She made the comments on CNN's State of the Union while defending Judge Brett Kavanaugh against sexual misconduct allegations
White House counsellor Kellyanne Conway revealed she herself has been a victim of sexual assault.
Discussing allegations of sexual misconduct against the President’s choice for the Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh, she told CNN: “I feel very empathetic, frankly, for victims of sexual assault and sexual harassment and rape.”
She then added tearfully: “I’m a victim of sexual assault.”
But she insisted the row over Kavanaugh was down to “raw politics”.
Then, angry that all sexual assault allegations appeared lumped together, she said: “I’ve just had it with it all being the same.”
Asked if her own experience had affected working for Mr Trump, who has faced allegations of sexual misconduct, she snapped: “Let’s not bring Trump into everything.”
