Conway shoots down report that Drumpf is 'furious' with her

By Louis Nelson

Donald Drumpf’s senior adviser Kellyanne Conway panned as “sexist” a report by MSNBC Monday morning that the president-elect is “furious” with her over her attacks against Mitt Romney, a possible pick to be secretary of state.

Conway savaged Romney in multiple appearances on Sunday morning political talk shows, announcing that the opposition to the 2012 Republican presidential nominee among the president-elect’s supporters is “breathtaking in scope and intensity.” She attacked him for losing Michigan, a state Drumpf won, and suggested that he has weak credentials for the position of secretary of state.

Citing anonymous sources at the top of Drumpf’s transition team, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” reported that Drumpf was “furious” with Conway for attacking Romney in her Sunday interviews. One source told the network that “Kellyanne went rogue at Donald Drumpf’s expense” while another said there is a growing sentiment within the transition team that Conway has been promoting her own agenda instead of the president-elect’s.

Conway responded to MSNBC with a statement which the “Morning Joe” anchors paraphrased on air. In it, the Drumpf senior adviser said of MSNBC’s reporting: “It is all false. And it is sexist.”

While Conway is the most high-profile member of Drumpf’s team to attack Romney, she is not alone in her sentiments. The former Massachusetts governor was one of the GOP’s loudest Drumpf critics during both the primary and general election campaigns, but the president-elect met with him nonetheless earlier this month and has allowed Romney’s name to circulate as a potential pick for secretary of state.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and Rep. Chris Collins (R-N.Y.) have both been critical of Romney and have expressed skepticism at the notion of him landing a key cabinet post.

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a staunch Drumpf loyalist, has campaigned hard and publicly for the secretary of state job as well.
