CNN's Chris Cuomo has apparently broken Kellyanne Conway.
Kellyanne Conway has long been obsessed with Hillary Clinton, but CNN's Chris Cuomo may finally have sent Conway into a permanent spiral over the much more accomplished woman who beat Conway's client by 3 million votes.
During a scattershot interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo Wednesday night, Conway created another classic viral moment by bringing up Clinton, then claiming vociferously that nobody at the White House ever talks about Clinton:
CONWAY: So many people still can't get over the election results
CUOMO: Says my friend who can't keep Hillary Clinton's name out of her mouth. [...]
CUOMO: You're the ones who are frozen in that moment. That's why you bring up Hillary Clinton, that's why you're having her investigated. It's as obvious as it is counterproductive.
CONWAY: Chris, no, that's just no true, we don't care about her, nobody here talks about her.
This isn't the first time that Conway has pulled this exact trick of obsessively talking about Clinton while simultaneously denying she's doing it.
But this time, things took a turn for the super-weird. Following the interview, Conway took to social media to defend the interview in a series of defensive tweets that dragged into the following morning:
So fun to see the predictable heads exploding, but I should've finished that sentence #CuomoPrimeTime @CNN. "Nobody in the White House talks about Hillary Clinton" when noting whose presidential leadership = historic tax cuts & economic boom, reg reform, put ISIS in retreat.

"Nobody in the White House talks about Hillary Clinton" as a bipartisan, bicameral bill signing yesterday marks a big step toward getting big-killer fentanyl out of our country. https://t.co/jjFrP4tfvD

Hey @ChrisCuomo - when we are forced to think/talk about hrc it's because you and your colleagues can't let go of an election she/you lost. Sad!

"No one here talks about her"
when weponder who the first female POTUS will be;
applaud booming stock market, 401ks, jobs, manufacturing, business & consumer confidence;
rebuild military, veterans' benefits, infrastructure, border security, trade policy. https://t.co/fDhdgrrdY8

She was still talking about it when she went on "Fox & Friends" Thursday morning.
It's little wonder that Clinton has taken up residence under Conway's skin. Even with the aid of the Russian government, multiple interventions by then-FBI Director James Comey, and the complicity of media outlets like The New York Times, Conway's campaign still lost to Clinton by 3 million votes.
More than that, though, while Clinton remains one of the most accomplished women in American history, Conway will be remembered as an accessory to the most disastrous presidency in U.S. history, and a woman who literally redefined lying.
