Kellyanne Conway explodes in catfight w/ CNN Dana Bash over spouses tweet (VIDEO)

Kellyanne Conway got into a pretty contentious catfight with CNN's Dana Bash over Conway's husband tweet. It was clear that Dana Bash was not going to let double-talking Conway spin the question into a faux sexism debate.

Dana Bash did not allow Kellyanne Conway to convert a legitimate debate into one that implied the host was somehow sexist for the question.

That's the way arguments between women are often denoted, as these are assumed to be hissy and screechy; and it's sexist and demeaning. You might want to change your wording.

For the longest time they walked on eggshells around anyone connected to Cheeto. Everyone was afraid of getting him ticked off. Well guess what? He's ticked off no matter what you say, so you might as well tell the truth.

clutching routine is an old repub move. Her husband has expressed his views in PUBLIC — it is not unfair to bring them up. She is one of the top Trump idiots, who spends all of her time lying to the world about Trump’s greatness and arguing that everyone should support him without question, and yet she is married to someone who very vocally criticizes Trump on Twitter. So Kellyanne is trying to sell something that the person closest to her isn’t even buying — so why should we be expected to buy it? If her husband was a private citizen I’d say fine — don’t bring him up. But this case is totally different. And Kellyanne didn’t even attempt to be gracious.

The gasp, “oh my god you went there” routine is something Kellyanne does all the time to deflect from real questions and attempt to play the victim. Her snide remarks about “oh are we going there now” are ridiculous posturing when her own idiot boss spend the entire campaign going after people’s spouses (Ted Cruz’s wife and her looks compared to Melania for just one. There were many examples).

Regardless of the subject
Kellyanne talks over the host getting her points across and the host says you are welcome back any time
Yes she got pissy but so what
Whatever works for her
She has no shame

All you do is direct traffic to your website.

Even your sig line is all about self-promotion.

What's funny is she would love to be WH Comms Director, but Trump won't have her.

from having to defend the person she works for. I guarantee she knows he is a psychopath and doesn't believe in most things he is doing. The wear and tear from having to keep this act up day in and day out is probably not healthy for her. I don't agree with kellyanne, nor do i feel sorry for her, but she needs to get out of that administration.
