As we reported earlier today, George Conway, Kellyanne Conway’s Never Trumper husband, attacked Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), tweeting that she was “lying trash.”
.@EliseStefanik is lying trash. Please give to her opponent, @TedraCobb. https://t.co/NDstzv2Qgr

Conway is either ignorant or lying about Stefanik. Republicans didn’t say she wasn’t allowed to talk at all, they said she was shut down, improperly by Schiff, when Nunes tried to yield her the balance of his time, a normal practice of the House. But Schiff claimed this violated the October 31 resolution that allowed him dictatorial powers of the proceeding and was itself outside the norms of practice.
Once again, Adam Schiff flat out REFUSES to let duly elected Members of Congress ask questions to the witness, simply because we are Republicans. His behavior is unacceptable and he continues to abuse his Chairmanship. Watch ?? pic.twitter.com/qm9Uj8tiHO

But Conway didn’t let up there. He continued to stump for Stefanik’s Democratic opponent, Tedra Cobb, helping her raise money and followers.
Instead of calling him out for calling a woman “trash,” folks on the left endorsed his actions, even starting a hashtag against her, calling her “trashy,” showing how empty their claims are to caring about women or being against abusive men.
And Conway managed to make it even worse. He spread a fake picture of her, that showed her in the hearing room, with a pout, allegedly giving the camera the finger.
In his ongoing quest to blindly attack @EliseStefanik, George Conway (@gtconway3d) happily shared what appears to be a photoshopped picture of her. pic.twitter.com/CaBpF5bNqO

But Conway tried to justify it anyway.
But the fact that she shamelessly and brazenly lied in a ridiculously trashy gaslighting stunt is indisputably real. https://t.co/62bhPiaHvZ

Fair.

George Conway also retweeted a post that referred to Elise Stefanik as “an asshole.” He’ll be back on TV and given any print platform when impeachment proceedings continue last week, almost guaranteed: https://t.co/TzAEXo5c7b

While those on the left appeared to endorse Conway’s offensive tweets, others called him out.
Sharing a doctored photo of a Member of Congress just because you don’t like her politics is disgusting. @BrianJOMalley here is your garbage tweet verses the REAL photo. Shameful. pic.twitter.com/hZC9B6ZjvX

It is apparently not enough for this man, supposedly a respected lawyer, to dispute Stefanik’s claim of unfair treatment. No, he must denounce her as “trash.” What does that say about him? https://t.co/RBxLfXF6wi

And Stefanik shot back at Conway.
And for you @gtconway3d – the one thing I’ve NEVER been called in my life is TRASH.
You need serious help. My opponent Taxin’ Tedra can have your sick mysogynist support.
