Conway May Take Role Outside Administration

December 1, 2016 at 5:30 am EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

“Kellyanne Conway is considering taking the helm of the external political operation that will support Donald Trump during his tenure as president,” The Hill reports.

“Just as President Obama’s outside organization became a powerful force in progressive politics, Trump’s infrastructure could become a dominant force on the right. What becomes of this group — and who runs it — is one of the hottest topics of conversation circulating the D.C. Republican scene.”
