From "Kellyanne Conway’s daughter Claudia 'officially pushing for emancipation'" (NY Post).
I see she got a response — a wise response — from Marianne Williamson:
I don’t agree with your mother politically, Claudia, but she’s still your mom. I promise you your life ahead will be better if you handle your issues with her privately. I’m sure she’d go to counseling with you, if you don’t already. Love has got to trump politics. It just has to— Marianne Williamson (@marwilliamson) August 23, 2020
Claudia sounds like she is what she is — a 15-year-old kid. She's saying things that would only be shouted around the house if it weren't for social media and that would go nowhere on social media if her parents weren't famous.

Crying and slamming doors are needed.
What am awful kid, and, judging by her profile picture, she’s looking for attention in all the wrong places.
Williamson’s advice is wise, I agree.
Agreed. The more she rants, the more she appears what she is: another angry teenager bent on embarrassing her parents.
She should do what other 15-year olds do who want to be emancipated. Get knocked up, have a baby and go on AFDC.
And Nancy Pelosi wants little bumbling babies like her to vote. Wake up.
She'll do well as a stripper...Great attitudes like this will get you places!!
Didn't think I could like KellyAnne Conway even more.
The poor girl has a serious problem, and its not her social life.
Her parents are estranged. One would think they would be divorced by now - well, I'm not sure why not, but it may be for the sake of the kids, of which there are three others, two are younger.
The family problem, it seems to me, is that husband George can't deal with his wife becoming much more successful than he has ever been. She has been a very high profile political player for decades, he has been, relatively speaking, a back office schlub. Worse yet he was passed over for political appointments in the Trump administration.
As always, the worst part about this 15 year old's public histrionics is the Twitter replies. The derangement of the leftists in this country is the scariest thing I've witnessed in my 58 years above the grass.
Wish I was 15 years old again.
To be that smart and all knowing was awesome sauce! Yaknow? Everybody was was soo stupid, they refused to see how, like smart I was, and like how I just KNEW stuff.
I repeat again.
The President of the United States only exercised the power, congress want him/her to exercise. Of course the Dems transfer that power to the executive when they are in power, because the actually believe Dems will forever hold the presidency, and will never have to govern through legislation. Dems are grooming the Office for a Dem Tyrant in Chief.
It's children in politics again its promoted because she says what the left wants to hear. Gives Marianne an opportunity to look not batshit crazy too...
There are reasons 15 year-old girls are so easily abducted.
"I’m a savage lol I’m aware"
Kids attacking parents: the old lefty tactic.
The dirty secret of commie campaigns: the kids enjoyed it.
A savagery now easily triggered in the age of social media.
She's saying things that would only be shouted around the house if it weren't for social media
Twitter is forever, kid.
I met Williamson in Sioux City. She is something else. She loves talking about love.
Wonder why she wasn’t allowed to speak at the DNC. Biden plagiarized her.
By the time she's 45 she'll be voting for some conservative politician, too. The only redeeming thing about 15 year olds is that they don't stay 15. Well, except for Howard.
Gosh, I love when teenagers blackmail their parents.
How old is that picture Williamson is using?
I bet its older than Claudia
She is jealous of her mother’s successes. Talk about entitlement. She wants control over her mother’s successes so she will be the special one.Her mother better keep her career, because family hates her for being a strong woman.keep up the good work KellyAnne.

30 years from now and you see the world as being similar to it is now. So optimistic.
Wonderful, Marianne Williamson.

