Conway tweeted this a couple of minutes ago:

Anonymous is a true patriot.
We'll all be hearing a lot more from this person very, very soon.

And yes, I remember that there was some speculation in 2018 that Anonymous was Kellyanne Conway.

PatSeg
(46,794 posts)and I'm 99.9% sure it was not Kellyanne. The author is well educated and intellectual. Kellyanne is shallow and superficial.

Regardless, if Anonymous has something to add, I'd remind them that the election is next Tuesday and they shouldn't wait too long.
PatSeg
(46,794 posts)a long time. I really had expected more after reading the book. Maybe it is coming.
Harker
(13,874 posts)Unless she was working tirelessly against Trumpsky while lying to the people for him, I doubt it.
George got off his couch/bed and is going to talk to Kellyanne in her wing of the house? Cool, cool.
I highly doubt she is the one. If she is, she is the undercover cop that got in too deep; did all the blow, banged all the hookers, killed all the hookers, and stashed cash before the regulars rolled in for the round up. I doubt any prosecuter would put that cop on the stand, but, I would probably read her report.

(14,153 posts)Why would anyone ever WANT it to be her either?
Because IF it is her, she has done waaaaaaaaay more to help Trump, and Bush before him, than almost anyone. She has lied and coined the term "alternate facts" to somehow justify hers and Trump's lies. So already, she has gone way down into Trumps pants, to ever make up for it. I'd never buy some book if she put it out after to rake in her "reward" for putting up with him.
Why would she? She'd be hated by both sides. No one would trust her ever again.
No, she will continue on stoking the far right movement. Guesting on Fox News. Helping to create the next Bush or Trump. Feeding the masses fake news and alternate facts. There will be lots of employment for Republican attack dogs during Biden's first term. To start with the SCOTUS. If Joe dares to add to the court, she will go stark raving mad in the media.

Would've been nice if you'd acted courageously a lot sooner.

(609 posts)It is so late, if he/she wants to come out, it better be a prominent person, who can call a major press conference. If you hit Thursday or Friday, it is way way too late.

(9,903 posts)... there is not much time left... knee-jerk reaction is that it would be Kellyanne. She was my first guess, with spouse helping as a writer... True, she has no real loyalty to Crooked Donald... but I remember her pundit days as Kellyanne Fitzpatrick and I can't picture her as a "true patriot"...

(40,150 posts)She is a full on member of the cult. George Conway is quoted as saying his wife is in a cult. It isn't her.

(5,491 posts)Except for the one that is written by the attorney that prosecutes him. Honestly, we know he is a horses ass. We know he's not very bright. And I don't want to read any more about him when he's gone.
That's just me though.

(80,693 posts)One of my biggest takeaways from the Watergate era was Dont But Books By Crooks.
So frankly I dont give a rats ass WHOS writing some new mea culpa. Theyre NOT getting MY money. I wouldnt have them in my house. Even after fumigation.
I can get excerpts here and elsewhere enough to get the gist of whats in whatever book it is.

am reliably informed that @benjaminwittes should have his old baby cannon ready for this afternoon when an anonymous person will step out of the shadows
