Biden Strategy Works As Flustered Kellyanne Conway Can't Defend Trump

Biden Strategy Works As Flustered Kellyanne Conway Can’t Defend Trump
Kellyanne Conway brought up Charlottesville during a Sunday morning interview, and her failed defense of Trump was that he was talking about statues, not racists.
Kellyanne Conway failed to defend Trump support of racists

Conway tried to claim that Trump was discussing monuments, not neo-Nazis when he said that there were fine people on both sides.

CNN’s Jake Tapper asked, “Who were these very fine people? Let me just set the stage here. It was called the Unite The Right rally, and it was formed by people like Richard Spencer who is a white supremacist. Friday was the tiki torch march. Saturday, Heather Heyer was killed. Who were the very fine people he was talking about?”


Kellyanne Conway answered with a word salad, “He was talking about the debate over moving statues and renaming parks.”

Tapper asked, “So he wasn’t talking about the weekend at all?”

The Joe Biden Strategy of Making This Election About Trump’s Character Is Working

Conway had no defense for Trump’s comments. The one she tried didn’t work, because it defied common sense. Trump’s racism and bigotry are baked into the perception of who Trump is with voters.

The Biden strategy of going after Trump’s character is working, and it has caused a shift that didn’t happen in 2016. The Trump team is on the defensive. They are trying to defend the indefensible, and the seeds are being sown for the 2020 election to be a referendum on Trump, and as Kellyanne Conway showed the playground bullies of presidential politics couldn’t handle being punched.

Not one Republican on the committee defended Trump or his actions. It was all attacking Cohen and/or Democrats.

Because nobody can really defend Trump

It would have seemed like she was getting down to the mudslinging level.

Now we know more and lack of character easily meshes with policy. Examples of no respect for the law now...a documented history of that. Sell out national security...his Baku project. On and on.

Almost all of it pure nonsense. When Smerconish tried to ask a question she’d just go off in a Gish Gallop of lies.
