What a world we live in...

Kellyanne Conway suggests Obama could have spied on Donald Trump through a microwave

And although it looks like an Onion headline, it's 2017 and the link goes to The Independent...

In far happier news (I'm pointedly ignoring British politics) here is the new Doctor Who trailer:

Kellyanne Conway suggests Obama could have spied on Donald Trump through a microwave

You know, if it didn't have so many horrific consequences it would be funny.

Yes, I don't know which possibility is worse - that she actually believes it, or that she's expecting people to believe complete rubbish...
elisi: Master, thumbs up (Master - good by charmax)

Oooh, I am saving that one for later! :D

People like Kelly Anne Conway make me embarrassed to be American. A microwave? Seriously? I'll bet the CIA wishes you really could spy on people through their microwaves--it might save them a lot of work.

DW looks fun. Can't believe it's only in a month!

Yeah, it's very strange to have conspiracy theorists in charge...

And DW is something to look forward to. :D

It's so horrible to have such a bunch of liars in charge of government. They're not even being subtle about it. They're brazen.

DW will be a welcome distraction, that's for sure!

I wish she would stop spilling state secrets. Now we have to move on to toaster ovens.

*Goes to google what a toaster oven actually IS*

(I have seen them mentioned for years, but they don't exist over here)

ETA: OK, apparently they DO exist over here. But they're not common.

I vacillate between thinking Conway is just a vapid moron or also a vapid sociopathic moron. It's probably both.

Yeah.. does she actually believe all the nonsense she spouts? Like, surely that's not possible....

[identity profile] geekslave.livejournal.com 2017-03-18 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know if it's better if she does or doesn't - either way she sucks.

Very true.

But she also has one of the worst jobs. So there's that I guess.

[identity profile] geekslave.livejournal.com 2017-03-19 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Definitely a horrible job, but one she does voluntarily so can't feel sorry for her.

Oh not suggesting we should feel sorry for her, but... She is not in an enviable position. Like, she is one of the top people in the country, but would you swap with her?

Not in a million years! LOL.

I wish I could do an interview with her. I'd say point blank to her face "What is wrong with you? And before you say 'everything', let me be more specific: what did you do to make your soul so withered and rotten?"

She wouldn't answer...

I mean, it would be great, but we must not be as deluded as she is...

A microwave? Seriously? Just....ugh...

"We know this is a fact of modern life." Do we know this, Kellyanne... do we really...

Can't wait to stan for Bill!!

Not sure what Conway is smoking... but I certainly don't want any of it...!

She probably meant TV's but got confused because they look sort of similar, well, not so much nowadays, but back when they were both little boxes with glass fronts and a plug attached....

Maybe they're all just on a ton of drugs... (I mean, some of them certainly are.)
