Kellyanne Conway's husband takes shot at Trump's tweets

— -- George Conway, husband of presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway, scolded President Donald Trump in a tweet this morning following Trump's series of Twitter messages blasting the legal dispute over his travel ban.

George Conway recently withdrew himself from consideration for the head of the Justice Department's civil division, citing family concerns.

The Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) -- which Conway appears to be referring to -- litigates matters for the U.S. government before the Supreme Court.

The Justice Department has appealed to the Supreme Court after lower courts blocked the president's revised executive order that would restrict travel from six majority-Muslim countries.

In a tweet this morning, which George Conway commented on, Trump wrote: "The Justice Dept. should have stayed with the original Travel Ban, not the watered down, politically correct version they submitted to S.C."

George Conway later posted an analysis by the Washington Post that indicated that Trump's tweets on the travel ban could hurt the government's case in court.

He later issued a statement on twitter, reiterating his support for the president but still criticizing his tweeting.

Conway's tweets followed Kellyanne's comments on NBC's "The Today Show" implying that Trump's tweet should not be taken so seriously.

There is "an obsession with covering everything Trump says on Twitter and very little of what he does as president," Kellyanne Conway said, arguing that Twitter is not the president's preferred method of communicating.
