(CNN) On Wednesday morning, the leader of the free world tweeted this:

"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!"

Then, just before he left to give a speech in Ohio on Wednesday afternoon, Trump called George Conway a "wack job" and said Conway was "doing a tremendous disservice to a wonderful wife."

It was the latest and most awkward chapter in the can't-take-your-eyes-off-it-kind-of-like-a-slow-motion-car-crash story of Donald Trump, White House senior counselor Kellyanne Conway and her husband George Conway. And it seemed likely to bring the situation to a painful head -- particularly after George Conway responded to Trump's latest tweet with this succinct response : "You. Are. Nuts."

Conway -- George, that is -- has emerged as one of Trump's most high-profile critics largely via Twitter, which, given the President's dependence on the social media platform, is delicious. Following Trump's 50-plus tweets (and retweets) weekend, George Conway tweeted out the definitions of narcissistic personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Conway followed those images up with this: "His condition is getting worse."
