“There may be a wall at some places, there may be steel slats, there may be technological enhancements,” she said.

KellyAnne, is it silly to appear in front of a camera and not know what the hell you are talking about? Do you wake up each morning and memorize the monologue you'll be using that day just in case someone asks a question you can't or don't want to answer? Is Sarah there with you?

Trump supporters scurry to look up the word 'semantic'.

You have no credibility Kellyanne.

KellyannePolls is a liar like realDonaldTrump !!!!🤥😡

Silly semantic argument being insisted upon by your silly former boss.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💙. All of trump you and his administration m’s making! You all are the worst and don’t represent the majority!!!

Hurts to be on the losing side, doesn’t it?

Still ugly!

Her comment sums up the entire Trump administration.

Thought this was a class y’all took in college: Silly Semantic Argument 101 KellyannePolls

Now really... does anyone still think She is credible? She is a buffoon of the first order.

Nice try Conman

People are going with out paychecks for your 'silly semantic argument'...what is wrong with you?

Hag

She’s mostly correct on this one... :/ P.S. She wrote “the letter.”

seems pretty important to your boss tho. Mexico pays for the wall seems clear and straight forward.

Like alternative facts?

🤦🏻‍♀️I didn’t read it. Is it an alternative wall now?

And yet she continues said argument

Yesterday Graham talked about “border security.”Today Kellyanne calling it “a silly semantic argument.” YES!!!! Seems they have all colluded and decided that they arent getting a wall.Going to slide some new winning terminology into the rhetoric.Govt shutdown unnecessary, Trump.

Not silly..it keeps Trump supporters fearful to remain loyal..and distracted from the real problems

Still not gonna get 5 B for a completely made-up problem

I just listened to a general explain that 4other general’s have said the current commander-in-chief is not intelligent immoral has no impulse control listens to the last person he talks to has no policy or plan other than profit which kids are seeing to what’s going on Ms. Conway

5 BILLION Dollars is silly!

Tell that to the parents of the two dead children...

don't insult the word 'silly '

To be honest there is NO honesty in this administration. Oh my silly Kellyanne such a joker.

Trump’s campaign manager complaining because of “people who just want to say ‘wall, wall, wall’. She’s forgotten Trump’s rally cry about wall wall wall and Mexico paying for it - but we haven’t.

KellyannePolls is a silly semantic. Stop giving her ‘air time’

AxisSally at it again.

More confusion and lies

Wow. A $5 billion wall/fence doesn’t seem like semantics to me.

These people are so deceiving!

Poison Pump is at it again!

Walk it back. Cracks are starting to show in the wall.

Shut up Kellyann - I don't want my taxpayer dollars to pay for this silly wall. Go play in traffic.

Ehm, shouldn’t you specify which Conway this is in the headline? Because it could swing either way depending on the spouse.

So , on a serious note …… what is the excuse for Mexico not paying for the wall...…?

Clear what the spin I was on Sunday, her and Graham started talking semantics

So if no one has decided exactly what they are going to do on our southern border, no specific plan in place then why should we Americans fund $5 billion to support a non specific plan of action? Cart before the horse again? Semantics is a word for bullshit. Smelly Kelly speak

gop grifters sad bad

KellyannePolls Like the wall between her bed & George's? You just gotta' know George has something on the side.

KellyAnnPolls There will never be a dumb wall!! Stop already with the bs

Let’s hear from Trump himself... “...given Mr. Trump’s insistence for most of his term that the border would have a wall, not the “steel slat barrier” he has pivoted toward in the past few weeks.”

No. It's about an incompetent, PresidentBoneSpurs, Trump trying to make an unwise expenditure of taxpayer dollars for a useless wall.

Alternative facts!

To try and hide the LIES you tell. Don't try to interpret the many LIES your president tells, it is a dark space from which they come. They come from a president who cares for NO ONE BUT HIMSELF, NO ONE

She's got it half-right = the entire argument is 'silly.' The rest of the words in her quote above are superfluous.

