Trump says Kellyanne 'must have done some bad things' to George Conway

Last week, Kellyanne Conway, special counselor to President Trump, berated CNN's Wolf Blitzer on air for suggesting there were "issues" in her marriage to George Conway, a conservative Washington, D.C., lawyer and prominent Trump critic.
In a live phone interview with "Fox & Friends" Friday, Trump speculated about those same issues — and suggested Kellyanne Conway may to be blame for them.
The president did so virtually unprompted.
Trump was asked by "Fox & Friends" co-host Ainsley Earnhardt about George Conway's recent assertion Nikki Haley, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, is gunning to be his running mate in 2020.
"Kellyanne is great but she's married to a total wack job," Trump said. "She must've done some number on him, Ainsley. I don't know what Kellyanne did to that guy because I don't even know him. I met him for a second. He's got to be some kind of a nutjob because she must have done some bad things to him because that guy is crazy."
Trump did eventually address the question, saying, "Mike Pence is a great vice president — he's our man."
It's not the first time Trump has publicly disparaged George Conway, who has emerged as one of his most persistent critics.
Conway frequently uses his Twitter feed and newspaper op-eds to draw attention to what he calls the president’s malignant narcissism.
In March, for instance, he questioned Trump’s mental health, posting sections of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders to his Twitter feed.
Trump, in return, called George Conway “a stone cold LOSER & husband from hell!”
In her interview with Blitzer, the CNN host asked Kellyanne Conway to respond to George Conway's assessment that testimony of career diplomats in the first public impeachment hearings was damning for her boss.
“Where is the shame?” Kellyanne Conway said. “What you just quoted is said every single day by other voices, but you wanted to put it in my husband’s voice because you think somehow that that will help your ratings or that you’re really sticking it to Kellyanne Conway.
“And let me make very clear. You didn’t stick it to Kellyanne Conway,” she added. “I think you embarrassed yourself, and I’m embarrassed for you.”
EDITOR’S NOTE: This is hard to believe, but it’s not fake news. What an asshole! Blaming his most loyal and outspoken defender for her husband’s hatred of him is a new low. Kellyanne should quit and tell Trump she won’t lie for him anymore and for him to go and fuck himself.
