(CNN) Let's pause for a moment and consider that President Donald Trump's chief of staff Mick Mulvaney had to say on national TV that his boss is "not a white supremacist" and one of Trump's senior advisers, Kellyanne Conway, had to push back against her own husband's questioning of Trump's mental state.

Over the weekend, as Trump ranted on Twitter, George Conway, who is a prominent conservative lawyer, posted the psychiatric definition of narcissistic personality disorder and asked all Americans to think about Trump's "mental condition and psychological state."

Naturally, the press wanted to hear Kellyanne Conway's view. "No, I don't share those concerns," she said as she went to work at the White House on Monday. She added that she had been busy with her children and may not have been aware of all the President's recent tweets.

The twin spectacles, headlined by Mulvaney and Conway, come after several off-key days for a president whose behavior is so troll-like that Americans have come to expect him to act more like an out-of-control Reddit commenter than a chief executive of the United States. Altogether, these events reinforce the idea that Trump is wholly unsuited for the Oval Office.

Part of the reason that Mulvaney and Conway had to defend the President is because rather than focusing on Friday's tragedy, when a white supremacist allegedly killed 50 people in two New Zealand mosques, Trump spent the weekend tweeting his grievances about John McCain, Fox News' suspension of Jeanine Pirro and GM's CEO Mary Barra.
