Kellyanne Conway: Feminister är emot män
Donald Trumps rådgivare Kellyanne Conway vill inte kalla sig själv feminist eftersom hon anser att feminism handlar om att vara emot män och för abort. Det sa hon under under konferensen CPAC där konservativa från hela USA samlas, rapporterar amerikanska medier.
– Jag är varken emot män eller för abort, sa Conway och tillade att hon ser sig själv som ett resultat av de val hon gjort, snarare än ett ”offer för omständigheter”.
– Jag uppfostrades till en väldigt stark och självständig kvinna utan att någon någonsin nämnde ordet feminist, sa hon enligt CBS News.

Kellyanne Elizabeth Conway (née Fitzpatrick; born January 20, 1967) is an American political activist currently serving as Counselor to the President for Donald Trump and has also been a Republican Party campaign manager, strategist, and pollster who was formerly president and CEO of The Polling Company Inc./Woman Trend.
In 2016, Conway endorsed Ted Cruz in the Republican presidential primaries and chaired a pro-Cruz political action committee, Keep the Promise I, which ran advertisements critical of then Republican candidate Donald Trump. On July 1, 2016, after Cruz withdrew from the race, Donald Trump appointed her as a senior advisor, and later campaign manager to his campaign. She was the first woman to successfully run a presidential campaign. On December 22, 2016, Trump announced that Conway would join his administration as Counselor to the President, serving alongside Steve Bannon, assistant to the President and White House chief strategist.
Since Trump's inauguration, Conway has been embroiled in a series of controversies, including the coining of the phrase "alternative facts" to defend untruths, the seeming invention of the non-event the "Bowling Green massacre" to further an argument, leaking negative stories about White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer and the public endorsement of commercial products associated with the president's daughter Ivanka Trump. As a result, a number of media outlets have called her credibility into question, with some refusing her requests for one on one interviews.
