The two have engaged in a bitter fight over Twitter and in presidential interviews with reporters all week.

“THINK about the fact that we don’t just have a mentally unstable president—but a president who thinks he needs to be re-elected to avoid being indicted. (At least in that one respect his thinking is clear.),” Conway tweeted.

The president is currently under investigation on an array of fronts, though it is far from clear he'll be indicted for anything.

The Department of Justice's internal guidance is that a sitting president cannot be indicted, and Conway's tweet appears to be an attempt to jab at Trump on that note.

Trump earlier this week described Conway as a “husband from hell” who is jealous of his wife's success.

George Conway, often referred to as Mr. Kellyanne Conway by those who know him, is VERY jealous of his wife’s success & angry that I, with her help, didn’t give him the job he so desperately wanted. I barely know him but just take a look, a stone cold LOSER & husband from hell! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 20, 2019

Conway responded to that insult with a tweet that said, "You. Are. Nuts."

Kellyanne Conway has defended the president during the exchanges, saying he is not forcing her to choose sides.

"He’s protective of me and that’s what people really should take from this," she said Thursday. "I’m not being asked to choose between my marriage and my job. The president has never made me feel that way."

"It’s unusual for George, who people know as a very private person, who really hasn’t weighed in on many different matters over the years," she added.
