Kellyanne says Americans should 'go buy Ivanka's stuff' in White House interview

[mrclose]

So, what are you really saying, then?

How's this ... Guess what everyone’s talkiing about today? Ivanka’s clothing line.

A million dollars worth of free publicity!

...and she's SOOO freakin' beautiful!!!

An interesting twist from the Nordstrom warehouse. Maybe they are just trying to bring jobs back to America and Kellyanne is trying to push Chinese made products?

[Emjay]

At what point does a "counselor" become a "consigliere?"

Kellyanne is beginning to grow on me.  She is passionate and emotional but kind of endearing.  She shouldn't have touted Ivanka's stuff but I forgive her.

Apparently, retailers are conducting a boycott of all Trump products which is a little tacky but I don't care.  I don't care a whit about whether Ivanka's stuff sells or not.

This whole thing is so unimportant in the scheme of things that I'm ashamed to be discussing it.

[Emjay]

Is there anything this woman won't stoop to doing for Donald? She has no soul.

That is an outrageous thing to say and you should be ashamed.

Kellyann can be a little over the top in her emotional defenses of Trump and that might indicate that she lacks good taste but that she lacks a soul is ridiculous.

Hyperbole often weakens points one is trying to make.

[Emjay]

Speaking of redheads, I can't believe they made another Jumanji movie but at least it has Amelia Pond in it.

I did not know that.  I'm still cringing over the first one.

So many remakes... I wonder if idiocracy has entered the creative field... how many times can they remarke fairy tales ... and Grimm doesn't get a darn bit of royalties.

[Emjay]

I said I thought Trump would be impeached in 2 years.  I think I might be wrong....he may not last 6 months.....

You're gonna impeach the guy because of his daughter and Kellyann?  I did not realize that was grounds for impeachment.

We didn't impeach Obama over Michelle's idiocy.

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

That is an outrageous thing to say and you should be ashamed.

This is how perverse the reality distortion field is for modern conservatism, Trump uses his office to attack Nordstrom's, KellyAnne joins in, and I'm the one who should be ashamed?


LOL

[Emjay]

You know...during the campaign he kept himself in the news daily...like you say.  I expected him to take a quieter approach to the presidency....but I think you are right.  His persona demands that he be in the headlines daily if not hourly.  I agree with a lot of what he's done to this point...but geez...I'm sick of seeing him on the news...and the friggen Twitter tweets....it's getting old really fast.

Trump will always be in the news but that's not totally his fault.  He has done a lot during his first 3 weeks and all of it is newsworthy and most of it is good.

If you plan to continue to oppose Trump on the basis of his tweets and his personality, you will be doing the country and the Republicans no good at all.

I've been criticized here for comparing his first weeks to what Hillary's first weeks would have been but I think it's a valid point.

Just because we are all sophisticated and classy is no excuse for slamming Trump because he is not up to our standards in that regard.

[Emjay]

I agree, I was just puzzled as to why Kellyanne would go out of her way to tout Ivanka's clothing line. Pretty bizarre IMO.

Kellyanne did not go out of her way to tout Ivanka's clothing line.  I actually saw it.  She was responding to questions about why Nordstrum's chose to ban the line from their stores.

I've been chair-bound for a month after an accident and I've watched a lot of TV.

[Emjay]

Had someone from a Dem administration, everyone of us would be screaming that the person deserved to be fired.

Surely the House Ethics Committee can find something better to do.

Kellyanne is beginning to grow on me.  She is passionate and emotional but kind of endearing.  She shouldn't have touted Ivanka's stuff but I forgive her.

Whereas I see her as somebody who represents Trump's tight inner circle -- that group of people who will support Trump no matter what; and Trump keeps them around for that very reason.  It's what narcissists do.

I've seen that dynamic in play before, and it's never a force for good.

If Kellyanne were any sort of real counselor, she not only would have kept her mouth shut, she'd be working hard to keep Trump's thumbs away from his phone.

Instead ... well, you see how she is.

[Emjay]

Spicer resents the implication that the Trump administration is trying to push ivanka's clothing line:

Spicer is the grownup in the room.  Of course, the press despises him.

[Emjay]

Not under his purview IIRC...its strictly a House matter.

Interesting though you seem to think he'd sweep it under the rug if he was able to investigate it.

Sweep what under the rug.  The rug is already overloaded with real crap done by Hillary and Obama.  I seriously doubt that Sessions would bother with the speck of dust.

[Emjay]

So he'll show his true, corrupt, nature early then.

You would denigrate a fine man over something somebody thinks he MIGHT do.

Wow.  Is Warren your mommy?

Creative inspiration comes from God.  And I've noticed that the Hollyweird leftists are all out of ideas these days, not surprisingly.  They don't "do" God much, if at all.

Other than race-based/biased flicks and tired old retreads of the same theme ...like yet another King Kong (skull island) remake.... they are running on empty when it comes to creative new ideas for film.  But that's just my view.

LOL

Laugh all you want but you are the one who should be ashamed for making an unconscionable remark about a person because you don't like her.

[Idiot]

I'm not for Trump being impeached.  I just feel with the current political climate that more than likely he will be impeached.  Look at what the 9th circuit did....laws and sanity don't seem to matter anymore.

Actually....they do matter now....even more than ever.  The left was smacked down last November.  The idiots on the left are the minority, despite how they have managed to make it appear.  Unless Trump does something that equates to high treason or seriously threatening to the nation, I just don't see an impeachment in his future.  Especially not with a majority control of Congress by Republicans.  Let the morons on the left dream about it though.  It's all they have now (their dreams).

Trump will not be impeached.  Not unless he does something impeachable ... and that does not include that some people don't like him.  Even people on this so-called GOP forum think they are far superior to Trump because he's not sophisticated enough for them.

Here's a clue.  Sending tacky tweets is not grounds for impeachment.  He has the House and the Senate and they seem to be rallying around him.  They have pushed through all his cabinet appointees after the Dems have finished their hissy fits.

Give it up, y'all and hope that he doesn't make a serious mistake.  That would not be good for any of us.
