Conway Unloads on Blitzer After He Asks Her to Respond to Her Husband’s Comments

‘You embarrassed yourself, I’m embarrassed for you’

EXCERPT:

BLITZER: “All right. That’s a serious allegation. A serious charge. He was using the power of the presidency, its most unchecked area, foreign affairs, to advance his own personal interest as opposed to the country’s.”

CONWAY: “That is his opinion. And we — I don’t think MSNBC was lacking for anti-Trump voices. And we’ve heard things like that said on CNN for three years. And we’ve heard things like that said on that network for three years and elswise. And where — honestly, where is the shame? Where is the introspection of people who have said for three years, respectfully, wolf, actually beginning in may of 2017, I’ll quote your wife’s husband right now, I won’t talk about your marriage but I’ll quote your wife’s husband. 2017 you asked Angus King, are we getting closer to impeachment? Does anybody ever feel badly about getting it so wrong? We sort of look the other way of how wrong everybody was here and elsewhere with the elections.

CONWAY: “I was on your network every single day as gracefully and respectfully as I could laying out the case as to why Donald Trump would beat Hillary Clinton. I have a living, breathing video catalog which is why I don’t worry about anything when people say, I always knew he’d win. I said it all the time. Really? Because you were sleeping when I was on TV in the morning and at night. So we have a leaving breathing catalog on CNN and elsewhere. We’re going back to Pennsylvania. It’s the same stuff all the time. What you just quoted is said every day by other voices but you wanted to put it in my husband’s voice because you think somehow that that will help your ratings or that you’re really sticking it to Kellyanne Conway. And let me be very clear, you didn’t stick it to Kellyanne Conway. I think you embarrassed yourself. And I -- I’m embarrassed for you because this is CNN now? I -- I looked up to you when I was in college and law school, I would turn on CNN to see what Wolf Blitzer had to say about war, famine, disruption abroad. I really respected you for all those years as someone that would give you the news and now it’s what somebody’s husband says on a different network."
