The recent photo of President Trump's counselor Kellyanne Conway kneeling on a couch in the White House's Oval Office made for some very ill-advised jokes at the annual Washington Press Club Foundation congressional dinner Wednesday night.

Then, Democratic Rep. Cedric Richmond (La.) chimed in: "You even mentioned Kellyanne and the picture on the sofa. But I really just want to know what was going on there, because, I won't tell anybody," Richmond said. "And you can just explain to me that — that circumstance, because she really looked kind of familiar there in that position there. But don't answer. And I don't want you to refer back to the '90s."
