The media would have us believe that ConwayConway are just like MatlinCarville.

To hell with that.

Both Conway’s are Republican assholes. Whereas with MatlinCarville, Matlin is the only Republican asshole. Carville is a Democrat.

So, no it is not the same. We have not seen this dynamic before. We have never seen this spectacle before in any way.

Damn the media sucks. Alternative facts spewed for the lying Kellyanne.

that said that George Conway was countering his wife's BS with his own to convince conservatives that there is still enough sanity within the GOP to stick with the party. He may not espouse Trump's methods but he is all in on the message.

Makes me wonder if Trump and the Conways are putting on an act.

If not, what kind of husband would so publicly oppose someone his wife is so clearly passionate about? While I'm in agreement with anything Mr. Conway wants to throw the President's way, I dont understand doing so when your wife is part of the inner circle.

Mr Conway seemingly doesnt care how his public attacks on Trump--true, though they are!--may reflect on his wife or affect how she feels. It seems very unloving.

And I agree Matlin and Carville a rent the same situation. I never saw them being mean to one another. Certainly there was spirited debate. And by all appearances, the marriage is good.

... but I am still struggling to understand why this is important enough to merit any discussion or speculation.

I haven't seen any media "who would have us believe" anything. They've reported on his tweets, and they've reported on her response.

So what?

meant to spice things up and keep things “interesting”. There is a deceptive, distractive and deceitful purpose in everything this shit-show does. Don’t believe any of it, including the Conway v Conway crap.
