White House counselor Kellyanne Conway has "no idea" who the mysterious New York Times op-ed author is, but she knows what will become of him or her. The author, reportedly a "senior official" in the Trump administration, will be outed, Conway predicted on "Fox & Friends" Monday morning.
“Cowards are like criminals – they eventually suss out themselves because they eventually confess or brag to the wrong person, and I suspect that’s what will happen here.” -@KellyannePolls on anonymous NYT op-ed writer pic.twitter.com/FRiFqKmH4w— FOX & friends (@foxandfriends) September 10, 2018
The author, who she calls "unimpressive," wanted to be a martyr. But, what he or she wasn't expecting, was to be ridiculed by all political stripes. The author "doesn't have the courage" to come forward, but their conceit will do the job for them, she said.
"Cowards are like criminals," Conway explained. "They eventually suss out themselves because they eventually confess or brag to the wrong person."
Plenty of people have speculated, but the op-ed writer's identity remains a mystery. What we do have, is several officials insisting the op-ed did not come from their pen. Vice President Mike Pence, for instance, has been tied to the op-ed because the word "lodestar," a word he has used several times, appears in the piece. But he has repeatedly denied the charge. On Sunday, he even offered to take a lie detector test.
I would agree to take a polygraph test "in a heartbeat," Pence told Fox News's Chris Wallace over the weekend. A White House-wide lie detector testing, however, would be "up to the president."
The op-ed writer "should resign" for their "un-American" piece, Pence said.
"They're literally violating an oath," he said. "If they're that senior administration official, they're violating an oath, not to the president, but to the Constitution."
Both Pence and Conway suggested that the op-ed author is trying to distract voters from the booming economy.
The guessing game continues.
Come on, Kellyanne. We all know it was that no-talent, LBGTQRSTUVWXYZ beyotch that the Slimes recently hired. Can’t remember (and don’t want to remember) it’s name.

It is possible the Times made the whole thing up.
“...possible the Times made the whole thing up...”
or probable that the Times made the whole thing up - I think it is a hoax just like the Steele fabrication was.

Right! You can’t out somebody who does not exist.
1) NY Times staff member
2) Reality Winner from her prison cell
The entire administration and goofy Republicans like Giuliani should stay out of this, and keep their mouths shut. For some stooopid reason, Republicans perpetuate tabloid crap that keeps the MSM and libs happy.
The Administration should do nothing, say nothing (openly). Since the idiot outed himself, he probably enjoys the notarity. He will step out again soon.
But I think he works for the NYT and there is no high level official.
John McCain wrote it before he died or dictated it to a NYT Reporter.

Kellyanne Conway warning the offender to avoid talking about it to anyone.
It actually keeps the MSM busy. Too busy to notice the successes that Trump is making. I think the Mueller fiasco serves the same purpose, keeps the focus off what's really happening. Good strategy, imo.
The slimes is either lying now, or or they were lying last week when they claimed that the deep state didn't exist.
Either way they are liars.
The bastards must’ve had to look around awhile to find a photo as unflattering as that one.
The Leftards’ collective MO would seem merely sophomoric if it weren’t intrinsically evil, which it surely is.
Check your hubby Kellyanne. He’s been going through your purse!
The book sounds like it is bits from all the fake news.
A leading candidate is Fiona Hill, hired by since-fired H.R. McMaster and currently the NSC’s Senior Director for European and Russian Affairs. Ms. Hill spent six years with Soros’s Open Society Foundations, and has been a vocal critic of President Trump. The president gives his enemies rope, and they just can’t help hanging themselves.
