I don't trust him or KellyAnne at all. Neither of them are on our side. She's the DT staffer and staunch supporter, he's one of DT's harshest critics. But they are both still Republicans.

They are playing both sides, and will profit greatly when this is over.

Carville is a Dem and Matlin a Rep. and each sincere about their differences.

The Conways are both R's and are on the same team. They are playing us.

+1. After listening to Preet Bharara’s interview with a George Conway, I thought I might come away with some kind of respect for Conway but I did not. I think he’s simply a pompous ass who is disappointed with his party’s blind ass kissing cult following of the MF. However, if the MF were just slightly less abhorrent than he is, Conway would be all in. I don’t trust him at all.

The largest book advance of all will be for Kellyanne when she is done with Trump.

She sold herself for money and fame, first with Cruz totally against Trump, and then switched over for more money and fame when Trump looked more favorable in the campaigns.

Her loyalty is for sale.

Was/is it irony when Kellyanne prostituted herself for money for Cruz or when she prostitutes herself for money for Trump?

Though when you are anonymous... you can get away with lying. I'm thinking of Joe Klein, who was outed for Primary Colors... I think he did his best to hide that he was the anonymous author.

Publicity is what KellyAnne does. She's crunched the numbers and determined a device and plotline to give the Conway name marquee value.

Two years from now they will have a reality show, a trio of bestselling books, TV talk show appearances, maybe a movie cameo.
