George Conway says we'll be hearing much more from anonymous author of 2018 NYT op-ed soon

[highplainsdem]

Conway tweeted this a couple of minutes ago:

I had an amazing conversation this morning with ... Anonymous.

Anonymous is a true patriot.

We'll all be hearing a lot more from this person very, very soon.


https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/05/opinion/trump-white-house-anonymous-resistance.html

And yes, I remember that there was some speculation in 2018 that Anonymous was Kellyanne Conway.

[MontanaMama]

1. Anonymous better get a move on.

After the election won’t matter.

[Harker]

5. Still timely for book writers.

For a while.

[bucolic_frolic]

46. But could neuter Trump's Lame Duck months

If patriots of al stripes unite, even against Supreme Collusion rulings, it could freeze Trump and Trumpism in its tracks and grease their exit.

[Sherman A1]

2. We will see

but I am not holding my breath.

[Backseat Driver]

12. Nor I, but the "anticipation" like the ketchup bottle is delicious!

Shake and shake the ketchup bottle
None will come and then a lot'll!

[rso]

3. Conway

His wife perhaps ?

[PatSeg]

11. I read Anonymous's book

and I'm 99.9% sure it was not Kellyanne. The author is well educated and intellectual. Kellyanne is shallow and superficial.

[PJMcK]

24. Exactly this

But we could bet wrong, I guess.

Regardless, if Anonymous has something to add, I'd remind them that the election is next Tuesday and they shouldn't wait too long.

[PatSeg]

28. Yes, he/she has been awfully quiet for

a long time. I really had expected more after reading the book. Maybe it is coming.

[Harker]

14. A true patriot?

Unless she was working tirelessly against Trumpsky while lying to the people for him, I doubt it.

[chuckperth]

42. So....

George got off his couch/bed and is going to talk to Kellyanne in her wing of the house? Cool, cool.

I highly doubt she is the one. If she is, she is the undercover cop that got in too deep; did all the blow, banged all the hookers, killed all the hookers, and stashed cash before the regulars rolled in for the round up. I doubt any prosecuter would put that cop on the stand, but, I would probably read her report.

[LiberalLovinLug]

47. It is NOT Kelly Anne Conway

Why would anyone ever WANT it to be her either?

Because IF it is her, she has done waaaaaaaaay more to help Trump, and Bush before him, than almost anyone. She has lied and coined the term "alternate facts" to somehow justify hers and Trump's lies. So already, she has gone way down into Trumps pants, to ever make up for it. I'd never buy some book if she put it out after to rake in her "reward" for putting up with him.

Why would she? She'd be hated by both sides. No one would trust her ever again.
No, she will continue on stoking the far right movement. Guesting on Fox News. Helping to create the next Bush or Trump. Feeding the masses fake news and alternate facts. There will be lots of employment for Republican attack dogs during Biden's first term. To start with the SCOTUS. If Joe dares to add to the court, she will go stark raving mad in the media.

[GusBob]

4. How very very soon?

Before or after the election?

Ima guess after when all the pointing of fingers happens

[Autumn]

6. Conway it's like this. If it's a day or two before the election or after. It's too fucking late,

so don't give me that Anonymous is a true patriot bullshit. Go home to your wife.

[cwydro]

7. These teases are always nonsense.

Didn’t we have at least two last week?

[maxsolomon]

8. Sure we will.

Friday night after COB?

[PatSeg]

9. There's not much time left

He/she better hurry it up. A lot of people had been wondering what happened to anonymous and finally gave up.

[lagomorph777]

10. Oh, so it was Kellyanne Conway.

Cool, sis.

Would've been nice if you'd acted courageously a lot sooner.

[kansasobama]

13. Do not do a Bolton

It is so late, if he/she wants to come out, it better be a prominent person, who can call a major press conference. If you hit Thursday or Friday, it is way way too late.

[crickets]

25. It may be too late already. As it is, the coyness has worn very thin. nt

[Dem2]

15. Do these things ever pan out?

I guess we'll see...

