It has become a daily dose of deflection, sidestep and and refuse to answer the question. Today a member of the press asked Kellyanne Conway, Counselor to Donald Trump, a simple question about why the President revoked John Brennan’s security clearance and somehow she turned it into a rant about how she thinks we (the press and the public) should stop caring what this President says or does. Huh?
“Why is everybody so obsessed with the President of the United States that they can’t begin or finish a sentence without saying his name five times. It’s kind of weird.”
The only thing weird is that statement. We here at News & Guts sometimes get comments about why don’t we just stop covering what Trump says. That is essentially what Conway is saying too. Not happening.
