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.

Kellyanne did a GREAT JOB making sure a photo of President Trump meeting with DOZENS of black academic leaders got much wider circulation than it would have otherwise...way to go, Mrs. Conway!
Indeed she did!
To remind us men (who - after all - can't do that) that they are women.
Regards,
Well, I sure am glad you asked!
(EXACTLY the same as yours!)

Bullschtein! The WSJ has become nothing more than politico with stock prices in the middle. Not worthy of consideration.
Instead, use Investors Business Daily. Honest, thought provoking articles and better data with which to make money with.
If she only had sex on it, that would have been ok.
And we all know in islam that showing the sole of your shoe to others is an insult.
But what do I know, an islamic president insulting America is chumy stuff.
Refresh my memory. How much hell was raised over Slick Willy getting hummers in the Oval Office. IIRC, all anyone heard from the presstitutes was crickets.
Is that Markie Post? I think so.
I was extremely disappointed she would stoop to that level.
Proof liberals are mysoginists. Conway was simply being feminine. They would rather see her with a burka.
Truly liberals are homophobic and islamophobic,mfearing to offend them every time,but what do I know.
Being a snowflake is to spread that phobia.
Exactly!!!!
The media is the opposition party. It’s not fair, but they are.
Bret Stephens is absolute SCUM. He’s another big chicken hawk neocon who can’t wait for WWIII.
No, as somebody else pointed out she was wearing her shoes at the time. But no harm no foul and, as a normal male, my reaction is an eyebrows raised “Whoa Girl, you are limber!” Any other aspects of my reaction I will simply not discuss here.
My current session on FR has been about two minutes. I have learned that President Trump likes ketchup on his steaks and Kelly Anne sits funny on the couch. Not a criticism of FR, just what passes for news these days.
I think she is cute! That’s very girlish. We are blessed to have her.
My first thought as well....
I am so glad you posted that. No one seemed to have a problem with the Husseins using the White House as a ghetto party pad. Just another day and another faux outrage by the tolerant ones.
“...Love it, Love it, Love it...”
Strongly agree.
Done this way now everyone is sure to see the pics of the black university heads with the president!!
Otherwise the picture would been buried in a backstory never to see the light of day - now everyone has seen it!!
Great strategy - Go Kellyanne.
What’s really upsetting the leftists is that Trump has a roomful of blacks that run the risk of being convinced to flee the Demoncrat plantation.
