Kellyanne Conway Resurfaces With Her Most Brazen Trump Lie Yet


Kellyanne Conway Resurfaces With Her Most Brazen Trump Lie Yet
"We never even heard of a such of a thing," she declared on Fox News.

Kellyanne Conway resurfaced on Fox News on Monday night to attack President Joe Biden’s administration over inflation and the ongoing supply chain issues.

And the former adviser to Donald Trump made one of her wildest claims yet in the process.

“I worked in that White House for four years,” she told Sean Hannity, referring to her time with Trump. “We never even heard of a such of a thing. There was no supply chain crisis. There was no inflation.”


Supply chain issues were one of the most dominant stories of 2020, when Trump was president and Conway was working in the White House as the start of the coronavirus pandemic triggered panic buying. That, in turn, caused nationwide shortages of everything from toilet paper to pasta, leading to empty shelves in supermarkets.

“During the initial months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. suffered one of the worst supply chain crises in modern history,” Tinglong Dai, a professor at Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, told Newswise, noting that many of the shortages lasted for months.

Not just toilet paper and pasta, but hand sanitizer, disinfectants and wipes, bleach, dishwasher soap, laundry soap... People started baking their own bread, because there was none on the store shelves. Which led to a shortage of baking yeast. Folks have already forgotten about that, and she knows it. Nothing to see there. Move along. Time to start refreshing people's memories.

they weren't paying any attention to what was happening in the reality world. They were all sucked into TFG's bizarro perpendicular universe, which only intersected reality at the point of profit and enrichment for themselves.

dysfunctionals around - because that was such an original plan that no one could resist.

I know! I'll go on Fox and lie about Biden and stroke Trump's ego.

Because that, too, is just so original. (but at least she'll have an audience)

Is at the core of Trumpism -- and by extension, today's Republican Party.

Brazen disprovable lies that formerly could have ended political careers have not only been normalized -- they are required to sustain the mindset and belief system on the right.

So, no Trump shortages, no supply chain issues- everything fine and rainbows and unicorns blowing bubbles out of their asses in the Trump wonderful, great years. Then all fell to crap with those Democrats.

I can completely believe that she never heard of such a thing.

I met a self-absorbed political hack who'd never heard of her own candidate's signature issue while at the party convention rallying support for him.

"Being a highly-placed paid employee of a politician" has nothing to do with that person's depth of (or lack of) knowledge. Or her native intelligence (or lack thereof).