Claudia sounds like she is what she is — a 15-year-old kid.
And a stupid kid at that. Glad I only had boys.
By the way, it's ridiculous to refer to a 15 year old as 'left leaning.' I have three teenage daughters whom I adore, admire and respect, and I still feel comfortable regularly [privately] quoting the great Noah Van Der Hoff: "Kids know dick." This kid is going through a normal rejection of her mother and whatever her mother stands for; that is not the same thing has having thoughtful and informed positions on policy. If her mother were an expert in walnuts and walnut accessories she'd be described as 'pecan leaning.'
This is really really sad.
Oh and re urging AOC to adopt her: Every rebellious 15 year old wants to go live with her cool aunt who will let her stay out all night and buy her alcohol and commiserate about her like totally dickhead parents. It's not a political thing. It's just that we let social media masquerade as actual connection now.
Sounds like a case of white privilege coming into full flower.
Here she is bitching and moaning how her rich parents ruined her life.
When Cardi B was Claudia's age she was already luring men with the promise of sex, then drugging and robbing them. Today Cardi B's a big star, grabbing fat stacks, hobnobbing with high society and Brrring to presidential candidates on the TeeV.
Time for an agonizin' reappraisal, Claudia.
I’ll bet KellyAnne Conway is regretting her school choices, now.
Liberals (and fools) are created, not born.
Again proving Marianne had far too much common sense under the new age weirdness to be in that field, too much real empathy to be a politician of the Left, where empathy is talked about but never shown to the other side.
It’s beyond weird that strangers know the intimate family struggles of a 15 year old kid who they don’t know personally because she shares it on social media. Social media is already poison for teenagers, especially teen girls, and causes tremendous pain, isolation, anxiety and depression. They invent drama for attention sometimes. Who knew, right?!
It’s another level beyond that level of weird that a news organization leverages that kid’s drama/pain for clicks and eyeballs. Whatever. Gross.
Whatever the underlying truth is here — we do not know and we cannot know — we do know for sure that political power players in the media and on the Left are using this kid. So are the bloggers who blog about it.
It’s sick and disturbing. Why call attention to it without offering withering criticism? What purpose is served? This is gossip, and all of us have better things to do than waste one nanosecond thinking about it.
Pants nails it to the wall: AOC as the "cool" (and obviously childless) aunt.
2020 continues to bewilder - Marianne Williamson is a voice of reason?
George is the problem child. The daughter is just acting out the father’s unresolved emotional conflicts which block him from performing as an effective male parent.
Kellyanne would be wise to divorce him. For the children.
George is the problem child. The daughter is just acting out the father’s unresolved emotional conflicts which block him from performing as an effective male parent.
And his reward, deep down, is ultimately that the daughter has contempt for him too.
Genetic-aesthetics comment -
George Conway is a Filipino mestizo, 50% I think (ask me about the shame we feel on this score).
Anyway, you can see the advantages of hybridization in the daughter. She is her mother, but finer-boned, as Eurasians tend to be. She will be beautiful when she grows up.
I stan Marianne.
Follow the Ramones method of child-rearing, the "US Festival" of 1982.

What are the chances this kid is being egged on by trump haters? I put it at 100%.
This is where twitter shows it’s true, vile, evil soul. Take a normal 15 year old having a normal tantrum, add twitter, and create a crisis she will regret for the rest of her life. Jack Dorsey should be held for crimes against humanity.
I feel slimy reading about a 15 year old’s tweets in the news. How low are they willing to sink?
Sad. I recall articles on how the Conway's were having trouble finding schools to take their children because of all the Trump hate.Considering how the left controls education she must have been subjected to brutal remarks by teachers and fellow students.Then at home she learns from her father this is how you disagree with family-publicly on social media.
The early democratic party candidates offered some fresh and distinctly American Minds. At the time I fantasized that President Trump might invite Yang, Marianne and Tulsi into his White House to brainstorm, and as a kind of Office of Out-There Advisers.
wouldn't that have been great fun? Trump is in some ways so much more like them -- outsiders -- than these calloused, cagey "Suits" like Kamala, Warren, Biden etc.
Well, good on Marianne Williamson for the sympathetic but on-point response (and not demonizing Kellyanne), and good on Althouse for seeing and stating the obvious.
I'm sure Claudia may have legitimate personal issues with her parents, not all of which arise from the fact of her adolescence. Most kids will. Just a fact of life. It's just too bad social media make it so easy to air one's dirty laundry on which the whole world can opine.
buwaya said, "George Conway is a Filipino mestizo, 50% I think (ask me about the shame we feel on this score)."
buwaya, can you say something about the shame Filipinos feel over the mestizo issue? Thanks.
I guess mom said no to the tatoos.
. The derangement of the leftists in this country is the scariest thing I've witnessed in my 58 years above the grass.
Yup and I have 25 more years and still have seen nothing like it. The other problem is that they have allies on the supposed right that are really using them for purposes we don;'t kn ow. I worry about the military above O-6 who have careerism as a motive. No Afghanistan, no promotions. The old Royal Navy chant was for "Bloody wars and sickly seasons" as the key to promotion.
"30 years from now and you see the world as being similar to it is now. So optimistic."
Sixty years ago when I was 15 I knew everything, had embarrassing parents and was somewhat left wing too - if one believes a 15 year old is capable of developing a political philosophy. Moreover, I knew that if my generation didn't change the world and the direction of the country, humanity could not survive, i.e., it was similar to what is is now. Since that time we have actually survived several hot wars and a thirty year cold one, one presidential assassination and one presidential resignation, several significant recessions, race riots, political divisions and (to date) even Face Book. In fact, we have not only survived but prospered to the point where we are now the richest and most privileged people who have ever lived. All that happened even though I can't think of a single thing that transpired on a national, macro level that would have been any different than if I had never been born. So, in reality, I am not only optimistic about the next 30 years, I don't think the country will ever have been more prosperous and strong than it will be in 2050, no matter what the current crop of fifteen year olds thinks or does in the intervening time. Just as is the case with me and my generation now as compared to thirty or sixty years ago. The only question is whether we take the most direct route, and that's primarily what this election is about.
Oh man...girls at age fifteen. Our wonderful, only now occasionally-irritating young adult daughter was just a freakin' trial in her teen years, and fifteen was the worst. It was like living with a bear with a thorn in its paw for about four years. At around age 18 it changed to living with a bear that regularly stepped on a thorn but at least it wasn't 24/7.
The attitudes of 15 year old girls frequently change by the time they are say 23 or 24.
I agree with Pants.
I would be mortified to have read my daughters tweets when she was that age. Those were the Dark Days and they lasted close to 9 months. Fortunately, social media was only in its early stages. She was definitely pecan-leaning ....as in she was nutz. We’re back on track I’m happy to say.
This gal will regret this for the rest of her life if she doesn’t listen up.

