I just finished reading a 20 page op-ed by George Conway (husband of Kelly Anne)

[pink]

He pulls no punches. He states how Trump is unfit for office and states many, many reasons as to why. One is left wondering what his and his wife's pillow talk consists of.

I wholeheartedly recommend it

[pink]

1. I forgot to mention

The op-ed is called "Unfit for Office" and it was written for The Atlantic.

38. Thanks

I'm obsessive-compulsive, so I really like completeness.

27. Thank you

For the link and a big welcome to DU!

[Hal Zerozerozeronine]

39. Thank YOU!

2. He loses all credibility by sleeping with Trump's paid liar--money that benefits HIM too.

I can get his style of rant from better never-Trumpers than him.

[pink]

3. Still a good read though

He mentions many instances that I knew about but had forgotten.

[FakeNoose]

22. Sure - how do you think he gets most of his info?

Kellianne is closer to George's opinion than some people might think. She's paid to lie for Chump, but her husband gets the truth for free.

[NanceGreggs]

4. The 'pillow talk' ...

... probably consists of a mutual hatred of Trump - and probably a lot of laughs over his stupidity.

Kellyanne's job is to 'protect and defend' The Dotard, and she does that job well. She stutters, sputters, and out-talks all comers, and adheres to the talking points she believes are his best defence.

She doesn't have to believe a word she herself says - she just has to push the product she was hired to sell.

[pink]

5. I think you're right Nance

I'll tell you what though, she has aged considerably over the last 3 years. It makes you wonder if the money she gets for her job is really worth it.

[BigmanPigman]

7. She was on Morning Joe a while ago and after she praised

the fucking moron on TV she said to the hosts, "Now I have to take a shower". She is doing it for the money.
No self respect.

[lunatica]

11. That theory may be correct

But it doesn’t make sense that her husband would be so vociferously critical of him.

I’ve never thought she was a true believer, but she is a very ambitious person. To me that makes her very self centered. I think it’s possible George loves her and the family and that she’s letting him do all the work while she works on her resumé. I’m pretty cynical, I know.

It would probably turn her into a better person if she became a pariah, but I’m sure there are plenty of people who would love to have her as their attack dog.

[True Blue American]

30. Kelly Anne hated

Trump when working for others.

In other news Rick Perry is leaving.

[NewJeffCT]

31. Yes she did

I think she was working for Ted Cruz and made a comment similar to Hillary's Deplorables comment about Trump supporters.

[True Blue American]

32. She was.

[dreamland]

29. Either way, she is still helping spread lies

Lies that have hurt our democracy and our freedoms. Whether it is her job or not, she is complicit. George is just trying to balance the equation by given them an ”out" should there be any action against them.

[JonLP24]

6. His wife draws an income working for Trump

That income supports that household. I guess I just don't understand these kind of relationships.

8. KellyAnne was born into a mob family. Giuliani too. MF45 is a mob $ launderer.

They’re all fucking criminals.

Lincoln’s Bible on Twitter lays out all of the mob connections.Did you know that Manafort is a mobster too?

10. Well, that certainly provides some answers

My dad always used to say that one could tell a lot about a person by noticing with whom they associated.

[CottonBear]

12. Yep. She's a mob princess. MF45's grandpa Drumpf worked for the mob.

The MF45 misadministration is a mob crime syndicate.

[global1]

13. I've Always Said If You Want To Understand The Trump Administration....

re-watch The Godfather movies.

[dalton99a]

17. She doesn't need a job for food and shelter.

The Conways are worth $40 million. They recently bought an $8 million mansion in Washington, DC.

[JonLP24]

18. I was saying that he benefits in some way from the income she makes from working for Trump

or I don't understand how much is divided among rich couples. I enjoyed reading his op-ed but it would seem to be more effective urging his wife to do something or quit. Like I said I don't understand it.

[Roland99]

14. Fuck him. He's in The Federalist Society and helped get Kavanaugh on the bench

[NurseJackie]

15. That marriage AND the Carvill/Matlin marriage are things I'll never understand.

That marriage AND the Carvill/Matlin marriage are things I'll never understand. Maybe they never talk about politics at home. Maybe politics doesn't mean as much to them as it does to me... perhaps they view it as a hobby or a game (rather than life and death).

Or, maybe the sex is good. Maybe they're all freaks and can't find what they need elsewhere (or don't want to start looking.)

[Ilsa]

19. George Conway is a Conservative. He and KellyAnne

are identical in everything but supporting MF45.

[NurseJackie]

20. It must be love. She's no prize herself.

[beachbumbob]

16. I believe Kellyanne is feeding husband George all the inside info, wouldn;t that

be ironic, she's been working to get trump tossed out all this time?

[UniteFightBack]

26. I tend to believe this too. nt

[pink]

37. agree 100% n/t

[peggysue2]

24. Yes, yes, his last name is Conway and he's married to the odious Kellyanne

However, the article is worth a read. It's a sobering analysis of Trump's instability and basic unfitness for the job. No grand surprises here but it's thoughtfully written and researched.

[Ferryboat]

34. The article brings

Up so much that I have forgotten in the deluge of another day another jaw dropping revelation.

[peggysue2]

35. I agree!

It really is a tutorial on everything we've witnessed over the course of the last 3+ years. You forget the details with the nonstop barrage of craziness and chaos. Which is partly by design, methinks.

[New Breed Leader]

25. how the hell are they still married?

[lapfog_1]

28. I imagine they don't talk much

I think its mostly hate sex

[Golden Raisin]

33. I suspect they are in this together purely as a

money-making business venture. Sort of publicly role-playing good cop/bad cop, while raking in publicity and big bucks when they eventually write their tell-all books. If he leaves/divorces her I might pay more attention to him. They remind me of the Macbeths.

[Pluvious]

36. Re Kellyanne...

My guess is that - besides the nice salary we pay her - she's been working contemporaneously on her massive "insiders" book, and is planning to be a high priced consultant for the movies and shows to follow.

[Grammy23]

40. While this is little lengthy for many readers (remember we live in a sound bite age)

It does catalog tRump’s crimes and lies rather nicely. In case anyone has forgotten or just been overwhelmed by his misdeeds, Conway lists them. It is rather stunning, when taken together, that he has lasted this long in office. Just adds more evidence that this is a complex situation that goes far beyond just tRump. There are many things to think about as Congress moves cautiously ahead with impeachment steps. But one thing that seems pretty clear is that just removing tRump won’t be the end of our woes.
