Just watched the George Conway interview from

Morning Joe. The guy criticized everyone but his wife. His wife was and Is a major player in Trump attempted coup, money gift. She herself wrote a book trying to capitalize on her own grift, instead of do what was right and expososing her boss. George Conway is doing his own grift. I'm sick and tired of these shows having him on and not calling him and his creepy wife, out. She knew the coup plan, and I bet he did too. Can't remember the timeline, but the daughter went off the rails. Then everyone needed family time. Media needs to call him out or stop having him on. Creepy SOB, reminds me of a dead clown without makeup.

The fact he's right about MF45 seems to cause them all to turn a blind eye to his wife's continuing grift with MF45.

The kind that adheres to the idea of no divorce, ever. A Catholic who's a conservative would be very traditional about something like that.

7. ScabbyAnne is publicly hitting him at this point. From her book:

Jun 2022
“For the first time since George and I had gotten serious, I was looking at the possibility that the man who had always had my back might one day stab me in it,” she wrote.

In her book, Conway recounts her husband telling her, “You have ruined yourself and you have embarrassed this family” by working for Trump.

“I’ve embarrassed this family?” Conway shot back. “You abandoned me for Twitter and she’s not even hot.”

At the end of her book, Conway hit an inspirational note while simultaneously expressing doubt about her marriage.

“Democracy will survive. America will survive. George and I may not survive,” she wrote.


Leaking marital conversations and drama in a book... yikes.

I read somewhere that he said that working for TFG changed her in a way that made her unrecognizable to him.

I think he finally woke up and realized that she's always been a vicious, lying scumbag. He just hadn't seen it before.

He has a lower tolerance limit for the outright fascism of the Trump GOP. But he was balls to the wall for the Bush-Cheney neocons and the voter suppression laws that they started back in the Aughts.

That would explain some. I hope he's a little better than that. I wonder if he hates Trump because he thinks Trump f'd his wife? That would explain his hatred too. Selfish people, Selfish reasons.

About his wife and Trump. She played a major role in the near coup. Time for him to shake off her filth. I hope he's a moral man, but I'm just not there. He's still covering for Kelly Anne, so is media. I don't know why. It's really bugging me.

She had left White House in August and stated early on that Biden won. She commented after election that Trump had right to go to court but I haven't seen any reports that she had any role in advising or carrying out or even witnessing first hand Trump's attempts to overthrow election results.

defending her or her alternate facts. George Conway has been against trump for a long while before she even resigned. I didn't know how that marriage worked because they were at odds over that. They're now separated so I guess it wasn't working.

I'm no fan of either because they're both republicans, she a trumper republican. We should get our facts straight though and not go alternate ones like she does.

that he's been a never trumper for quite a while. Interviewing him is not interviewing her. I give him credit for being a stauch anti-trumper for a long time, but he's still a republican will be one when this is all over.

Even while KAC was serving in the White House, all the interviewers and George, pretended she didn't exist, weren't married, she wasn't a key Trump enabler. They're still doing it! Why? They never say, "Hey, George, what do you think about your wife's role in...?", "Your wife claims this or that, in her new book?". It's a huge elephant in the room, but no one goes there! It's beyond ridiculous at this point. It's been going on for years now. I don't get why the media are so willing to participate in the Conway charade.

That they not ask him about her, because she was where she was, politically, he was where he was, and any questions would only fuel tabloidesque speculations that neither they nor their children needed.

I didn't care about what he thought of her or what she was doing. He clearly was against much of what she was working for, and he spoke to that, rather than trashing her.

We get enough of mudfight nonsense on the cable news shows. No need to pile on more.

off limits to Conway in interviews. I mean he does have to go home to his wife and family. Him shredding trump and his admin while being a republican himself is quite a get in itself for an interviewer.

I hope his wife and daughter are getting the help they desperately needed. I don't know if I want to pile on because he's been pretty consistent from early on regarding tfg.