She also probably hates her younger sisters too. When they came along all the attention she was receiving as a only child suddenly disappeared. Lots of issues in her very young head.
So emancipate her ass - with a foot and an open doorway - as soon as it is legal.
“stanning” and “yaknow” in one thread, Ann!
I’m grateful to you for the efficiency you offer your readers in expanding vocab and the infinite flexibility of the English language. And let’s not overlook the introduction to Pavlik Morozov in the same thread. Damn! Time well spent this morning.
- Krumhorn
I’d pay her to go away on her 18th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
She sounds like a spoiled brat, however even spoiled brats tell the truth about their parents.
Wonder if the children of the famous feel like they too, by association, should be famous. She’s 15. She doesn’t know jackshit about anything. And yet she seems to think the world is dying to hear from her.
If they didn't rebel, they'd never leave.
Glass half-full.
The kid is probably getting bullied at school by classmates and possibly teachers because of who her mom works for.
At the core of the problem is the husband, not the wife. George Conway wasn't forced to like Trump, but if his wife has a job in his campaign and later administration, he should have bitten his fucking tongue and not have made a public spectacle of himself in opposing her employer the way he has. A real man would not have made his and his spouse's split politics a public thing at all. A real man wouldn't have done it even if the couple were estranged given they have non-adult children. George Conway is a world-class putz.
Maryanne is the adult here.
George Conway and the daughter and worse than any caricature they paint of Trump.
George Conway and his daughter are children.
Kick her ungrateful ass out of the house. She's cute enough to find another Epstein to teach her how to give massages in no time.
I suspect "abuse" means holding her accountable.
I, Claudia
how many hours of surreptitious recording has this brat logged?
And would go nowhere if her parents were Democrats.
The daughter is 15 going on 30.
It's not unusual.
One hopes she finds inner peace at some point.
The Leftist Collectivists are fighting a Total War and there are no prisoners.
I see no peaceful resolution at a societal level.
Advice needed.
Someone I follow on Twitter, and will continue to follow, since she tweets a lot of interesting things on Greek and Latin literature, retweeted a Claudia Conway tweet. I immediately blocked CC. Should I have muted her instead? Which is better for a 15-year-old who really needs to get off Twitter: to know that people really don't want to hear from her (block) or not to know (mute)?
A reliably lefty friend of mine says that Kellyanne and George are playing the Carville/Matalin game for financial gain. Makes sense except Carville and Matalin never got personally nasty about one another.
"buwaya, can you say something about the shame Filipinos feel over the mestizo issue? Thanks."
None at all. Half the country is eager to claim some Spanish ancestry, which is usually negligible or non-existent. The rare bird who really and visibly is a Spanish mestizo has a sometimes embarassing visibility and status. Its a good basis to run for office. Even an American mestizo has serious social advantages. In global terms, comparing national traits, the Filipinos are notably xenophilic.
The shame is re George Conway, for those few who know who and what he is. He is in Filipino terms a rather despicable sort. To be jealous and resentful of your successful wife - that is NOT macho. That society is accustomed to successful women, its a thing. They were feminist before it was cool in the West. To be that way in public - that is worse, to air such shameful things in public brings your family into disrepute.
Btw, it is a major, major macho status thing to have an American wife.

