Kellyanne Conway Memes Flood Twitter After Flash Cards On Hannity's Show; Other Hilarious Conway Moments
White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway on Wednesday used what she called the "Word of the Day" on Sean Hannity’s show on Fox News to indicate the administration's reaction to the controversy over Donald Trump Jr. meeting with a Kremlin-connected lawyer.
Trump junior met with Natalia Veselnitskaya during the 2016 presidential campaign in order to find dirt on his father's rival Hillary Clinton.
Twitter users came up with hilarious memes to mock the White House counselor after she held up two flash cards during the interview. One had the words "conclusion" and "collusion" written on it, while the other had "illusion" and "delusion" on it.
"What’s the conclusion? Collusion? No. We don’t have that yet," Conway told host Sean Hannity. "I see illusion and delusion. Just so we’re clear, everyone. Conclusion? Collusion, no. Illusion and delusion, yes," she added.

Here are some of the funny comments and memes from Twitter mocking the White House counselor.
Conway also spoke about the alleged links between Russian officials and Hillary Clinton, and Trump’s conflict with mainstream media.
During her interview, Conway criticized the media’s coverage of the Russia investigation, calling it "myopic, lemming-like, ants-on-a-sugar-cube mentality."
"Do you realize the President of the United States sat with the President of Russia less than a week ago for 2 hours and 15 minutes, and yet we’re talking about this and not that? Do you realize that you’ve got people in the media now between their lower third chyrons and what comes out of their mouth, they talk more about Russia than America?" she added.
Conway said that Trump Jr.’s meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya was nothing in comparison to the alleged arrangements between Russian officials and the Clintons. She said: "The biggest response I’ve heard from the media about that is, 'Oh, but a different person won. You won, she lost.'"
"That does not erase the fact that people may have broken the law and that they colluded with foreign governments to try to damage people on the Trump campaign, which by extension would damage Mr. Trump at the time," Conway told Hannity.
This is not the first time Trump's counselor has provoked fierce social media reactions and uproar.
In March, a photo of her in the Oval Office sparked a controversy and drew similar reactions from social media users. The much-talked about photo showed Conway sitting with her legs folded beneath her on a couch in the Oval Office. Memes were created out of the photo and some social media users called her action "disrespectful."
In March, when Trump accused his predecessor Barack Obama of wiretapping Trump Tower during the presidential campaign, the president's team had been quick to come to his defense. While trying to clarify Trump's tweets about wiretapping, Conway said during an interview with the "Bergen County Record" on MSNBC, that she feels there were other ways Obama could have been spying instead of using the phone.
"What I can say is there are many ways to surveil each other now, unfortunately," she said at the time. "There was an article this week that talked about how you can surveil someone through their phones, through their — certainly through their television sets, any number of different ways, and microwaves that turn into cameras, etc., so we know that that is just a fact of modern life," she added.
Social media users quickly responded to Conway's microwave comment and had a field day with hilarious memes and reactions.
