Well, either Kellyanne Conway politely and respectfully let Meghan McCain know that the former “View” co-host had hurt her feeling after a recent event, or Conway repeatedly screamed at her while McCain pleaded ever-more-desperately to be left alone.
It’s hard to say which! It’s a classic case of “he said, she yelled like a banshee.”
Some backstage at a panel hosted by the Washington Post say that after the speakers — McCain, Conway and 2024 DNC Convention host Minyon Moore — left the stage, Conway approached McCain in the green room, “got right in her face” and told her “You’re disgusting! You hurt people.”
3 Meanwhile, pretty much everyone there agree that a stunned McCain just repeated, “You’re in my space. I’m uncomfortable,” in hopes that the former Senior Counselor to the President would move along.
It seems that Conway was taking the opportunity of appearing together on the panel — part of the Women’s Summit organized by Tina Brown — to let McCain know how she felt about McCain having called her now-over marriage to the Lincoln Project’s George Conway “gross” both on the “View” and on Bravo’s chat show, “Watch What Happens Live.”
Those with a more sympathetic recollection say Conway waited for the area to clear so as not to create an unnecessary spectacle, approached McCain and “calmly” said, “You have no right to speak about my marriage like that.”
But some enjoying a slightly different vantage point say that Conway was “shrieking like a banshee” and that McCain eventually said, at a loss for what to do, “What can I do to make you feel better?”
3 Here’s where accounts of the stunning scene really diverge. Some eyewitnesses say that McCain finally lost patience and said, “Do you have any idea how it felt to have Trump do what he did to my family?” — an apparent reference to the time in 2015 when then-candidate Trump said of her former POW father, the late Sen. John McCain, “He’s not a war hero. He was a war hero because he was captured. I prefer the ones who don’t get captured.” They claim Conway replied “I’m not Trump! I’m not Trump!” and that the retort took the wind out of her sails.
Other says that someone finally intervened.
Whew — how’s that for some alternative facts!
