Washington (AFP) - US President Donald Trump's senior adviser Kellyanne Conway has come under fire after a picture of her casually kneeling on a couch in the Oval Office was widely shared on social media.
In an image captured by an AFP photographer, Conway appears on the couch with her shoes on as Trump poses for a photo with leaders of historically black colleges and universities.
Wall Street Journal columnist Bret Stephens was among those taking aim at Conway, suggesting that aides under previous administrations would have elicited even greater outcry.
"If Rice or Jarrett had sat like this in Oval Office, conservatives would have screamed themselves hoarse for weeks. Now we own trashy," he wrote, referring to previous presidential aides.
Trump's predecessor Barack Obama repeatedly took flak for photos in which he appeared to be relaxing.
Critics also chastised Obama for unbuttoning the previous Oval Office dress code that called for a suit jacket and a tie.
The image of Conway trended widely on social media, with several Twitter users berating her for what they described as a lack of respect in the Oval Office.

Your an idiot.
These people need to get a life.
The same hairy-legged lib bitches who cheer at the sight of vagina costumes, scream about the “right” to kill babies and carry around profane signs suddenly go all Victorian at the sight of KellyAnne in a dress kneeling on a sofa.
Aren’t they just fecking precious.
Make sure you get back to us with more of your sanctimonious lectures after you have run your own successful presidential campaign. Then we might actually take you seriously.
She can kneel on my sofa anytime.
This just shows that the left is completely obsessed with Trump and his entourage.
Perspective is key here... KellyAnne helped save Trump’s campaign and the Republic. This amounts to nothing.
Trump puts ketch-up on his steak and now this. It is time to declare the country is over.
That would have much more impact if you spell "you're" correctly
You are probably right.
Not quite an impeachable offense, but we don't know his policy on "mulligans" yet....
It is a trashy way to sit; maybe she was repositioning herself, but I am not sure why that would require her to have her feet on the seat. Something is a bit off with her. Dr. Savage seems to hate her.
That is a purely subjective comment. From everything I’ve seen she is a smart, classy and stylish woman.
Could you just be a little jealous?
Lack of respect? What are these critics, bigoted Islamophobes?
Kellyanne was simply honoring the diversity of Obama's immigrants by respecting the Oval Office the way Muslims do a mosque, by taking off their shoes.
I agree. Very unladylike and t is asking for criticism. She should be above that!
And she made sure millions of foaming liberals saw the CBC enjoying themselves with the POTUS. Mission accomplished.
That the DNC ran over Ellison, this is a great time to yank the CBC off the plantation.
OMG! America is DOOMED!
The media didn't seem to mind DeBummer using the Resolute Desk as a footrest.
I’m sure she meant no disrespect but she should have known better not to do this. The leftstream media will try to stir something up with this.
Yes, Obama and his minions did far worst things but they were protected by the so-called media.
I hate effin liberals. Not a word about Obastard!
Wth! Who remembers them not only jumping on Lioncoln’s bed but also selling it for campaign donations? I do! Fake News for fake outrage.
