George Conway accuses Trump of being a ‘sociopath’

Conservative lawyer George Conway on Wednesday lit up President Trump on Twitter, calling him a “sociopath.”

Conway, husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway and a frequent critic of the president, did not mince his words Wednesday afternoon, calling Trump a “sociopath” and a “con man.”

{mosads}”He lies because he’s a sociopath, a con man—to deceive others,” George Conway tweeted. 

“But he also lies because he’s a pathological narcissist—to deceive himself, to protect his fragile ego from narcissistic injury,” he added.

The post was part of a series of tweets that Conway made concerning the president. Several of his subsequent tweets played on his “sociopath” comment.

Trump, Conway asserted, “isn’t up to the task” of being president and “acts incompetently, and irrationally.”

If you’re president, you’re going to be criticized even if you do the job perfectly. But Trump isn’t up to the task. He acts incompetently, and irrationally.

He’s unraveling. He’s becoming completely detached from reality. You can call it decompensation or psychosis, or just plain lunacy.

Put simply, he’s only going to get worse. He’s never going to get better.

Someone on this runaway train needs to pull the emergency brake. Who’s it going to be?

In another tweet, Conway brought up Trump’s press conference with Finnish President Sauli Niinistö earlier this month, describing it as a “meltdown.”

This isn’t the first time Conway has attacked the president’s mental health.

In March, through another series of tweets, he suggested that Trump had at least two diagnosable personality disorders.

According to Federal Election Commission filings, Conway donated $5,600 to GOP primary long shot former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) on Aug. 30.

Conway is informally advising Walsh’s campaign.
