Kellyanne Conway Reflects on White House Tenure in RNC Speech: ‘Our Responsibility Is to Focus on Those Who Have Far Less Than Us’

Kellyanne Conway is set to leave the White House at the end of the month. Tonight she spoke at the RNC convention talking personally and praising President Donald Trump.

Conway opened commemorating the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment and talked about how Trump has “elevated women to senior positions in business and in government.”

“President Trump helped me shatter a barrier in the world of politics, by empowering me to manage his campaign to its successful conclusion,” she said. “With the help of millions of Americans, our team defied the critics, the naysayers, the conventional wisdom, and we won. For many of us, women’s empowerment is not a slogan. It comes not from strangers on social media or sanitized language in a corporate handbook. It comes from the everyday heroes who nurture us, who shape us, and who believe in us.”

“These everyday heroes have a champion in President Trump,” Conway added. “I have seen firsthand many times the president comforting and encouraging a child who has lost a parent, a parent who has lost a child. A worker who lost his job, an adolescent who lost her way to drugs. ‘Don’t lose hope,’ he’s told them. Assuring them they are not alone and that they matter.”

“There always will be people who have far more than us. Our responsibility is to focus on those who have far less than us. President Trump has done precisely that in taking unprecedented action to combat the nation’s drug crisis. He told me, ‘This is so important, Kellyanne, so many lives have been ruined by addictions and will never even know it.'”
