NBC correspondent Andrea Mitchell rebuked Donald Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway on Tuesday after Conway criticized Hillary Clinton for “not talking to voters.”
During an MSNBC interview, Mitchell asked Conway to comment on a discrepancy in policy details on her campaign’s website compared to Clinton’s, which has far more.

“This idea that we’re going to do it on websites and Mrs. Clinton’s going to fly around raising money and not talking to voters, I think it’s a losing formula and I hope they stick with it,” Conway said.
Mitchell replied that she has “been on the road” with Clinton for more than a year and that “she has been talking to voters; I mean, that’s what the ‘listening tour’ was all about.”
“The same time, there’s a lot of criticism from Donald Trump that she was meeting with small groups,” Mitchell added. “That’s what she was doing, she was talking to voters. She was not at big rallies, so you can’t have it both ways.”
During the early months of Clinton’s campaign, she traveled around the country to meet with groups of voters for meetings. The voters, however, were reportedly selected by her campaign.
Clinton was scrutinized during that time for doing just a few national media interviews and even fewer press conferences.
