George Conway argued Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House” that President Donald Trump himself is undercutting his allies’ ability to defend him in the impeachment inquiry.
A conservative lawyer and husband to White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, he said Trump’s claims that his call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky — which helped launch the impeachment inquiry — was perfect are “delusional” and “debilitating.”
“It’s delusional to say that the whistleblower was wrong in any significant respect,” he continued. “It’s delusional to say that the [intelligence community inspector general] said anything that was incorrect or acted anything but responsibly. And because it’s so delusional, the Republicans can’t wage any coherent defense.”
