"Kellyanne is asking everyone with connections to DC schools for help."

Trump's campaign manager Kellyanne Conway has expressed worry, albeit with a slight grin, that D.C. elites won't let her kids into private school when she moves there take on her job as counselor to the president.

Speaking with Richard Johnson on Page Six, Conway spoke about receiving some heckles from a few when seeing her kids, George and Claudia, perform a concert at Elisabeth Morrow School in Englewood, NJ, on Thursday night. Also in attendance was Alicia Keys, there to see her goddaughter perform.

"But after the concert, all the parents converged on Kellyanne, congratulating and sucking up to her," said one source. "Kellyanne is asking everyone with connections to DC schools for help."

According to Johnson, Conway spoke about some of her amusement over the experience of looking for schools.

"I would not characterize myself as ‘worried’ so much as amused by the silence and sighs on the other end of the phone when friends and allies have made preliminary inquiries on our behalf," she said.

On the doctrines of "diversity" and "open-mindedness" preached in so many elite D.C. schools, Conway joked, "For some, there is a comfort in sameness."

One silver lining she claims, however, has been "the flood" of help people have offered on both parties.