And to the twerking.
When I saw Claudia's avatar image there I thought "blowjob position". Is that all the rage now, young women using bio pics that look like they are ready to insert a penis into their mouth?
Imagine there's no Lefty teachers inculcating your children.
It isn't hard to do.

Thread winner.
To be jealous and resentful of your successful wife - that is NOT macho.
An indicator of weakness. A character flaw. A personal failing... on its own. There is one caveat, the wife and husband must reconcile to mutual support.
And to the twerking.
Eyes down here... should be an intimate experience.
AA - you could be on point but? "...Claudia sounds like she is what she is — a 15-year-old kid. She's saying things that would only be shouted around the house if it weren't for social media and that would go nowhere on social media if her parents weren't famous..."
I believe she's saying this to protect herself at the Lib School she attends. After-all, which 15 year old doesn't want to run with the 'right pack in her school'. She's 15 why do we care?
Well, maybe now we'll stop talking about 'Greta Thunberg' who's that wise greenie at 17 [another Einstein]. LOL! The MSM is trying to play us all! Propaganda 24/7!
15 year olds shouldn’t have national platforms. Whoever is encouraging her is abusing a child. Good for Marianne.
That kid is going to be cutting herself soon from the sound of her. The people who are encouraging this are child abusers.

She tweeted, "you know life isn’t fair when you wake up to your own mother speaking aside a homophobe and a rapist". Does this mean that Kellyanne is working for Biden now?
Williamson, for all her eccentricities, would probably have made a more respectable candidate than the ones they are running. There were several better persons in the original candidate lineup.
Whoever was managing the Democratic selection process, and it was of course all predetermined, is not competent.

It is interesting, isn't it ? I suspect these very rich think they know as much about politics as they do about getting rich. In the case of the widow Jobs, I'm not sure what talents she exhibited. Her husband shared quite a few characteristics with Trump.
Claudia could also be false flagging?! she could be spawn of macchivvelli (R)

in both those marriages woman is the sane partner!
I see her on TikTok and it’s clear she thinks this is her way to fame. She’s always telling her followers that mommy is going to take her phone an social media away from her. Her followers than yell free speech! Some of her videos are borderline racy. I hate to see how this is going end up. Mommy really does need to take her phone and social media away.
She's saying things that would only be shouted around the house if it weren't for social media

hmmm ... imagine AA with blog at 15 - developing cruel neutrality!
She'll make a great pile dancer, if she doesn't od on meth.
Kellyanne Conway will leave her job at the White House at the end of the month.
More mama. Less drama.
Claudia wins.
Kellyanne has announced that she will be stepping down at the end of the month.
Twitter is the most toxic product thrust upon the children of the world since thalidomide.
I have wondered why George would work so hard to undermine his wife. Today I spent a little time listening to George Conway being interviewed by msnbc about his so called principles and the reason he opposes Trump, and I agree with Meade. George is a child and that marriage is burned.
You'd think a guy who is as smart as George Conway wouldn't be so stupid to be so threatened or resentful towards Trump. Especially when there are children involved. But I see that resentment a lot especially among very educated liberal guys who are pissed off that a guy like Trump has succeeded so much more than they have.
Sorry Claudia, mummy and daddy aren't working anymore and I'm sure you'll understand that actions have consequences. We'll discuss later when we can afford an allowance for you again, and sometime after that we'll discuss resuming your driver's education. We need your cell phone back, as we are trimming unnecessary expenses.