[Yavin4]

16. George, nobody cares about your pillow talk with Kellyanne. n/t

[bullwinkle428]

17. Kellyanne throwing a late "Hail Mary" in an effort to save her pathetic ass.

[JI7]

18. If it's your wife she is still a piece of shit

[MoonchildCA]

20. People are voting now, KellyAnne-onymous.

Just do it already...

[Mike Nelson]

21. Well...

... there is not much time left... knee-jerk reaction is that it would be Kellyanne. She was my first guess, with spouse helping as a writer... True, she has no real loyalty to Crooked Donald... but I remember her pundit days as Kellyanne Fitzpatrick and I can't picture her as a "true patriot"...

[madaboutharry]

22. It isn't Kellyanne.

She is a full on member of the cult. George Conway is quoted as saying his wife is in a cult. It isn't her.

[Buckeyeblue]

23. I don't think the post-Trump tell all books will do well

Except for the one that is written by the attorney that prosecutes him. Honestly, we know he is a horses ass. We know he's not very bright. And I don't want to read any more about him when he's gone.

That's just me though.

[calimary]

41. And me, Buckeyeblue.

One of my biggest takeaways from the Watergate era was “Don’t But Books By Crooks.”

So frankly I don’t give a rat’s ass WHO’S writing some new mea culpa. They’re NOT getting MY money. I wouldn’t have them in my house. Even after fumigation.

I can get excerpts here and elsewhere enough to get the gist of what’s in whatever book it is.

[OnDoutside]

26. Pillow Talk ?

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

27. Assuming, like so many of you are saying and it is indeed Methy-Anne Gollum. She can

kindly go fuck herself. I guess we'll take her "gossip", if it helps. But other than that......

[ok_cpu]

29. Not a patriot at this point. Not in my book, at least.

But someone who sees the writing on the wall and has a vested interest in showing some daylight between them and the orange one.

[Kid Berwyn]

30. Whoever Anonymous is, thanks!

That essay gave me hope when the thing and the situation looked bad.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

31. A "true patriot" would know that if a leader's orders are illegal or so immoral that they must be

undermined, anonymous moves behind the scenes are not the solution.

From the original op-ed:

Don’t get me wrong. There are bright spots that the near-ceaseless negative coverage of the administration fails to capture: effective deregulation, historic tax reform, a more robust military and more. But these successes have come despite — not because of — the president’s leadership style, which is impetuous, adversarial, petty and ineffective.

Garbage, all around.

[Lock him up.]

49. "effective deregulation" screw the environment, "historic tax reform" for the already rich

"a more robust military" = who really needs more than 10,000 nukes?

"and more" = like who cares if the permafrost is released 100%??

[Roland99]

32. Fuck that Federalist fuck

[dalton99a]

34. +1

[Codeine]

33. Sounds like some of our own posters.

I don’t think it’ll end any better for George than it did for any of them.

[dalton99a]

35. Anonymous tweeted this:

[Paper Roses]

36. If this is important to the Biden campaign, soon is to late, it needs to be now! n/t

[Marcuse]

37. After the election they all will be claiming to be Anonymous.

[dlk]

38. George Conway is a member of the Federalist Society & thinks Amy Barrett is just grea

Enough said

[dalton99a]

[Sogo]

39. If it turns out to be Kelly Anne, it will have zero impact.

Who would believe her as "trying to steer him from his worst instincts?" Hell, she FEEDS them!

am reliably informed that @benjaminwittes should have his old baby cannon ready for this afternoon when an anonymous person will step out of the shadows

[brooklynite]

52. Ditto David Corn...

[Nevilledog]

54. Yeah.... Saw his tweet saying 4 pm

[melman]

44. George Conway should stick his scoops in Rick Wilson's confederate cooler and F right off

This guy supported Amy Coney Barrett ffs. He should be permanently cancelled.

[Sloumeau]

45. If Anonymous doesn't do a big reveal before November 3rd, Anonymous gets 0 credit. nt

[DeminPennswoods]

50. Maybe Anonymous has been hiding in

Al Capone's vault.

[brooklynite]

51. UPDATE: Stand by this afternoon.....
