Kellyanne Conway's daughter Claudia says she's cured of radical leftism, chants MAGA: 'Now I love Trump'
Claudia Conway, the daughter of President Donald Trump's counselor Kellyanne Conway, has reportedly said she has been cured of her anti-Trump views and now supports the Republican leader. The 15-year-old, on Monday, July 13, had claimed that her parents were forcing her to delete her social media accounts after she posted a series of tweets and TikTok videos criticizing Trump and backing the Black Lives Matter movement.
Claudia, in a tweet on Monday night, had written: "My parents are forcing me to delete social media, so this is my last tweet. apparently, I don’t have a platform! it’s fake! love you all so much. keep fighting!" Shortly after she had posted a TikTok video of herself dancing and waving a Trump/Pence campaign sign. The teen then returned to the video-sharing platform on Tuesday, July 14, stating that the "rumors are true". The teen, in a new video, stated: "I have been cured from my radical leftism and now I love Trump and I love our president." She finished the video by saying "MAGA," a reference to Trump's campaign slogan 'Make America Great Again."
The teen had made headlines last month after she became viral for posting anti-Trump content on her social media accounts despite her mother working in the Trump White House.
Claudia's latest updates comes nearly a week after she had begun using her social media accounts to troll her parents, Kellyanne and George Conway, a staunch Trump critic. Although the White House counselor had previously said that she is supportive of her daughter making her own mind about her political views, the teenager had recently claimed that her parents were trying to shut off her phone in an effort to stop her from causing controversy for the family.
The teen's father, George Conway, who is one of the founders of anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project, had attempted to intervene in the issue in a message to journalists, saying that neither he nor Kellyanne gave permission for them to speak to Claudia or any of their other children.
George had tweeted: "To journalists: @kellyannepolls and I do *not* consent to any communications between you and any of our minor children, including our daughter Claudia. So desist. Thank you." Claudia, however, had snapped back at her father, writing: "You're just mad that I'm finally getting my voice heard. sorry your marriage failed."
The teen, at one point, had even streamed live her confrontation with her mother on TikTok when Kellyanne had confronted her about the content she posts about Trump. The White House counselor eventually attempted to physically take her daughter's phone. "You can get back to it, turn it off," Kellyanne could be heard saying in the live stream. "Turn it off now lady." Claudia then ignored her mother and said to her commenters: "No I'm not ok thanks guys though. Also she keeps insulting my mental health. I'm just showing everyone the truth, you're literally not letting me use my freedom of speech."
Kellyanne, in the clip, then responds saying she "can use her freedom of speech but daddy just wants you to shut it off because not everyone who follows you is well meaning." The White House counselor then looks at the number of viewers on her daughter's stream then asks: "That many people have nothing to do? That's amazing, it's so nice out." The screen then goes blank as Claudia can be heard in the background shouting: "Mom, what are you doing?" to which Kellyanne says: "It's mine." The teenager, in a series of tweets, had also tagged her parents' Twitter accounts, telling them to "please stop shutting off my phone."
