Counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway said she "didn't see the point" to the Women's March on Washington on Saturday.

"I frankly didn't see the point. I mean you have a day after [President Trump] is uplifting and unifying, and you have folks here being on a diatribe....

Conway also addressed the celebrity presence at the march in Washington, D.C., which was one of hundreds such demonstrations Saturday around the U.S. and the world that drew over a million participants. She called out Madonna for using "profanity-laced" language.

"You have celebrities from the podium using profanity-laced insults. You have a very prominent singer who's worth hundreds of millions of dollars not going over to a woman's shelter here in D.C. to write a check, but instead saying that she thought of, quote, 'burning down the White House,'" Conway said.

...

Conway said she "briefly" talked to Trump about the march, adding, "We certainly respect people's First Amendment rights."

She also noted that the Democratic Party's political leaders -- former President Barack Obama and 2016 presidential nominee Hillary Clinton -- didn't make an appearance at any of the marches Saturday.

"The other thing I would just mention, George, is, guess who was conspicuous by their absence yesterday? President Obama, Secretary Clinton -- they were at the, they were up on the platform applauding and embracing President Trump" at the inauguration...

That’s why Trump’s comment about “didn’t these people get to vote” was perfect.

They are caught up in something they don't even understand. They simply want to march. Most of them, like my niece who has three children and lives a safe suburban life, probably don't even know what the marched for.

Here is my niece's response when I asked her if the riots on inauguration day were, in a sense, justified.

I guess we’re only STRONGER TOGETHER when their crooked candidate wins.

Yeah, those pink hats were their ‘participation trophies’.
But they had to bring their own. The DNC just spends money on itself.

“Hey, it was a ‘participation march’ for the losers!”

Everyone does get a trophy.

My understanding is that the rally was planned before the election in anticipation of Hillary winning.

IMO, When Trump won, then the females just decided to not waste their money and go ahead with their nice trip to DC after all.

They definitely aren’t upset with what he says about women-they love Bill Clinton.

‘We demand the abortion rights our MOTHERS fought for’.

On our old van, we used to have a bumper sticker that read, "Ya Mama was pro-life, dawlin!". Had a chick pass us once with a hand-lettered sign she'd just made, after having seen the sticker. Her sign read "My mother is pro-choice!". Hubby and I just laughed in her face!! Nah, she didn't understand.

Well no wonder they were so p*ssed off! LOL!!

And note all the women who couldn’t be there. Due to their mother’s abortion rights.

Amtrak is a losing proposition, only sustained by OUR money. It, like NPR, PBS, etc., should have to make it on its own or die.

D.C. is one of THE wealthiest parts of this nation, due to the freeloading, greedy, grasping, pols and pundit class.

BOYCOTT ALL OF THE HASBEENS, SO-CALLED "STARS", AND WANNABES!

SHUN EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO WENT TO ONE OF THESE STUPID MARCHES; THEY ARE OUR ENEMIES!
