WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Kellyanne Conway, the Republican pollster and strategist who helped guide President-elect Donald J. Trump to victory in November, will be appointed counselor to the president, becoming the highest-ranking woman in his White House, the transition team announced early Thursday.
Ms. Conway, who took over as campaign manager shortly after Mr. Trump clinched the Republican nomination over the summer, guided her candidate through a brutal and divisive campaign, often appearing on television to vouch for him during periods of scandal or controversy.

WOMEN FOR TRUMP!!!
Also ,I’m taking suggestions for a new tagline before the first of the year. I think it’s clearly indicated.
Great news!
Another terrific reinforcement, along with Bannon, by Trump’s side.
Rudy deserved that job more than anyone.
Not happy with Rudy’s treatment.
But they were at the army/navy game together so I guess it wasn’t a big deal.
Rudy was on TV fighting for him before almost ANYONE else.
Of course, the country comes before what we individually want for our personal heroes.
There will be a sugar plum for Rudy.
It’s been officially announced on Reuters.
Trump has shown that he values strong women. Kelly Anne is a truth-teller and get the message to the messenger.
I would’ve liked to see Rudy in some executive position with the Trump White House.
Even if his service was for a year or two...
Yabut she's white.
That means Trump is a racist!
Yeah, what’s the deal with Rudy? He’s been so loyal to Trump and one of his biggest fans.
I understand, but maybe Rudy didn’t want to be tied down to Washington and a full time job at this point in his life. He can be a big influence on this administration from anywhere, including NYC.
This was sure kept a big secret. Good for her. She’s not afraid to tell the media...”you’re full of cr**.”
Please realize that these appointments are agreements between the two people involved. President Trump might have had a role in mind for Rudy that Rudy did not want to fill. From all reports, Rudy wanted Secretary of State and nothing else. For reasons unknown to us, the President preferred someone else in the Secretary of State position. But Trump and Giuliani are long-time close friends, so don't worry too much about Rudy.
What matters is the country, not any one individual's position in the administration.
You sure there’s going to be a sugar plum? Seems more like a stocking full of coal for Rudy.
“Trump Whisperer” is the first good thing from the NUT since whenever.

NYT that is.
He can be just as loyal and helpful to Trump as a friend. The President is still allowed to have friends, ya know. Same thing with Newt.
Sure wish Guiliani would run for Mayor of NYC or Governor...or for the Senate. We shall see.
Trump shouldn’t choose his counselors as rewards, but for how he values their counsel.
Kellyanne Conway is superb.
From my understanding the job Rudy wanted was SoS. There was a rumor reported that Trump didn’t think he had the stamina for that. And Trump of course has far more information to go on than we do.
To be sure. He’s too talented to discard, even if there weren’t the gratitude thing.
