Kellyanne Conway Blames CNN For Covering Russia Over Gun Control in Vicious Spat With Chris Cuomo

by Aidan McLaughlin | 9:45 am, October 5th, 2017

Kellyanne Conway appeared on CNN to face off with Chris Cuomo Thursday morning, and things got about as nuts as they can get on early-morning cable news, with the two engaging in a messy rhetorical fistfight over President Donald Trump’s response to Las Vegas and Puerto Rico — that at times got pretty personal.

Things kicked off with Cuomo asking Conway about Trump’s comments that now is not the time to talk gun control and mental health issues, asking “why not take this challenge on right now?”

Conway replied that Trump was focused on consoling the victims of the Las Vegas shooting on Thursday, before pointing out that “bump stocks” — the device that allowed the shooter’s near automatic fire — were declared legal by the ATF in 2010, when Barack Obama was president.

The White House counselor then seemed to blame Democrats like Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders and Sen. Elizabeth Warren for tweeting more about Russia than gun control, before turning her ire towards CNN: “It approximates CNN’s own coverage: your obsession with Russia has been to the exclusion of this conversation.”
