'We Feel That Way': Kellyanne Conway Confirms Trump Thinks Intelligence Report is Political

by Justin Baragona | 8:52 pm, January 6th, 2017

Following President-elect Donald Trump meeting with intelligence leaders to be briefed on their report showing Russia meddled in the election, adviser and soon-to-be presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway appeared on The O’Reilly Factor to discuss.

Speaking to guest host Eric Bolling, Conway talked about whether she felt the intelligence community and the gathering of intel has become politicized.

“We feel that way as well,” Conway said, agreeing with Bolling’s comment that it was a political report. “We certainly don’t want intelligence to interfere with politics and we don’t want politics to interfere with intelligence.” Earlier in the day, the New York Times quoted Trump as saying this was all a “political witch hunt.”

She went on to slam Hillary Clinton as being a poor candidate as being the real reason she lost, not Russian interference.

She was also asked by Bolling if Trump was going to make sweeping changes in the intelligence community’s leadership. following up reports that the incoming POTUS is looking to revamp the top spy agency.

Using the Trump business model, 5,000,000,000 - 8,000,000,000 = + 6,000,000,000.

If you do the math and come up with -3,000,000,000, your calculation was "political."

If only it were so... But, somehow the media insists that The Donald should have an opinion, the most important opinion, about the Kremlin Hack.

It's simply more of the "False Equivalency" thing... His falsehoods are equal to the real world's facts.

I don't give a shit how she feels. She needs to either put up the evidence or shut the fuck up.

You have made it glaringly apparent that won't happen in the Trump administration. Hint: it should, it really, really should.
