The sharks are swarming following a demand by the politicized Justice Department for President Trump to fire Kellyanne Conway for saying mean things about 2020 Democrat presidential candidates.
According to the Office Of Special Counsel, Conway’s criticism of former Vice President Joe Biden, socialist crank Bernie Sanders and Cory ‘Spartacus’ Booker was a big no-no and the media was ready to pounce on the latest ginned-up scandal even if millions of Americans are experiencing Trump Derangement Syndrome fatigue.
Following the calls for the senior adviser’s head, the White House quickly responded with an official statement that decried the “weaponizing” of the archaic and selectively enforced law for an “unprecedented” attack on her First Amendment rights.
President Trump then followed up a defense of Conway flung directly into the faces of the gasping outrage mob: “I’m not going to fire her”.
Then for an exclamation point on the left’s call to take away Conway’s free speech; The POTUS slammed it home with these five words:
IT DOESN’T WORK THAT WAY!
He also added that “I think she’s a terrific person. She’s a tremendous spokesperson,” as he once again dashed the hopes of the resistance for a cheap score in the political Game Of Thrones.
The president also hit the bullseye by calling out the left for their ongoing jihad to censor conservatives.
“They have tried to take away her speech and I think you’re entitled to free speech in the country.”
Via The Washington Examiner:
On Friday morning, President Trump confirmed his decision: that he would not be firing Conway. In a phone interview on “Fox and Friends,” Trump said of Conway, “I’m not gonna fire her. I think she’s a terrific person. She’s a tremendous spokesperson.”
Trump also said he will not suggest to Conway, known for her outspoken nature, to refrain from speaking out against those she considers to be political opponents. He said, “It doesn’t work that way … a person wouldn’t be able to express themselves, and I just don’t see it.”
Translation: Go To Hell!
As for Kellyanne? Ever the professional, she stayed above the scrum and assisted President Trump and First Lady Melania with doing the nation’s work by addressing the opioid crisis.

The usual suspects aren’t taking it well including Scott Dworkin, a Democrat party hack and one-time senior advisor for “Draft Biden” who put on his tinfoil hat and tweeted out the following conspiracy theory:
It’s clear Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ resignation announcement was timed to try and bury the fact a federal watchdog agency said Kellyanne Conway should be fired. Don’t worry, we will remind everyone tomorrow.

He also echoed what will be the cry this weekend for Conway to resign:
BREAKING: Trump just said he won’t be firing Kellyanne Conway for breaking the law. He’s acting like she didn’t break the law, like it’s a free speech issue. Nice try, lunatic. Absolutely ridiculous. He’s such an illegitimate criminal who should resign immediately. #FireKellyanne

Try as they may, the deeply embedded Obama loyalists who still infest every nook and cranny of the bureaucracy aren’t going to be able to force Trump to abide by their ridiculous demands nor appease their ongoing temper tantrum over a lost election.
