that I don’t trust...mostly because he’s married to someone so duplicitous. I don’t know how you reconcile that.

The most famous probably being James Carville and Mary Matalin. Matalin is a supreme hack.

Do you view Carville's opinions as questionable because of his wife?

The Conways aren't even in different parties.

and it is a bit unusual but not unheard of to have two people in a relationship who are polar political opposites. James Carville’s opinions aren’t questionable because of it and that’s in part due to the fact that he’s been around for decades and we know who is is. What’s odd about the Conway’s is that they aren’t political opposites...they’re in the same party but one of them wants his wife’s employer unseated. I just find that detail more than unusual. Maybe it’s just that he hasn’t been as vocal as the other members about the desire to root out and defeat tRumpism...there’s just something that doesn’t sit right with me about George Conway. It’s just my opinion.

if it were any Republican doing exactly what Trump has been doing he would be fine with it. Trump is the only thing they don't like. Put any Republican asshole in Trumps place and they would have no objection to anything he says or does. He and his wife are agreeable in their beliefs, the only difference is she's lowered herself to work for Trump, George won't. He thinks he's better than Trump he thinks he has more class or whatever, I think they are the same.
