George Conway sparred with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on social media this week, following the release of never-before-seen emails connecting President Donald Trump to convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.

Conway, a former conservative lawyer turned “Never Trump” activist, posted on Wednesday about the information dump, writing, “An important side note about today’s Epstein/Trump revelations.” He added:

They show that Todd Blanche’s questioning of Ghislaine Maxwell was either (a) completely incompetent; or (b) intentionally crafted not to elicit facts incriminating Trump.

Either way, he is not fit to serve as Deputy Attorney General of the United States.

Blanche, who previously served as Trump’s personal lawyer, raised eyebrows in recent months by visiting Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell in prison for a deposition, which was later made public. Critics sounded the alarm that Blanche may be looking to use Maxwell to exonerate Trump and offer her preferential treatment – up to a pardon – to do so. Maxwell was later moved to a more comfortable prison, which also sparked an outcry among critics, including Epstein victims.

Blanche replied to Conway, “George, you’ve never been confused for a trial lawyer, and these kinds of posts explain why. When I interviewed Maxwell, law enforcement didn’t have the materials Epstein’s estate hid for years and only just provided to Congress. Stop talking. It’s unbecoming.”

On Thursday, Conway hit back, “Dude, you didn’t even come close to asking a decent follow-up question of Maxwell. And I saw you at your boss’s criminal trial, you know, the one where he was convicted on 34 felony counts: You couldn’t cross-examine your way out of a paper bag.”
