"He doesnt know these gentlemen": Kellyanne Conway lies to Fox News about Trump advisers linked to

‘He doesn’t know these gentlemen’: Kellyanne Conway lies to Fox News about Trump advisers linked to Russia



http://www.rawstory.com/2017/03/he-doesnt-know-these-gentlemen-kellyanne-conway-lies-to-fox-news-about-trump-advisers-linked-to-russia/

“Is the president of the United States upset that these fringe players are playing such a — have direct ties to Russia and have direct or indirect ties to him?” Kilmeade asked. “Is he mad at them?”

Conway said the Fox News anchor brought up an excellent point, and she denied that Page or Gordon had strong ties to the Trump campaign, and she refused to even speak Stone’s name — although the president has known him for years and shares a political mentor, Roy Cohn.

“In the case of Mr. Page and Mr. Gordon and some others, they really have very attenuated contacts to the campaign that I managed for the last three months,” Conway said. “I’ve spoken directly with the president and other senior officials about this. He doesn’t know these gentlemen, he didn’t work with them.”

In fact, Trump identified “Carter Page, Pd.D” in March 2016 as a member of his foreign policy team, along with Walid Phares, who met with the Russian ambassador in July with Flynn, Gordon and now-Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
