Ho Boy: Kellyanne Conway Says Her Husband Should Air His Grievances In Private; Stresses That She's "Italian Catholic" and Very Protective of Her Children

She later cautions about outsiders acting as "marriage experts" opinion on the state of their marriage, but I have a hard time hearing this as something other than "Yeah, George and I have problems, but we're trying to keep up appearances for the sake of the children, and George is making that difficult with his acting up."

An interesting thing, maybe a tell. She says that George agreed to come to DC and joined a law firm as a "partner." Then she corrects herself and says he's "of counsel."

Now, "of counsel" is a designation for someone who's too senior to be an associate but who's not a partner. There are different reasons for being "of counsel" -- like maybe you want to practice law but you don't want to buy into the firm or you don't want to bill the hours a partner is expected to bill -- but it's generally considered, well, not quite at the same level of "partner."

I think it's interesting she corrected herself here, when no one in the world would have batted an eye at calling him a "partner," even if he wasn't that.

It's like... well, a dig. Maybe.

Hard to watch. Cringey! Therefore: Most recommended!
