‘ABUSIVE CREEP’: George Conway Blasted For Smearing Elise Stefanik With Alleged Doctored Image, Calling Her ‘Trash’

George Conway, husband of White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway, faced intense backlash on Saturday for calling Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (NY) “lying trash,” and then promoting a doctored image of Stefanik flipping off a camera during yesterday’s House Intelligence Committee hearing of former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch.

Conway, who claims to be a conservative, has repeatedly targeted Stefanik online after Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) tried to yield his time to her during yesterday’s hearing and Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) refused to allow her to speak – which was in accordance with the rules during the 45-minute round of questions – but acted hostile toward her in the process of not allowing her to speak, which critics noted was a bad look for Schiff.
