Kellyanne Conway‘s husband has slammed Omarosa Manigault‘s claim that President Trump used racial slurs against him, dismissing the accusations as “absurd” and “ridiculous.”
George Conway has made no secret of his criticism of the administration at times but adamantly disputed the former White House aide’s claim while questioning her credibility in a tweet.
“It’s absurd all around,” Conway tweeted Friday.
The allegation is not credible, and indeed is ridiculous, particularly in light of the timing of her departure from the White House—December 12, 2017. It’s absurd all around.

The dispute comes over a preview from Manigault’s upcoming book, “Unhinged: An Insider’s Account of the Trump White House” in which the former “Apprentice” star claimed Trump used derogatory terms for Filipinos in referring to Conway as a “f*cking flip” and a “goo-goo,” according to The Guardian.
She also claims she has secret tapes she made, as did former Trump attorney Michael Cohen, which prove the president used the racial slurs.
If Trump did use racial slurs to denigrate @gtconway3d — and it’s a giant if, given that Omarosa is the source of the story — it might have been this June 2017 tweet that set him off. pic.twitter.com/57P1LpGMr1

But her claims and credibility have been called into question given her abrupt departure from the White House in December.
Conway, a Yale-trained lawyer who represented Paula Jones in her lawsuit against former President Bill Clinton, has openly criticized Trump in the past, despite his wife position as White House counselor.
He continued to field responses to his comments on Twitter, doubling down that Manigault’s claim the president used the derogatory terms against him is “preposterous.”
No. There was one tweet, it didn’t criticize the travel ban, and it was clear at the time from my and others’ personal interactions with him that he didn’t hold it against me—not one bit. From what I saw and heard, any suggestion he would have used such slurs is preposterous.
