George Conway, the recently divorced ex-husband of former Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway, has launched a new political action committee aimed at preventing Donald Trump from returning to the White House in 2024.

The Anti-Psychopath PAC, as it's called, will work to "highlight the existential threat Donald Trump poses to democracy and remind voters of the former president's mental unfitness for office."

[...]

"The failure to treat Trump's behavior as pathological has led the media and the country, perversely, to treat it as normal," Conway said in an interview explaining the rationale behind the Anti-Psychopath PAC. "And that's a big reason why we're seeing the double standard being applied to the candidates today."

By Conway's assessment, Trump's concerning mental state and frequent bouts of erratic behavior have been brushed aside and normalized by the press and public. He hopes the new PAC can shift the narrative by rigorously scrutinizing Trump's psychology and fitness for office to the same degree as President Biden's.
