Most of America is well aware that there is something mentally wrong with Donald Trump — perhaps even multiple things. Various mental health professionals have pointed out the president’s declining mental state and have even made predictions about what psychiatric diagnosis he might have, but it’s super awkward when it’s coming from the spouse of one of Trump’s own administration members!
Kellyanne Conway’s husband George Conway has made things extremely awkward for her as she continues to work in the Trump administration. He’s one of Trump’s biggest online critics, and now he’s decided to show proof of Trump’s mental health woes — by tweeting out actual diagnostic pages of the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders)!
While Conway is far from a mental health professional, it’s hard to ignore that all of these mental disorders fit the president pretty well. In several tweets, Conway pointed out that Trump’s mental “condition is getting worse” and that he’s reached “a new level of insane.”
His condition is getting worse.

This continued into this morning when Conway responded to CNN’s Ana Navarro, who said Trump’s recent unhinged Twitter activity was due to the Mueller investigation. Conway argued it was something more:
Don’t assume that the things he says and does are part of a rational plan or strategy, because they seldom are. Consider them as a product of his pathologies, and they make perfect sense.”

This was followed by multiple screenshots of criteria for mental disorders, such as Narcissistic Personality Disorder, which includes telltale signs such as “exaggerates achievements and talents,” “requires excessive admiration” and “lacks empathy.”

Conway also believes Trump fits Antisocial Personality Disorder, which has criteria such as failure to “respect lawful behaviors,” “deceitfulness,” “impulsivity or failure to plan ahead,” and “consistent irresponsibility.”

Conway topped it all off with a response to Bill Kristol, who urged GOPers to look at Trump’s tweets and “think seriously about his mental condition.” Conway responded:
Agree with this, but would add that *all* Americans should be thinking seriously *now* about Trump’s mental condition and psychological state, including and especially the media, Congress—and the Vice President and Cabinet.”

Trump needs a psychiatric evaluation more than ever. While no one can formally diagnosis Trump without proper training, it doesn’t take a licensed professional to see that something is seriously wrong.
