When Chuck Todd, on Sunday’s Meet the Press, asked Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway about what Trump will do to resolve conflicts of interest with his businesses around the world, Conway replied in part:

Kellyanne Conway: “I went back and looked at what all the press clips and the conversations on shows like this were eight years ago. It was basically debating just how cool Barack Obama is. So we should at least, if we’re not going to do that about President-elect Trump, we should, at the very least, trust him to do the right thing and comply with the law here.”

Chuck Todd: “I understand every knee-jerk pushback is going to be to blame the media. That’s a crutch. I get it. And I’m used to it.”

Conway: “Not by me.”

Todd: “But it’s not the fact.”
