Kellyanne Conway Oval Office Photo Goes Viral

February 28, 2017 10:48 AM EST

The Internet had a field day when a photo emerged on Monday of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway kneeling on an Oval Office sofa.

Conway was seen casually sitting with her knees tucked under her on the couch while President Donald Trump met with leaders from historically black colleges and universities in the Oval Office. Her pose sparked a debate online about whether she respected the office and quickly became a meme.

It looks like Trump's waiting for Kellyanne to google, "How to talk to black people"... pic.twitter.com/QIqC94K3Eb

I will only be able to get mad at the way Kellyanne Conway sits on a couch if it turns out she's hiding of Trump's tax returns under her.
