Conway Blames De Blasio For NYC Coronavirus Spread

The New York Post reports:

White House adviser Kellyanne Conway is blaming New York Mayor Bill de Blasio for making his city the epicenter of coronavirus spread in the US. “I’m not playing politics,” the counselor to President Trump told reporters Thursday, “but you have a mayor saying, ‘Look at me, I’m on the subway, go out on the town.’”

“He told people through a tweet on March 2, ‘Go live your lives and go out on the town,’ and then recommended what show everybody go see,” Conway said. “So it’s very unfortunate that we now have the spread in the whole New York metro area, which as you all know includes many parts of New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania.”

.@KellyannePolls called out @NYCMayor for “riding the subway … and telling people to go out on the town,” before being cut off by @HARRISFAULKNER.

“Kellyanne, I’m going to stop you on the politics.”https://t.co/KKoJ6iTcSm

Kellyanne Conway tried to squeeze in a political attack on NYC mayor Bill de Blasio while talking about ventilators on Fox News. It was so blatant that Fox’s Harris Faulkner stopped her: “Kellyanne, I’m going to stop you on the politics.” pic.twitter.com/gJAyBhbXGh
