he photo, taken Monday, shows White House counselor Kellyanne Conway perched on a couch in the Oval Office as President Trump stands behind his desk and representatives of a number of historically black colleges and universities gather around him.
Conway is kneeling on the couch. Other pictures of the same moment show she has her shoes on.
This has, of course, inflamed the (mostly liberal end of the) Internet.
THE HORROR.
SHE IS DISRESPECTING THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT.
HOW COULD SHE.
And so on and so forth.
This tempest in a teapot is, in a word, dumb. In two words: incredibly dumb.
[Kellyanne Conway kneeled on a couch. The Internet went insane.]
First of all, every party not in the White House likes to express shock and outrage at the way the other side is treating this hallowed job and office. Republicans were incensed when Bill Clinton and Barack Obama treated the Oval Office with slightly less formality than did Ronald Reagan, who, famously, always wore a suit coat in the Oval Office.
Obama puts his feet on the desk! Obama throws a football!
This is all par for the Internet outrage/partisan police.
It was dumb when Republicans leveled the charge of Obama and Clinton disrespecting the White House. It is equally dumb now.

The Dems are deranged.
Remember when that crappy Obama put his filthy shoes up on the desk in the oval office. Now he was a garbage person.
Fake News is more concerned about Kellyanne putting her knees on a sofa than Monica on her knees under the desk.
Self-proclaimed richeous indignation.
AKA liberal Bull shit
Bill Clinton; “Lookie who is under my desk ...” The moral midget hypocrites
Dummycrat presidents have sexually abused interns in the Oval Office and the lamestream media refused to criticise.
Keep on trucking Kellyanne.,you’re doing a wonderful Job
I think this controversy is helping Trump.
Truth is she shouldn’t be putting her feet on anyone’s couch much less the Oval Office. Another dumb move by her.
That being said it’s not the end of the world.
But dang! Use your head!
Of course it’s dumb, that’s all the liberals have at this point - dumb.
I don’t understand how anyone can sit on a couch with her legs folded under like that. I can’t imagine how it would be comfortable. What is she, some kind of contortionist?
My liberal son is getting sick of all the stupid issues.
He’s getting to the point that he hates the Democrats more. He knows they lie and over-react.

Editor: "Quick! Get over there and see if anybody puts their feet on the furniture or doesn't use a coaster! I want names!"
Maybe she has roids.
The elite libs couldn’t stand to see Trump with the heads of the historically black colleges. They needed something to complain about.
