(Jenny Starrs/The Washington Post)This post has been updated with a newly discovered third instance of Conway citing the “Bowling Green attack” — with TMZ. Kellyanne Conway thinks she took too much flak for citing a nonexistent “Bowling Green massacre” to justify President Trump's travel ban. She said she simply meant to say “Bowling Green terrorists,” and she later said, “I misspoke one word.”Except now she doesn't appear to have misspoken at all; she seems to have believed that the Bowling Green massacre was a real thing. But Trump's travel ban is aimed at preventing domestic terrorism, of which Bowling Green isn't an example. Kellyanne Conway, the counselor to President Trump, defended his travel ban to seven Muslim-majority countries by referring to a "Bowling Green massacre" that never actually happened.
