Ukraine” has been the go-to target for DC official corruption for many decades, this person has simply signed herself on to officially be a merchant.
I hope that she knows what she is doing, and that she gets “gobs of money.” But, let the record show that Judas only received a very-paltry “thirty pieces of silver.”
I’m not sure those 30 pieces of silver in Jesus’s time was a paltry sum.
She joins former Mississippi governor and former GOP chair Haley Barbour as lobbyist for Ukraine. “Lobbyists” is a more sanitary name for money launderer.
I don’t know about anyone else, but I have never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever liked nor trusted her. Her (former?) husband solidified that.
What does she know?
I never trusted her from Day 1. Anyone who could be married to the total piece of pure sh*t that she was could not be trusted, and, frankly, DJT should have known that then.
Now, I am sure this thread will trigger the complaints about Chris LaCivita now, too.
I didn’t think she was as ridiculous as her husband. I was wrong.
Gee I wonder who’s paying her salary from Ukraine? Bet you it’s the American taxpayer.
I am just as non-plussed as Don, Jr. Back in 2016 I was a big fan of Kellyanne Conway, who I saw playing a major role in getting President Trump elected. In fact, I wrote about her defeating the Wicked Witch of the West, aka “the Cold-Eyed Queen Hillary and her Familiar Bill”:
https://walkingcreekworld.wordpress.com/2016/11/09/kellyanne-and-the-wicked-witch-of-the-west/
How could she have been drawn into the web of Ukrainian corruption?
$$. She’s too worn out to make money using the Harris method.
drawn in? please
Not impressed with the two people running Trump’s 2024 campaign. LaCivita has lots of GOPe ties and for all his experience has worked on only 1 or 2 winning campaigns. His campaigns have lost like 90% of the time. Susan Wiles ran Trump’s 2016 campaign operation in Florida. That’s why she’s in good with him. She worked for a couple of years with DeSantis in his first term then he fired her. Her experience is all in running state of Florida campaigns. Never has run a national campaign.
The strategy of having Trump basically do little for the 2 weeks leading up to to the DNC and then zero the week of the DNC giving Kamala almost exclusive visibility on the big stage seems a risky and frankly foolish strategy. She is running a billion dollar ad blitz in swing states and almost no Trump counter. She is branding herself and once established it won’t be possible to change it. Where are the Trump ads? If he waits until after Labor Day it will be too late. Early voting begins in swing states Sept. 22.
Notice that nobody from Trump’s winning 2016 campaign, a case study in how to run a good campaign, is working on his 2024 campaign. Foolish.
Trump is working. He’s doing a lot of local interviews in the battle ground states. Away from the main stream media. He’s also helping the House and Senate candidates. Just because you can’t see everything he is doing. doesn’t mean he’s not busy.
Trump’s not the same business type that’s never held elected office, like he was 8 years ago.
This time I’d load up on solid legal professionals, who can talk to the public at large.
“that some of the former president’s family members are pushing for her return.” I guess Don, Jr., has your ear, and your son, Barron (Melania), but please don’t bring in the rest of your family.
She quit on Trump in 2020 because of chaotic family issues. Also, her former husband is a complete whack job. She did a good job in 2016, but she should have been dumped much sooner when her husband acted like a jackass.
That bo tox will only last just so long ya know. Ask pelosi, she knows.
Kellyanne (and Bannon) were added to the 2016 campaign very late in the game as a result of a financial support deal that Jared and Ivanka negotiated with Robert and Rebekah Mercer. They switched their support from Cruz after the convention.
I believed then and still believe now that Kellyanne was a white house leaker that likely was working with Mike Pence behind the scenes as a big back stabber
and I think Trump knows and thats why she was not in his 2024 campaign this time around.
so i am not shocked to learn that now that MAGA money is no longer flowing she turned to taking swamp money (again? still?)
Donald J Trump is LOSING money, and these grifters are all about raping the taxpayers.
This makes me sick.
He is worth more than ever.
Trump knows he’s going to lose money, but so far he’s willing to do it anyway.
Right off the bat, he needs the best personal security team he can get/buy.
U.SSS is at least inept, if not dangerous in their present form. It’ll take time to improve.
The situation in Montana was very curious, where his scheduled plane was grounded right before the rally.
Fortunately he could bring up another, quickly.
Show Me The Money!

