WASHINGTON (AP) — Photos of White House adviser Kellyanne Conway kneeling on an Oval Office couch with her shoes on have sparked an online debate about decorum in the executive mansion.
Conway is seen perched on her knees on the couch with her feet behind her in photos taken Monday while President Donald Trump met with leaders of historically black colleges and universities.
Some Twitter users were quick to highlight the photos as evidence of a lack of respect for the office from Conway and the Trump administration. Other users have countered with numerous photos of former President Barack Obama resting his feet on the office’s famed Resolute desk at various times during his eight years in office.
Conway has yet to weigh in on the criticism.

Disrespect for the Office, disrespect for the guests in the office, for tweeting while guests were present, for not standing, and for the clear disdain for she’s showing for everyone in the most formal office in the United States of American. Then again, they’re black, so I’m guessing the disrespect was intentional.
She’s not a child or the President though. She’s just being her usual skanky self.
Those photoshopped images are fantastic though.
Any American, male or female, will know immediately what mental images her position is likely to conjure up. As the Heavens are my witness I implore her to get up and stand up like a professional.
Kelleyanne…: Feh! The scurge of Chesterfields, the sorrow of sofas, the disparager of divans, your pull-out bed of nails awaits.
