Kellyanne Conway Casually Sits, and Etiquette Arbiters Take a Stand -
During President Trump’s meeting with dozens of leaders of historically black universities on
Monday, Kellyanne Conway, the White House counselor, made herself at home in the Oval Office.
To Pamela Eyring, president of the Protocol School of Washington, whose programs
focus on etiquette, it just looked a lot like a “rookie protocol mistake.”
Ms. Eyring said the photos of Ms. Conway probably negated whatever message of unity Mr. Trump was trying to project.
“Let the media take the shot instead of you trying to stand on furniture.”
He then shared nine photos of former President Barack Obama with his feet propped up on desks and chairs in the White House.
