#KellyCards: Twitter Users Go Crazy With Kellyanne Conway's 'Unreal' Flashcards
"Surely this is what Twitter was invented for."
Jul 13, 2017
In an interview on Fox News Wednesday night, presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway used flash cards to deny allegations that the Trump administration has colluded with Russia.
"This is to help all the people at home," Conway said, holding up her props. "What's the conclusion? Collusion? No. We don't have that yet. I see illusion and delusion."
\u201cGuys. I'm just seeing this. Flash cards? She used flash cards?! This is unreal.\u201d— Kyle Griffin (@Kyle Griffin) 1499917134
Critics characterized the performance as "full Sesame Street," and Twitter users quickly seized upon the golden Photoshop opportunity.

An Urgent Message From Our Co-Founder
Dear Common Dreams reader, The U.S. is on a fast track to authoritarianism like nothing I've ever seen. Meanwhile, corporate news outlets are utterly capitulating to Trump, twisting their coverage to avoid drawing his ire while lining up to stuff cash in his pockets. That's why I believe that Common Dreams is doing the best and most consequential reporting that we've ever done. Our small but mighty team is a progressive reporting powerhouse, covering the news every day that the corporate media never will. Our mission has always been simple: To inform. To inspire. And to ignite change for the common good. Now here's the key piece that I want all our readers to understand: None of this would be possible without your financial support. That's not just some fundraising cliche. It's the absolute and literal truth. We don't accept corporate advertising and never will. We don't have a paywall because we don't think people should be blocked from critical news based on their ability to pay. Everything we do is funded by the donations of readers like you. Will you donate now to help power the nonprofit, independent reporting of Common Dreams? Thank you for being a vital member of our community. Together, we can keep independent journalism alive when it’s needed most. - Craig Brown, Co-founder |
