George Conway rips Trump over tweet about Obama's '57 states' gaffe
The Hill ^ | 09/15/18 | JOHN BOWDEN

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway's husband, George Conway, took aim at the president on Twitter Friday over President Trump's criticism of his predecessor, former President Obama.

In a tweet, George Conway, a conservative lawyer, criticized Trump for mocking Obama for a 2008 gaffe in which he mistakenly said he visited "57 states" during his first presidential run.

"When President Obama said that he has been to '57 States,' very little mention in Fake News Media. Can you imagine if I said that...story of the year!" Trump had written in his tweet.

Conway responded on Twitter, saying that there is a "huge difference" between Obama's mistake and Trump's "witless prevarication on virtually all topics, large and small."

"Needless to say, there’s a huge difference between an isolated slip of the tongue and ceaseless, shameless, and witless prevarication on virtually all topics, large and small," Conway responded.

Conway has frequently criticized Trump on social media, despite his wife's position at the White House.

Earlier this month, Conway retweeted a controversial anonymous New York Times op-ed warning that Trump is a dangerous and amoral leader.

Both Conways were the subjects of an interview in The Washington Post last month in which Kellyanne Conway stated that "part" of her husband "thinks I chose Donald Trump over him."

In the same interview, Kellyanne Conway called her husband's criticism of the president "disrespectful" to her.

“I think it’s disrespectful,” she said. “I think it disrespects his wife.”

What is also missing here, is the fact that “slip of the tongue” is not an excuse when something is said by a Republican. Republican slips of the tongue are treated very differently than Democratic ones. Trump’s criticism is entirely valid.

Except he wasn't mocking Obama dingbat. He was mocking the Devotional Lying Leftist Media for "swallowing a camel" when it comes to Leftist politicians like Obama but "straining at a gnat" when it comes to guys like Trump.

Get a clue Conway, you dork.

“between an isolated slip of the tongue “

There are 57 muslim States. That wasn’t a slip of the tongue. That was an admission of Obama being a muslim.

Mary Matalin/James Carville. Kellyanne Fitzpatrick/George Conway. What is it with these conservative women? It’s one thing to have a few differences with a spouse, but quite another to be political, moral, and spiritual opposites.

"Understatement. Kellyanne, dump this petty, jealous loser."

It's a far cry from disagreeing with your spouse and getting a divorce as anyone who is married for a long time knows.

But he is a disrespectful jerk.

"an isolated slip of the tongue"?

Are you nuts?

How does an American "accidentally" say "57 states" instead of "50 states"??? He doesn't! That moron doesn't even know how many states there are.

It's a far cary from disagreeing with your spouse and deliberately and consistently embarrassing her in public and undermining her work.

“witless prevarication”

“You can keep your doctor”
“I didn’t call the Islamic State a ‘JV’ team”
“More young black men languish in prison than attend colleges and universities across America”
“The Keystone pipeline is for oil that bypasses the United States”
“The day after Benghazi happened, I acknowledged that this was an act of terrorism”
“If you like your health-care plan, you can keep it”
