Donald Trump's campaign manager Kellyanne Conway doesn't get why young people are so freaked out over Trump winning the presidential election last week. In an appearance Wednesday night on Hannity, Conway slammed the coddling of college students post-election, noting how professors are excusing students from taking tests or offering college credit in exchange for protesting the election results.
"We're treating these adolescents and these millennials like precious snowflakes," Conway said. And really, she said: "What is the worst thing that can happen to them?"
Conway argues that the only thing millennials should expect under President-elect Trump is the creation of "25 million new jobs" and "millions of Americans" finally getting health insurance. Watch below. Becca Stanek