There is a word for a woman like that.
It was a USA article, give me a break. I am going to give her the benefit of the doubt until I see more. She took a lot of slings and arrows for Trump and she never backed down. Who knows how lawfare screwed her in the divorce. Unlike Jenna Ellis, I never heard her talk bad about Trump. Maybe I missed it, but I don’t think she deserves the attacks here until I see her dissing Trump. We have more important things to worry about and this is a nothing burger.
lobbying for Ukraine deserves attacks
no matter who the person is

Kellyanne Conway
So much of the present rot comes from Ukraine. Demonic.
I think Ukrainian corruption is a chicken-or-the-egg conundrum.
Good bye.
AR GOP is in turmoil right now. Establishment party standing committees are trying to end round the people’s actions implemented via the GOP State Convention. Much as MO GOP tried to undermine the grassroots just prior to the National Convention. Battle for the soul of the party is on. Gov Sarah Sanders pick for State Chairman is part of the inside play.
Kellyanne came from the Pence camp, never forger that. Snakes den together.,
No, she came from “Mercer camp” that switched in ’16 from loser Cruz to winner Trump.
War whore
Kelly Ann CONway.
What a nasty piece of work. The entire family is an excrement filled dumpster fire.
Gross and shameful.
No, she isn’t. Where does this all come from?
So many people turn on her on a dime. Why?
She was honest, the way I see it. She declared whatever needed to be transparently. She’s getting $600,000 to be a lobbyist. Does it matter if it’s for Ukraine, Israel, or France?
She didn’t hide it. I’m sure she knows she won’t be part of the Trump campaign. It doesn’t mean she won’t be around him. Why do you think there are lobbyists in the first place?
Unless there is something about her I don’t know, I don’t see anything wrong. She just got a job. You know exactly what it is, and what’s expected of her. Trump knows that too… because she told him and the rest of the universe. Chill.
Who pays the lobbyists?

Guess the gal needs cosmetic surgery maintenance. Who’s paying her? RINOs slobbering over her with anticipating glee with $$$ glitter in their eyes?This morning I admit to this remark mistake rushing to judgment with speculation. Shame on me.
She has not worked for the Trump campaign for quite a while. Or so I’d thought. So I don’t understand why the title of this article is worded the way it is. I’ll reserve any judgment about her until I know more. I think we’d do well not to make snap judgments when we don’t have all the facts.
The title “Now a Registered Lobbyist for Ukraine […]” is spot on!

It’s a blessing she’s out as obviously a “Money talks & b s walks” advocate.
Hope all of them are exposed for the dirtbags they are.
She helped Trump get elected in 2016. That goes a long way with me. I am sure she suffered being married to that lunatic asswipe, George Conway. It’s not for me to judge why she stayed married to him as long as she did.
Before “she helped Trump get elected in 2016”, she (and Steven Bannon) worked for Sen Ted Cruz’ (R-TX) failed presidential campaign, which was extensively funded by Robert and his daughter Rebekah Mercer.
After DJT was GOP nominee they switched to him and – in your words – “helped Trump” to rebuild his campaign: Paul Manafort was replaced by Bannon and Conway, David Bossie switched as deputy role as Rebekah took the leading role in PAC.
In short: Neither Bannon nor Conway have a MAGA grassroots movement affiliation!

Very thankful it appears she will have no role in the Trump campaign or administration
If I found her in my toilet I’d flush twice.
Those who work for the corrupt Ukraine government and vote for military equipment for the country have blood on their hands for encouraging the war rather than working for peace.
So basically, Conway is cashing out. Her insufferable husband always made me doubt Conway’s motives in Trump’s administration.
Once I heard the Ukraine story some days ago with Kellyanne, I just knew right there that it was pretty much over with any attachment she had with America first. Now THIS person right here, is a much more dubious person than Bannon.
For goodness sakes, her (former) husband was like Patient Zero for end-stage TDS.
Sometimes, the leopard never changes its spots.
what is her percentage of the take?
never cared for her, she was always a bi–h
The former Mrs. George Conway.
Go figure.
This discussion as to whether or not Conway is grifter should have been over when she had her dinner/lap dance with Gov Cuomo fresh off the Covid lockdowns and mopping up the retirement homes. She’s a political whore. Look no further than the state of her own family to see exactly who she is. She’s paper thin when it comes to integrity.
People who are elected by voters are politicians, consultants not. In ’16, President Trump’s Achilles heels mainly was
I doubt that Kellyanne Conway was a Cruz apologetic. It looks to me that she is more the “whoever pays the piper calls the tune” type. Recently she went on air to advise DJT to avoid personal attacks while she rant against Kamala Harris on FNN the other day (which fuels speculations about her intentions to “help Trump”.
In theory: she shouldn’t play such a prominent role (litmus: Ann Coulter/Nikki Haley/Christina Pushaw as Senior Counselor of POTUS Trump?)
George described DJT administration as a “shitshow in a dumpster fire” as he promoted attorney group “Check & Balances” formed in 11/18 with lots of FedSoc members on board. Irony: President Trump relied heavily on FedSoc recommendations to promote judges.
