Kellyanne Conway blasted what she described as President Joe Biden‘s false promises of unity and the rampant “chaos” under his watch.
“I don’t know if we’ve ever been more divided,” Conway, who served as senior counselor to former President Donald Trump, posited at a Young America’s Foundation event at the Catholic University of America on Wednesday.
Conway set her focus on Biden “and the other phony people who pretend that they are trying” to solve the world’s problems. She compared the situation to the tumultuous Trump years during which she made the case that there was a lot of noise but not so much tribulation.
“I worked for a president, and all I heard was ‘We’re divided!’ ‘Chaos! Chaos!’ Chaos in a tweet, maybe. Chaos in a comment, a stray comment,” she said of her time working for Trump.
“But now we have real chaos — true chaos, true crises. Chaos at the gas pump. Chaos at the grocery store. Chaos in the supply chain. Chaos at the southern border. Chaos, I would say, at the Russia-Ukraine border but now chaos in Ukraine, way past the border. Real chaos. Real crises — and they’re all man-made. They’re man-made crises,” she said.
“And this is a person — a president — who promised on Inauguration Day he would unify the country. And I sure the heck hoped that he could. Sounds like a great thing for a president and a vice president to do,” Conway continued.
“But all we’ve done is divide,” she said.

Conway, who was a GOP pollster before taking charge of Trump’s 2016 campaign in the final months of the election cycle, also touched on the Afghanistan withdrawal, abortion, and COVID-19.
She concluded the engagement by imploring students to reach across the aisle, warning them against shunning their ideological counterparts. “A house divided will fail,” Conway said.
She further emphasized the necessity of “common decency and civility” in order to achieve unity.
“For you to be a unifier, for you to do what the president of the United States lied about doing and doesn’t seem much interested in doing, you have to do something that those who oppose you aren’t willing to do: You have to go first,” she said.

“Why? Because it’s worth it. Because we have a country to save and govern and lead and protect and preserve and expand into your generation and the next generations after you,” Conway said.
