Everyone is talking about this pretty crazy interview with Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway by Jake Tapper. Tapper is clearly miffed by the continued attacks that Trump is launching at the media, and at CNN, but it appears that the straw that broke the camel’s back was the Donald saying the media is lying about terror attacks.
Tapper really goes after Conway, who does her best to deflect and ignore the questioning, but he just goes on and on in a very contentious interview.
It’s a very long interview, it’s worth watching:

And here’s the second:
And the last part:

What I find interesting is that Conway is far from her regular combative self – at times she’s actually apologetic about the attacks on the media. But Tapper knows he’s on the right side of Trump’s odd conspiracy theory that the media is hiding terror attacks, especially after the absurd list of terror attacks the administration put out.
What I wonder is whether Trump sent out Conway to be so apologetic, or if she did this on her own. Because I can’t imagine that he’ll be happy with this performance.
