Kellyanne Conway says she meant 'no disrespect' with question about reporter's ethnicity
 Joe Concha 

"This was meant with no disrespect.
We are all from somewhere else "originally". I asked the question to answer the question and volunteered my own ethnicity: Italian and Irish.
Like many, I am proud of my ethnicity, love the USA & grateful to God to be an American

"White House counselor Kellyanne Conway said she meant "no disrespect" when she questioned a reporter about his ethnicity on Tuesday while defending President Trump amid blowback to his remarks going after a handful of progressive House Democrats.
"This was meant with no disrespect," Conway wrote to her 2.8 million Twitter followers, referring to her exchange with the reporter during a press gaggle earlier in the day at the White House.
During the press gaggle Tuesday morning in the White House driveway, Conway engaged in a back-and-forth about ethnicity with Breakfast Media's Andrew Feinberg.
"If the president was not telling these four congresswomen to return to their supposed countries of origin, to which countries was he referring?" Feinberg asked.
"What's your ethnicity?" Conway responded.
"Why is that relevant?" Feinberg replied. . .
"My own ethnicity is not relevant to the question I'm asking you," Feinberg responded.
"No, no. It is," Conway replied. "Because you're asking about - he said 'originally.' He said 'originally from.' And you know everything he has said since and to have a full conversation."

On Tuesday, Trump declared he didn't have "a racist bone" in his body in response to growing criticism.
"Those Tweets were NOT Racist. I don't have a Racist bone in my body!" Trump tweeted.
