George Conway is now subtweeting Trump with clinical definitions of personality disorders
White House counselor Kellyanne Conway's husband is doubling down on his belief that President Trump's mental state is cause for concern.
On Monday, George Conway tweeted — without comment — pages from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders defining narcissistic personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder, clearly suggesting both apply to Trump's recent behavior.
Conway's tweets seemed to be in response to the president's unusually active weekend on Twitter, during which he attacked late Senator John McCain several times and suggested Saturday Night Live be investigated because it's too hard on him. Conway on Monday responded to a tweet about Trump's recent Twitter behavior by saying that "all Americans should be thinking seriously now about Trump's mental condition and psychological state, including ... the Vice President and Cabinet."

Last week, Conway had said that "a serious inquiry needs to be made about this man's condition of mind," and on Sunday, he concluded that the president's "condition is getting worse." Kellyanne Conway told reporters on Monday, per CNN's Manu Raju, that she does not "share" these concerns about her boss.
