Kellyanne's interview with Maria B the other day – I know this was discussed at the time, and I'm sorry I don't know how to embed, but I just watched the interview last night and have been thinking about it ever since.

What struck me most–beside's Kellyanne's incredible self-command and grace under fair pressure from Maria–was the precise way she spoke about George and about her priorities:

1) Her #1 priority is her "four school aged children" - all choices will ultimately be to protect them.

2) When pressed about DJT insulting GC publicly, she said, Well George attacked him. And then she said,

3) It was NOT LIKE GEORGE to do this, at least through the time when she took the WH job. She emphasized more than once that this was out of character for him. Sadly, Maria didn't pursue WHY George had begun acting out of character. But this is important!

4) She advertised his professional accomplishments (trying to debunk, without saying so, DJT's suggestions that he's a professional loser, bitter he can't compete).

Do you see what I see? According to Kellyanne, SOMETHING HAS CHANGED WITH GEORGE, and to me, husband-jealous-of-wife just doesn't quite cut it, at least not at this magnitude.

–Is he being blackmailed or leveraged?

–Is he having a mental health issue?

–Is he having a drug/addiction issue?

If he were merely an awful, bitter husband, I don't believe Kellyanne would have emphasized how his assholic conduct was so out of character. She would have stuck with the other deflections (which she also used, It's private, Ask him, I just focus on my kids and work).

What if we are not watching an asshole husband with TDS who can't stand his wife's success – but instead we are watching an attempt to weaken POTUS by leveraging the husband of one of his team? If this were true, then the Trump attacks on George (Don Jr, DJT, Erik) are an attempt to defang the leverage, by saying, This loser's attacks don't embarrass us, he's a putz. It's the only way they can help Kellyanne AND George–and Kellyanne's #1 priority, her children.

Go back and look carefully at her exact words.

Apologies if other anons have already pointed this out and I missed it.
