Conway: Would Buttigieg Have Invited Soleimani Into the Wine Cave?
Townhall.com ^ | January 12, 2020 | Beth Bauman

During a Saturday night interview with Fox News' Jesse Watters on "Watters World," White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway discussed Democrats continually defending Iranian Qud Force General Qasem Soleimani. She accurately described them as "apologists," the Daily Caller reported. 

According to Conway, the 2020 Democrats had no idea what to think of President Donald Trump's order to kill Soleimani.

“I also think the 2020 crowd really didn’t know what to do with this because they’re stuck. Nobody cares what they say. Nobody pays attention to these town halls anymore," Conway explained. "They’re starting to feel the Bern again. The guy who beat Hillary in 22 contests in the primary is raising all this money and is in it to stay and if you’re a socialist on economic policies, we know what your foreign policy is. They’re becoming apologists for the bad guys and that’s very disappointing.”

In a mocking way, she asked about Mayor Pete Buttigieg's "wine cave," a reference to Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) claim that the South Bend, Indiana mayor shmoozes rich people.

“[Pete] Buttigieg, what did he want the president to do?” the White House counselor asked. “Is he going to invite Soleimani into the wine cave? We think that we know where Soleimani is and belongs. We think [Abu Bakr] al-Baghdadi is looking very lonely in hell and needed a roommate.”

Buttigieg has been an outspoken opponent of Trump's actions against Soleimani. These are just a few tweets:

We still don't know much about the president’s decision-making on Suleimani. But we do know that military efforts to defeat ISIS are now on hold. We know that Iraq's parliament voted to expel U.S. troops. We know that our embassy in Iraq remains under fire.

We are not safer.— Pete Buttigieg (@PeteButtigieg) January 5, 2020

Attacking cultural monuments in Iran would be a war crime under international laws. We are a nation of laws. We will act to keep America safe, not destroy cultural sites like the Taliban and ISIS have done. And my administration’s orders will not put our troops in legal jeopardy.— Pete Buttigieg (@PeteButtigieg) January 7, 2020

The world needs America. But not just any America.

It needs an America free from entrapment in endless war and prepared to focus on future threats.

It needs an America that doesn’t send troops into conflict without a clear understanding of what will come after.— Pete Buttigieg (@PeteButtigieg) January 9, 2020

The world needs an America ready to reverse the rise of authoritarianism while supporting democracy at home and among our allies.

It needs America to be the best it’s ever been, and now it falls to us to set the future of our nation.

Let us choose well.— Pete Buttigieg (@PeteButtigieg) January 9, 2020

Innocent civilians are now dead because they were caught in the middle of an unnecessary and unwanted military tit for tat.

What's interesting is Buttigieg just last week said that he would give President Donald Trump credit for taking out Soleimani once he learns how the president came to the decision and the implications of Soleimani's death.

I don’t think that Butt-plug is anywhere near as beautiful as the Arabian goats.

Don’t be so sure that someone like Mayor Pete or even Bernie could not win. I never thought Obama would win. Then, I met all of his brain-dead voters who are ruled by feeling or ‘sending the right messages’. They are roughly 54% of the population.

The hope is, most will be too discouraged to even vote, seeing how close Trump is to re-election.
Think about the people in New York who decided to re-elect
deBlasio. There are many Blue States, full of people like that, who will vote for an empty Breadbox if it has a Democrat bumper sticker on it.

Kellyanne amazes me on a regular basis, doing all she can to help and support the president. This,in spite of being married to George Conway, who despises the president and trashes her for being his helper.

One day, long after Mr. Trump has left office, we will find out what was really going on with the Conways and why Mr. Trump never just cut her loose due to the distraction. Maybe one of the Conway children will write a book about it.
“Daddy Dearest” might be the title.

She needs to be an SNL writer. I can see a skit with Buttgiggs husband saying “ Does that mean a reservation for two tonight?”

At this juncture it’s about what candidates the DNC and others have already decided would be the last two candidates standing. Recall what DNC head Debbie Swatzerman did to Bernie before, she was fired and promptly hired by Hillary......so it’s just a matter of musical chairs when they do get caught. And Debbie was ever present and sitting in on Pencilnecks basement hearings....

The voters are simply pawns they want to keep stirred up one way or another until the actual election... But the real power for elections is handled behind the scenes and this we don’t often see.

So voters ‘choice’ of candidates is done by others, with the exception of Trump who rightly appealed to the voters directly and called a spade a spade on both party sides. ..which is also why Bernie keeps rising back up.

A few weeks ago, SNL did a skit showing a parody of the Kellyanne-George Conway situation. I saw a few scenes online.
I have to admit, the scenes were surprisingly funny, well done and believable.

And isn’t G. Conway on some fringe “Christian” group opposing Trum, along with Romney, Kasich, etc.?

I guess he never read the verse saying that a husband is to love his wife as Christ loves the church.

If the jihadist terrorist "general" had wanted to enter the Fairy Princess' "wine cave", he wouldn't have asked.

I had not heard that Conway was allied with Mitt, but that wouldn’t surprise me.

I DO recall seeing a Daily Mail photo (Nov. 13, 2019) of George Conway
posing with several Trump Haters as they “celebrated” the beginning of Impeachment Hearings.
He posed in a group photo with
Kathy Griffin, Journalist E. Jean Carroll, Michael Ian Black, Soledad O’Brian and some others. The photo puts the “D” into Disgusting!

He probably would have. However, the question that Buttplug would not have thought of asking himself: “If he comes, will he give me Sharia justice?”

“I had not heard that Conway was allied with Mitt, but that wouldn’t surprise me.”

Could be. I think I heard it when Dobbs was interviewing Robert Jeffress this past week. (And it wasn’t Kasich; it was one of his minions, IIRC.)

In that same interview, I think I heard that Trump was considering trying to get prayer back in to the schools.

(Maybe I heard none of that. Maybe this should be in the thread about “There’s a good chance you hallucinated this week without ever knowing it.”) ;)

When the super delegates at the convention over ride the floor delegates we will see where the Pete supporters stand.

Lol! I also saw a small headline about Trump wanting to put prayer back in schools. I meant to return and read it. Have not yet. Maybe it’s just in the Trial Balloon stage.

Trump’s Team would need to be ready for the resistance. If Christian Prayer is officially returned to public schools, it’s just a matter of time before the Satanists demand equal time to sing praises to Baphomet. You know it’s going to come up. If the GOP can legally figure how to approve Christian Prayer and NOT devil worship, great!!
Our military still has not figured out how to do that.

“Conway: Would Buttigieg Have Invited Soleimani Into the Wine Cave?”

Wow! What an awesome new meme:

as the caption on the wine cave pic with Buttigieg and [fill-in-the-blank]each hoisting a glass of wine to the other ...

“Buttigieg will never win....he’s just a dressing candidate easy to manipulate.”

it’ll also give the dying lying leftist Democrat fake stream enemedia another excuse to whine about “lack of diversity” when Buttigieg drops out or loses ...
