Kellyanne With No Plan
Shocking News. Jared couldn’t handle it all, so Kellyanne will take over.
Take a deep breath and move away from sharp objects.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that pollster Kellyanne Conway, a counselor to President Trump, would oversee White House efforts to combat the opioid overdose epidemic.
However: The White House has not yet released a strategy on how to approach the crisis, nor has a head of the Office of National Drug Control Policy been appointed.
Have you looked at her eyes or heard her speak? Do you really think she should be within fifty yards of drug policy?
People are dying because Big Pharm fostered a profit project and the best you have is Kellyanne with No Plan?
Even more worrisome – “More than 64,000 people died in the US of drug overdoses in 2016, largely from opioids such as heroin, fentanyl, and prescription painkillers,” and you’re just now getting started?
There are two kinds of people Trump puts in charge of things: people who want to destroy those things (see virtually all of his Cabinet), and his family and cronies who don’t have a clue what they’re doing. At least the second category seems to destroy things a bit more slowly….
1I’m sure she’ll dazzle us with alternative facts.
2Please, do not look into her eyes. Remember what Count Dracula can do when you look into his eyes?
Kellyanne is like that, but worse.
3The first Trump appointment to at least give an appearance of experience in the area she oversees. And as in all things Trump, in this case, that’s not a good thing.
4Rick, somehow being the face of opioid induced constipation is the sum total of Dotard45 maladministration qualifications. You’re right on the appearance thing; she may be over qualified.
5What? Jared was so brilliant at making peace in the Middle East that we no longer have to staff the State Department. He should have been able to solve the opioid crisis during his lunch break. With one hand tied behind his back.
Well, at least we’re in good hands now.
6It’s going perfectly as planned, typical Conservative Policy. Kellyanne, Jared? What better way ‘to shrink government to the size where we can drown it in a bathtub’.
Then Privatize government $$$ and wait for the $$$ kickbacks, errr um corporate campaign contributions to start pouring in! $$$
And when the economy and government eventually fail, causing devastating misery, Republicans will ‘send us prayers’ and blame it on the Democrats.
7Win win, works every time!
Propaganda Barbie is sorta qualified for the job. Having driven people who are forced to deal with her to substance abuse for decades, she can definitely recognize the symptoms. Of course, I’m not sure how inflicting her on the people who need to address the problem is going to help. Wait. Not only will current addicts keep using, but she’ll deliver a whole new crop of customers to pharmaceutical companies.
8Damn. I started this out with the intention of hopefully being funny. It ain’t.
Timothy O’Leary was not available?

10Kelly Anne Conway does look like a meth-head, talks like one too (I once worked with one, scary).
Great. The president who sniffs like a coke addict will work with the woman who looks and sounds like a meth head to combat a drug epidemic. Yeah, that’ll work wonders!
11Too busy looking for a place to hide to comment.
