George Conway slammed his wife, prominent White House adviser Kellyanne Conway, in public for the first time on Monday.

After Kellyanne retweeted a clip of former Vice President Joe Biden, commenting "Sleepy Joe is Creepy Joe. We need Ukraine's help to defeat THIS guy?" her husband replied, "Your boss apparently thought so."
