White House counselor Kellyanne Conway has positioned herself as one of the most memorable (and most hated) members of Donald Trump’s administration. And while she may feel that she’s made quite a dent for herself in the Republican Party, a certain video from her past has come back to haunt her and could ruin everything.
In her work serving a GOP president, Conway has positioned herself as passionately pro-life, which she recently solidified by lying about late-term abortions when she falsely accused Gov. Ralph Northam of supporting “infanticide” during a recent interview with Fox News.
So given that Conway has recently reminded everyone of her pro-life stance, many Americans are now wondering why she would have joked about killing babies in 2007 thanks to a video of Conway that has recently resurfaced.
Twelve years ago, it was discovered that Conway joked about performing an abortion “with a gun.” Conway made this comment in a July 13, 2007 speech to the College Republican National Committee, where she went off on “gender studies feminists” over the issue of abortion “as if it’s a number one issue with normal women.” Conway said:
I always love to say to those gender studies people, if you say ‘abortion’ or ‘stem cells’ or ‘guns’ one more time, I’m going to perform one of those on you because, with a gun, because you, by implication, are suggesting that women can’t do the math.”
Now, that certainly doesn’t sound like anything that should come out of the mouth of someone who claims to care about “life” and unborn fetuses. You can watch the resurfaced footage of Conway below:
Conway has been trying to carve out her position in the GOP for over a decade, but the surfacing of this video may just be the end of her career.
