'Worst of the human spirit': George Conway breaks down searing ad featuring Trump’s accusers

Earlier this week, conservative attorney George Conway's "Anti-Psychopath PAC" released new 60-second campaign ads featuring the testimonies of women who accused former President Donald Trump of sexual assault and misconduct.

In one of the ads, People magazine journalist Natasha Stoynoff recalled her encounter with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in 2005, where he allegedly took her into a side room in the house while his wife, Melania, was changing and suddenly started aggressively kissing and groping her while she tried to push him away. The PAC also released an ad of former stockbroker Jessica Leeds describing how Trump started groping her and attempting to put his hand up her skirt without her consent on a flight in 1979.

“Donald Trump views women as for his entertainment,” Leeds said. “He is a serial predator. He has said it point blank, and he’s done it, and he will continue to do it.”

According to the Hill, Conway is running both ads in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, and is targeting women watching the Lifetime and Hallmark channels in his $250,000 ad buy. He told MSNBC host Joy Ann Reid on Friday that he felt the need to make sure both Stoynoff and Leeds' stories were heard by women, saying Trump represented the "worst of the human spirit."

"He is a psychopath, and he's a narcissistic sociopath or psychopath, and malignant narcissist. He really is. He represents sort of the worst of the human spirit," Conway said. "He's mentally ill. He suffers from narcissistic personality disorder and suffers from antisocial personality disorder, he checks all the boxes. And among those boxes are really some very, very negative characteristics that you can find in a small number of human beings, which is a complete lack of empathy, a complete inability to follow rules and laws and to respect the boundaries and dignity of other human beings."

"There's so many of these characteristics that illustrate themselves in his behavior toward women. It explains his misogyny," he continued.

Both women initially told their stories in the lead-up to the 2016 election, along with several others who came forward after the emergence of the 2005 Access Hollywood tape. In that audio, Trump is heard describing to host Billy Bush how he enjoyed kissing and groping women without their consent. Conway argued that the former president has exhibited predatory behavior for years, and that his PAC is making sure to remind voters of that history before voters head to the polls in November.

"This is how he actually thinks. He believes this. And the notion that he did this with his wife, to Natasha, with his wife in the same building, the notion that he did what he did to e. jean carroll, as a jury found, in a department store in midtown manhattan, he's a very, very sick and dangerous man. And that's part of the reason why we're doing this, is to really bring that home to people by showing them the victims."

Conway — who used to be married to top Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway — launched the Anti-Psychopath PAC in July with an initial infusion of $343,434.34 of his own money. He said the amount was meant to symbolize the ex-president's 34 felony convictions in New York earlier this year.