Conway do you even check to see if you have any followers on social media at all? You talk crap now like Sarah and your boss Trump. Hence a very low rating compared to your husband. It is glaring whose administration is clueless. Trump is a racist who shutdown for a silly wall.

Go take a look at the photos of the proto-walls built last year to test different styles. They look pretty solid to me! concrete, rebar, not slats or wire. The GOP are backing off their demands as Trump has painted himself into a corner. Hold strong Dems! + get Conway off the air

Today's GOP: Totally OK with shutting the government down over semantics

See the uncanny resemblance

Talk about silly...

Definition: We screwed up and are walking back our wall idea

Is that the alternative semantics? BTW did someone airbrush her pic or did she have some work done? I was thinking last week it had been a while since seeing her or SHS. Figured maybe they got a BOGO!

Or tell that to Ann Coulter: “Within 10 seconds of Trump’s leaving office, there will be no evidence that he was ever president. Laws will be changed, executive orders rescinded, treaties re-written and courts packed. Trump will leave no legacy at all. Only a wall is forever.”

Tell that to Laura Ingraham: 'If a wall -- a physical wall -- is not erected along our southern border, the president and his party will pay a severe political price.”

Talk to your boss and ask him if its a wall or enhancements. He ALWAYS says WALL!!! And there is a freaking difference!!

They're trying to walk back the insane idea that we would actually build a solid concrete wall across our entire southern border and that Mexico would completely cover the costs.

It is silly. The only wall anyone in this administration is going to see is prison walls. Now begone! Slither back under a rock for another month or two.

The lies take a toll..

And also there are these dead children

Conway needs to stop throwing damp cow chips at others before looking at herself and see how frightening her behavior has become with this President. Conway, Sanders, ands several others in this administration have ruined their reputations for any major serious work later.

I don’t think Kellyanne is very photogenic, so this is actually a good pic of her. You can really see her cunning & conniving mindset in the eyes. Chilling.

Conway is a liar for hire.

This current administration really sucks. Total amateur hour currently residing in the Whitehouse. I really can’t believe the American people pay these idiots salary.

Not to your base it’s not. Statements like this make me think Trump is nearly finished

It looks like a midevil piece of garbage give it up,it’s time to fix the problem and the people that caused the problem should take the responsibility for it. If you fix the problem there would be no need for a midevil piece of garbage.

Semantics in that the ‘wall’ stands for keeping out any migrants from south of the border and not modernizing immigration policy to allow more Central Americans to enter on legal work visa or immigration options. It means ‘racist’ in Trumps vocabulary (and distraction.)

silly argument over $5 billion, or $2.5 billion or $1.6 billion or whatever number taxpayer $$ billions that will need to come from somewhere more national debt or cuts in services? where the money from Trump's detention camps coming from

Sure... 🤔

Ask what’s he deflecting from...

She’s back

Why do democrats put illegal immigrants ahead of the security of US citizens? Are they on the payroll of Mexican drug cartels?

And where does 'the Mexican Government will pay for the wall' fit into semantics?

What is her real motivation ? Comedy? Tragedy? Mental illness, meth? What? Is it ?

Okay, but it’s realDonaldTrump’s silly semantic argument, KellyannePolls .

She's correct.

it absofuckinglutley is not a semantic argument. one side wants a physical barrier to stop people from crossing into the US, expecting that it will be do-able solution that US citizens will pay for. the other side recognizes that this is physically impossible & won't work anyway

An alternative wall, or some say a fence. The best fence.

'Semantic.' Another word for bull shit.

Walking it back, walking it back.

That's actually a decent pic of Crypt Keeper for once.

Conway: Democrats 'turning a blind eye' to 'humanitarian crisis' at the borderKellyanne Conway said Democratic leaders were playing 'raw politics' in negotiations over the White House's demand for a border wall The part your missing is many Republicans would be happy with an infinite shutdown. The Republicans want this wall bad, but most Dems don't care. This is an opportunity! Negotiate for something you want. Do you want to win or not? Dems STILL havent delivered the help they promised to the victims of the Bowling Green Massacre and their families!!! Good
