Kellyanne Conway advises Trump to throw fewer insults at opponents, Internet says 'good luck with that'

WASHINGTON, DC: Kellyanne Conway offered strategic advice to Donald Trump, urging him to reduce the frequency of his insults directed at political opponents.

The former Trump adviser played a key role in the GOP presidential nominee's 2016 campaign, believing that focusing on policy over personal attacks could be the key to securing another victory.

Kellyanne Conway says Donald Trump has the 2016 'swagger'

Speaking about what Donald Trump should follow for his election campaign, Conway said, “The winning formula for President Trump is very plain to see.”

“It’s fewer insults, more insights, and that policy contrast," she told Fox Business anchor Larry Kudlow.

This advice comes at a critical time as Trump continues to sling insults at Vice President Kamala Harris, who has recently emerged as a formidable contender in the upcoming November election.

Harris currently holds a narrow lead over Trump, with 47.8 percent support compared to his 46.4 percent, according to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ's polling index, reported The Hill.

“He’s got that hunger, swagger, underdog, underestimated of 2016 back, Larry, and you overlay that with the four-year presidential record where we did have growth — we did have wage growth, we had low unemployment and the whole nine that you and I know,” Conway added.

Criticism against Donald Trump over attacks against Kamala Harris

Donald Trump has recently faced criticism for questioning Kamala Harris' racial identity during an interview at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago on July 31.

Trump's ally Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has also cautioned the former president such personal attacks.

“So, here’s what I would say to President Trump: The problem I have with Kamala Harris is not her heritage. It is her judgment,” Graham recently stated.

“Every day we’re talking about her heritage and not her terrible, dangerous liberal record throughout her entire political life is a good day for her and a bad day for us," the senator continued.

“So, I would encourage President Trump to prosecute the case against Kamala Harris’s bad judgment,” he added.

Internet mocks Kellyanne Conway for advising Donald Trump to throw fewer insults at opponents

As Kellyanne Conway advised Donald Trump to focus less on personal attacks against his opponents and to focus on policy, netizens mocked the former Trump adviser for believing the former president would stick to her suggestion.

One user on X wrote, "Ha. Good luck adhering to that advice." Someone tweeted, "Hahahahhaha. It cracks me up how much they want Trump to be someone he isn’t. Maybe - bear with me - Trump just isn’t your guy."

"Has Kellyanne decided to do stand up? As if she could get Donald to go easy on insulting others!" a netizen opined. Another remarked, "Good luck with that!! lol"

"So there's no viable path to victory for him, because he's certainly not doing that," a user commented. One penned, "Kellyanne knows that Donald cannot open his mouth without insulting someone. He is too impulsive and self indulgent."
