Donald Trump’s new campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, claimed Sunday that the GOP presidential nominee does not personally insult people.

George Stephanopoulos, host of ABC News’ “This Week,” showed Conway a series of video clips of her attacking Trump while she was supporting Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) during the primary. (Conway ran a super PAC backing Cruz’s candidacy.)

In one of the excerpts, Conway said she was not backing Trump because he “hurls personal insults.”

Asked whether she stood by her remarks, Conway interpreted the question to be about whether she continues to be against personal insults as a matter of principle, not whether she maintains her criticism of Trump.

(further into article)

Conway went on to deny that Trump engages in that behavior despite her past assertions to the contrary. Well, he doesn’t hurl personal insults,” she said, before changing the subject to Trump’s pitch to African-Americans earlier this week.

1. The Trump campaign is a big liars club

Truth is not enough.

2. good point..I wonder if she teaches her children.. to tell the truth..(she mentions them in article)

“I do and the reason is I don’t like when people hurl personal insults,” she said. “That will never be my style, I’m a mother of four small children, it would be a terrible example for me to feel otherwise.”

5. It's been fact-free from the get-go

yup

[yardwork]

3. I see a campaign ad for Hillary.

[jpak]

4. Wow - bald-faced easily fact-checked lies

Unfucking believable.

[LiberalLovinLug]

27. I almost admire them for that ability

And they do it with a wide smirk on their faces.

But they do it because it actually works, at least to some degree. Its an odd social phenomenon that Joseph Goebbel first noticed and they have taken it to another level. If you say something with a lot of confidence, by actually convincing yourself of the truth of it no matter how dubious, and never back down, many in the public can and will be snookered. George W knew this, Trump knows this. Combined with our ability to forget easily...George W who?, and this pheno works like a charm every time.

6. Facts never get in the way of Republicans.

Kellyanne Conway is a professional dissembler and liar, and knows with certainty HER media will never question her assertions - will, in fact, make them mainstream through unquestioned repetition.

For Trump supporters, "hurling insults" is not an issue - letting the "liberal media" criticize Trump is the issue.

7. Everything is recorded and can be replayed in a snap. These people

are pathetic. But Trump hires all the best people .

8. Good to know. rec, nt.

[Botany]

9. Trump on Rosie O'Donnell

"I called her a pig and a degenerate."

[PatSeg]

10. I'm so, so glad to hear that

I must have been listening with my bad ear this past year. Whew!

[awoke_in_2003]

11. You mean to say that the media

is coming to understand this marvelous new invention called video? And they realize that things can be archived and played back at a later date? About fucking time, douche nozzels.

[Blue Idaho]

12. Kellyanne is a hired gun.

She will believe anything you pay her to believe.

[The Wizard]

13. So let's get this straight

Crooked Hillary is a term of endearment. Yeah right. Kellyanne is very good at lying without compunction. It's in the Repubic DNA.

[TheBlackAdder]

14. Of course he does. Since he's half orangutan and half human, he's evolved beyond feces hurling.

[jaxind]

15. Why, Oh Why...

Why in the world is the media so pathetic??! I'm just a lay person, not a professional journalist, but I could have done better questioning! When she said that she is a mother and wouldn't want her children to be exposed to people that are hurtful, and then she goes to say that Trump doesn't hurl insults, that is when George should have said "OK, so you are fine with your children seeing trump mock a disabled man?" And then when they talked about the outreach to blacks, she said that facts matter, George should have come back with "OK...give me one fact where Donald has done anything to help minorities. He certainly wasn't helping them when he wasn't allowing them to live in his buildings." And, now I just watched the whole video, and when she said that trump can't release the tax return because he's being audited, why didn't George say "Look, the IRS has said that doesn't matter...he can release the returns while he's being audited!" Pathetic journalists!!

[jmowreader]

16. "They're not insults. They're personal observations."

"Mr. Trump only called Rosie O'Donnell fat in hopes she will go on a diet and live longer."

'Tell us about the Crooked Hillary thing.'

"No public figure who's been investigated as many times as Hillary has is honest. You know that."

'Donald Trump has been investigated more than Hillary has.'

"Mr. Trump is a successful private businessman. He is as honest as the day is long."

'Didn't he go bankrupt four times and almost lose Doral National Golf Course because he tried to screw the paint contractor out of the price of a new Corolla?'

"Crooked Hillary refuses to help out in Louisiana and Mr. Trump ran right down there to pitch in. Why won't you Hill-shills in the media talk about that? Huh? Why are you all haters?"

[hamsterjill]

17. Yet more proof that Ms. Conway's loyalties

And services are available to the highest bidder.

It always fascinates me that, when confronted with irrefutable video evidence, the likes of Ms. Conway lie their way out of answering a question directly.

[lastlib]

18. In other news, Kellyanne Conway says black is white......

white is black, rich is poor, light is darkness, freedom is slavery, and war is peace. (she's practicing to be Minister of Truth for the Trumpolini regime.)

[Spitfire of ATJ]

19. This is what you get when egomaniacs believe they can dictate reality.

[onecaliberal]

20. Pathogical lying is a prerequisite for being a republican. The press standing by and not calling

Them out on the lies, an entirely different matter.

[uppityperson]

21. His words on tape speak louder than your wish to deny them

[Rex]

22. What a bunch of two faced worms. SO does Dump get a new campaign managers every week?

Pathetic, Dumps campaign is so fucking sad...he has no chance in hell.

[sofa king]

23. It's gonna be a great week.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

24. Tell that to Kim Novak

Kim Novak has condemned cruel jabs about her appearance at the 2014 Oscars as 'bullying.'

The 81-year-old has spoken out about how critical remarks by Donald Trump and others about the way she looked had crushed her, but later encouraged her to speak out in protest.

'It really did throw me into a tailspin and it hit me hard,' the actress said in a telephone interview on Thursday, after she released an open letter posted on Facebook in response to the attacks, explaining that she 'feels like she has a mission' to stand up for others in her position.
(…)
'For days, I didn't leave the house, and it got to me like it gets kids and teenagers [who are attacked],' she said.
