Conway dedicated part of the book to discussing the circumstances surrounding her daughter Claudia\u2019s rise to internet fame after Washington Post Reporter Taylor Lorenz utilized Conway\u2019s 15-year-old daughter for a game of political &#8220;gotcha.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Lorenz shot Conway\u2019s daughter into the viral stratosphere when she posted a thread of Claudia\u2019s TikToks to her massive Twitter following, adding &#8220;Claudia Conway is not holding back.&#8221; Unbeknownst to Kellyanne Conway at the time, Lorenz&#8211; a woman in her mid-thirties&#8211; admitted to privately messaging Conway\u2019s daughter about getting the teen girl more followers.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\"><\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/05\/24\/kellyanne-conway-felt-terror-when-daughter-claudia-went-viral\/?utm_campaign=iphone_nyp&#038;utm_source=Slack\"><em>New York Post<\/em> reported<\/a> that Conway initially had no idea about Lorenz\u2019s post and &#8220;first heard her daughter was going &#8216;viral&#8217; in July 2020 when a reporter from Yahoo! News texted her late at night,&#8221; about the new internet sensation. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>&#8220;This of course is the dream of every teenage girl who is on social media,&#8221; Conway wrote, &#8220;but her parents\u2019 nightmare.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Lorenz weaponized the teenager\u2019s angsty anti-Trump posts to target Conway, who was still the special counselor to President Trump at the time. Conway immediately became fearful for her daughter\u2019s life when she learned of Lorenz shoving the child into the spotlight, &#8220;Terror for Claudia\u2019s safety. No stranger to the spotlight herself,&#8221; Conway added, &#8220;Instant fame brings instant chaos as I well know.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Conway was in disbelief that Lorenz had thrown her daughter out to her 200,000 Twitter followers &#8220;any one of whom could now paw through the daily details of my teenage daughter\u2019s life and whatever thoughts and emotions might have passed through her active mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Recently, Lorenz has found herself in a new string of controversies after the moral-less hall monitor <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/after-doxxing-libs-of-tik-tok-taylor-lorenz-complains-that-her-family-was-doxxed\">doxxed and harassed the owner of Libs of TikTok<\/a>, a page dedicated to exposing radical leftists by posting their own words and videos. Lorenz then claimed that she was harassed by a Drudge reporter in retaliation, <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/taylor-lorenz-walks-back-allegations-of-online-harassment-against-drudge-report-editor\">allegations she later walked back<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Following the initial panic that ensued after Lorenz\u2019s thread, Conway recalled her countless attempts to reach out to her husband George Conway to help alleviate the situation, and having her distressed calls and texts to him ignored, &#8220;He would not answer another call or take any of my desperate texts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Her daughter seems to be keenly aware that her fame is intertwined with politics, with her TikToks referencing Trump, her mother, or politics in general averaging 100-500% more engagement than her other videos. To date, Claudia\u2019s most popular TikToks have consistently been those bashing her mother or Trump, a tactic she learned from Lorenz\u2019s original reporting. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Unfortunately, some reporters seem to envy the attention Lorenz received after using Conway\u2019s child as media bait and are following in her footsteps, exploiting the children of Republicans for clicks. One Dallas newspaper tried to copy\/paste the Lorenz model, <a href=\"https:\/\/cms.thepostmillennial.com\/p\/f5174c04-2333-4dcc-a0d0-f559ea72a759\/Kellyanne%20Conway%20slams%20Taylor%20Lorenz%20for%20pushing%20daughter%20into%20public%20eye\">targeting Ted Cruz\u2019s 13-year-old daughter over TikTok videos she made disagreeing with her father\u2019s politics<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Even the opportunities Conway\u2019s daughter received through the fiasco were ripe with political undertones. Claudia landed a spot on <em>American Idol<\/em>, where they too capitalized on the drama, highlighting her parents as &#8220;high profile political figures.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Shortly after her daughter\u2019s exploitation by Lorenz and the Media for political points, Conway left her position aiding President Trump to spend more time with Claudia and her other three children. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section data-v-f313b7e6=\"\">\n<p>Taylor Lorenz has yet to comment on Conway\u2019s new book<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Untitled-Memoir-Be-Confirmed-Threshold\/dp\/1982187344\">.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kellyanne Conway, former special counselor to President Donald Trump, is back in the political spotlight with her new memoir Here\u2019s The Deal.
