George Conway, who calls himself a “recovering lawyer” and is also the ex-husband of former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, is running as a Democrat for Congress, media reported Monday.

He would seek outgoing Rep. Jerry Nadler’s House seat in New York.

Conway has earned major anti-Trump cred after being offered a spot in his first administration.

He co-founded the Lincoln Project, a political action committee opposing Trump.

Last week, after Trump’s unhinged comments about Rob Reiner following the director’s death, Conway wrote: “I know I’ve been banging this drum for over seven years, but @realDonaldTrump is a truly sick man who should be in a mental or penal institution and certainly not in the White House.”

George Conway would face John F. Kennedy's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, in a Democratic primary, according to filings.

Reports circulated in March 2023 that the Trump critic and Kellyanne Conway, Trump’s 2016 campaign manager who served as an adviser in his first White House, were settling their divorce after their ideological differences widened.

Politico reported that Conway had tested the campaign waters by hiring a Democratic pollster to weigh whether a run would be viable.

Nadler, now in his 17th term, announced in September that he would not seek reelection to his Manhattan district.

The most prominent name among Conway’s likely opponents in a Democratic primary would be Jack Schlossberg, grandson of John F. Kennedy.
