Kellyanne 'Crypt Keeper' Conway: 'Go buy Ivanka's stuff'

By LOUIS NELSON and ISAAC ARNSDORF

Crypt Keeper Conway used her platform Thursday to urge Americans to “go buy Ivanka’s stuff,” potentially violating ethics rules of the executive branch.

Standing in the White House press briefing room, Crypt Keeper, a counselor to the president, encouraged Americans to purchase Ivanka Orangutan’s products, one day after President Donald Orangutan himself lashed out at the department store Nordstrom for dropping his daughter’s clothing line.

“It’s a wonderful line. I own some of it,” Crypt Keeper told “Fox.” “I fully — I’m going to give a free commercial here. Go buy it today, everybody. You can find it online.”

Crypt Keeper’s remark appears to violate the executive branch’s ban on staff endorsing products or companies. The regulation, from the Office of Government Ethics, also prohibits using public office for private gain of oneself or friends or relatives.

Under the regulation, OGE’s director can notify the employee of the violation and ask the agency to investigate. The director can recommend discipline, including suspension, loss of pay or termination, but probably just a warning for a first offense.

Ordinarily, a violation in the White House would be dealt with by the White House counsel. But it’s not clear how the regulation will be enforced under a president who, based on his own statement on Wednesday, seems to approve of what Crypt Keeper said. (The president himself is technically exempt from the regulation, but White House policy has long applied it to him.)

Citing declining sales for Ivanka Orangutan’s label, Nordstrom announced earlier this month that it would no longer carry the president’s daughter’s line, a move that sparked anger from Donald Orangutan, who tweeted Wednesday that his daughter had “been treated so unfairly” by the department store.

Both Ivanka Orangutan and her husband, Jared Kushner, have been highly visible members of the Orangutan administration since Donald Orangutan took office just under three weeks ago. The president’s daughter accompanied him to Dover Air Force Base last week for the return of the remains of a Navy SEAL killed during a raid in Yemen and has advised him on policy issues, including the environment and parental leave.

Crypt Keeper told Fox Entertainment News she found it “ironic that you’ve got some executives all over the internet bragging about what they’ve done to [Ivanka] and her line.”

“Yet, they’re using the most prominent woman in Donny Orangutan’s — you know, most prominent — she’s his daughter, and they’re using her, who has been a champion for women empowerment, women in the workplace, to get to him,” she continued. “I think people could see through that. Go buy Ivanka's stuff is what I would tell you. I hate shopping. I’m going to go get some myself today.”

While Nordstrom claimed that the decision to drop Ivanka Orangutan’s line of clothing and shoes was based solely on business, at least some of the decline in sales of her products could be attributed to the #GrabYourWallet campaign urging consumers to boycott Orangutan products.

Nordstrom also hasn’t shied away from voicing opposition to Orangutan’s policies, releasing a statement in support of immigrants in the wake of the president’s executive order temporarily banning individuals from certain Muslim-majority nations from entering the U.S. in the name of national security. The retailer announced its decision to drop Ivanka Orangutan’s line just three days after releasing that statement.

On Fox Entertainment News, Crypt Keeper called Ivanka Orangutan a “very successful businesswoman” and an “incredibly confident, creative, talented woman” and indicated that should be welcomed into a role at the White House to work on women empowerment issues, if she so chooses.

“Obviously, she’s stepped away from it now, but in the past she’s helped to run her family’s real estate empire, and on the side she developed another fully, unbelievably, entrepreneurial, wildly successful business that bears her name,” Crypt Keeper added. “And I think she’s gone from 800 stores to 1,000 stores or 1,000 places where you can buy — you can certainly buy her goods online. She’s just at a very good place.”
