George Conway, the husband of senior President Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway, appeared on MSNBC Wednesday as a commentator to trash Trump and Republicans as part of the cable network’s coverage of the Democrat’s partisan impeachment inquiry hearing by the House Intelligence Committee. Conway said he was “horrified” and “appalled”.

Until today, Conway has kept his sniping at Trump confined to his Twitter account and occasional op-eds.

George Conway: “I’m horrified. I’m appalled…I don’t think I could have imagined a president, any president, engaging in this sort of conduct.”

Conway explained his reason for appearing, saying, “It’s the moment”, explaining he doesn’t watch TV news and does not want to be on television, adding, “I just don’t get why people can’t see this. And why people are refusing to see this. It’s appalling to me.”
Conway during a mid-day break in the hearing, “It’s the ultimate impeachable offense.”

Conway was still on the set on MSNBC as this article was published around 4:45 p.m. EST when he said that one reason Trump should be “removed” from office is because, in Conway’s opinion, he is incapable of understanding what he did wrong.
