On Saturday, in a fiery exchange during impeachment proceedings, GOP Congresswoman Elise Stefanik repeatedly interrupted Senator Adam Schiff, when she wasn’t recognized to speak.
Afterward, she finally followed procedure and stopped trying to bully her way around the rules of the proceedings, but her actions did NOT go unnoticed by prominent Republican attorney, George Conway, who took to Twitter and shredded Stefanik, calling her “lying trash” and then donating $2800 to Tedra Cobb, Stefanik’s Democratic challenger.
.@EliseStefanik is lying trash. Please give to her opponent, @TedraCobb. https://t.co/NDstzv2Qgr

I just gave the legal maximum. If you believe in truth in politics and in the rule of law, you should give what you can as well. https://t.co/KztHswmYoT pic.twitter.com/ukfNr66ipP

Ms. Cobb then announced that her donations had soared today, reaching over $500k, $200k more than she had raised earlier on Saturday.
If anyone has ever doubted the serious power of #grassroots, the last 24 hours should be all the proof you need.
With your help, we are sending a message: it’s time to send representatives to Washington who will put their constituents and country over party. #NY21 pic.twitter.com/G22BgrYapS

But that didn’t stop Stefanik from scrambling to convince her base that her side was “WINNING,” even though it was clearly proven otherwise that she was not, in fact, “winning…”
The thirsty Congresswoman took to twitter with this ridiculous post:
It’s VERY Clear. Far-left Dems & Never Trumpers CANNOT handle the Truth. That’s why they are launching disgusting smears & doctoring photos of me in a sick attempt to intimidate me. Thx for proving that our side is WINNING. Donate NOW to help me fight backhttps://t.co/MlLBNmCor4

As you might expect, the Twitterverse was quick to correct her! Check out some of these responses:
We really hope Stefanik reads her Twitter comments.
