“She works so hard for her boss, even though I hate his guts,” Bennett’s George reads from his list.
“He always leaves his coffee mugs around,” McKinnon’s Kellyanne says over footage of mugs — all featuring anti-Donald Trump messages on them — that she finds all over the house.
McCinnon’s Kellyanne then narrates snippets from the couple’s everyday lives as a mouthpiece for and a vocal critic of Trump, respectively, including George’s constant trolling of the president on Twitter and Trump’s responses.
You can watch the A Conway Marriage Story short, complete with a parody of the fight scene from the movie, above.
