‘He’s a Pig’: George Conway Tears Into Trump for Allegedly Telling Lawyer, ‘See You Next Tuesday’

 

George Conway called former President Donald Trump “a pig” on Friday after E. Jean Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan claimed Trump had used a cryptic reference to the word “c*nt” towards her following the Carroll defamation trial.

Reacting to Kaplan’s claim that Trump had told her he would “see you next Tuesday” – a phrase sometimes used as a more subtle way to call someone the c-word – Conway said:

It’s just appalling. I mean, he’s a pig, and the fact that he was president of the United States makes it all the more distressing. I mean, it was misogynistic. I mean, to call a woman that to her face and trying to be cute about it. I mean, it was just disgraceful and the kind of indecent conduct that you wouldn’t expect in any adult. I mean it was just– I wouldn’t even say it was teenage boy-level conduct. It was just utterly, utterly childish, and you know, it’s not that surprising that Trump does this. I mean, we know– we’ve seen him do all sorts of crude things over time.

Conway told Collins that the most recent incident “brought to mind” a controversy in 2019 when Trump “was congratulating a pair of female astronauts who had conducted an EVA, a spacewalk outside the space shuttle, and it was the first all-female EVA.”

He recalled:

He said, “Oh, this is the first time a woman’s ever been outside the space shuttle.” And then the astronaut, the female astronaut gently corrected him, and he clearly was taken aback. It was a very gentle, very respectful correction, and he starts to touch his forehead as if to scratch an itch, but he used his middle finger, and there was this huge controversy: “Was he really giving the finger to these astronauts?”

Conway concluded, “People gave him the benefit of the doubt, but I find it hard to give him the benefit of the doubt after seeing all of this conduct.”
