Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Donald Trump, criticized the modern feminist movement and those who participated in last month's women’s marches on Thursday. “It turns out there are a lot of women who just have a problem with women in power,” Conway said at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). “You know, this whole sisterhood, this whole ‘let’s go march for women’s rights,’ and just constantly talking about what women look like or what they wear or making fun of their choices or presuming that they’re not as powerful as the men around. This presumptive negativity about women in power is very unfortunate.” She also criticized the modern feminist movement as “anti-male” and “pro-abortion.” Conway said the conference is “going to be TPAC by tomorrow,” for President Trump, who is expected to speak at the conference on Friday.
