Attorney George Conway described the Trump administration as a “shitshow in a dumpster fire” as a reason he did not take a post in the Justice Department last year.
Conway, who is married to White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, spoke to Yahoo News podcast Skullduggery in an episode released Friday to discuss his newly formed Checks and Balances, a group of conservative lawyers who came together to defend the Constitution. He also talked about why conservatives have looked the other way regarding some of President Donald Trump’s public statements and why he did not “feel comfortable being a Republican anymore.”
In explaining how he almost joined the Justice Department, Conway also cited some of Trump’s perceived missteps involving the Russia investigation as a reason for stepping aside from a possible job.
"The administration is like a shitshow in a dumpster fire," Conway said. "And then you got the [James] Comey firing. And then you have him going on TV saying I had Russia on my mind…I'm going to be in the middle of a department he's at war with. Why would anybody want to do this?"
Earlier in the episode, Conway said his new group was not formed solely because of Trump but that Checks and Balances might not have been formed had Trump not made it to the White House.
“We don’t specifically mention, use the T-word in our mission statement. It’s really not about any single individual. It’s about the principles. It’s about the rule of law… You know the power of truth, the independence of the criminal justice system, individual rights and civil discourse,” Conway said.
