After the flap over a non-scandal involving Kellyanne Conway having her feet on an Oval Office couch with her shoes on, Democrat Rep. Cedric Richmond, attempting to bring the humor at a Washington Press Club Foundation event, said of Conway “she looks very familiar in that position.” Richmond later claimed his “joke” was misinterpreted:

Chelsea Clinton came to the defense of Conway:
Despicable. I hope @KellyannePolls receives the apology she deserves-certainly never thought I'd write that & I mean every word. https://t.co/NmvFwNL21d

There was plenty of agreement with Clinton and praise for her taking the high road, but also many who were upset that Chelsea did what her mother claimed Dems do, which is “go high” when others go low:
@ChelseaClinton @KellyannePolls We should be focusing 100% on what Kellyanne has said and done. Not on some dumb joke made at her expense.

@ChelseaClinton @KellyannePolls sorry Chelsea love you and your mom but KellyAnn reaps what she sows. No pity for her at all.

@ChelseaClinton You're far too kind & gracious. Sadly, @KellyannePolls would never do the same for you

@ChelseaClinton @KellyannePolls when has Kelly Anne ever apologized for all of her lies???

@ChelseaClinton @KellyannePolls I disagree. Nothin to apologize for.The way she sat lacked respect,therefore familiar and damn forward.

@ChelseaClinton @KellyannePolls I disagree. Conway was completely disrespectful and asserting her white privilege.

@ChelseaClinton @KellyannePolls hmmm, no she doesn't. She repeatedly says and does disrespectful things and has no place in our government.
