Kellyanne Conway fired back at CNN’s Dana Bash during a Sunday appearance on “State of the Union,” arguing that there was no evidence that President Donald Trump had done anything wrong.

WATCH:

Bash pressed Conway about the July 25 phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, asking her repeatedly whether she felt the call was appropriate. (RELATED: ‘Off The Record Means Off The Freaking Record’: Meghan McCain Blasts Reporter Over Kellyanne Conway Call)

“That is his political rival and at its core regardless when that happened he’s asking — he is asking another leader to look into an American politician. That is okay with you?” Bash asked.

“The vice president,” Conway interjected.

“That is okay with you?” Bash asked again.

“What is fine with me is the day after Bob Mueller’s testimony which was as big of a bomb as the Mueller report despite the fact that for two plus years everyone in this town talked about nothing but, we spent $35 million in taxpayer — and the next day the president of the United States is saying to the president of Ukraine and I heard about Crowdstrike 2016 and people are talking about this prosecutor. Had nothing to do — he doesn’t mention 2020,” Conway explained.

“But it — the word ‘Biden’ —” Bash objected.

“It is not about 2020,” Conway shot back.

“Even if Joe Biden were not running for president and still a private citizen going off into the sunset, would it be okay for the — the president of the United States, yes or no, to ask another foreign leader to investigate an American citizen.”

Conway pointed out that the president had asked Zelensky to look into the broader issue of corruption, mentioning Biden and Crowdstrike as possible examples of that corruption.

“That is not — that sounds like a very oversimplified presentation of what is happening here,” she said. “What is happening here is the president of the United States said, people are talking about this prosecutor and, excuse me, in this investigation. And we have Joe Biden bragging on tape in January of 2018 and ‘I said I would be on ground in 90 more minutes and if you don’t believe me call Barack.'”

Bash pushed back, saying, “For the record, there is no evidence that Joe or Hunter Biden did anything wrong.”

Conway fired right back: “There is no evidence that Donald Trump did anything wrong.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
