Trump threatens to 'tell the real story' about Morning Joe 'clowns'

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/08/trump-blasts-morning-joe-227258#ixzz4I3qZ8WOT

He's "back!" (Let's be real, he was never gone.) Someone needs to make sure Andrea Mitchell is ok.

Donald Trump laced into the hosts of MSNBC's morning show anew on Monday, accusing one of co-hosts of being "neurotic" and a "mess" and both of them as being "two clowns."

"Tried watching low-rated @Morning_Joe this morning, unwatchable! @morningmika is off the wall, a neurotic and not very bright mess!" Trump tweeted Monday, referring specifically to Mika Brzezinski, in response to the first hour and 20 minutes of MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

Minutes after his initial tweet, Trump offered another personal broadside.

"Some day, when things calm down, I'll tell the real story of @JoeNBC and his very insecure long-time girlfriend, @morningmika. Two clowns!" Trump tweeted, a day after campaign manager Kellyanne Conway insisted that he "doesn't hurl personal insults."

He used to love Joe and Mika - and they turned on him. So, dem operatives need to find as many of those who have turned on him to get on twitter.

15. Good idea for an ad!

Hillary should do an ad with the "presidential" angle, if she hasn't already. I saw a good one during the Olympics, the Letterman one about Trump's employing people in other countries but not the US for example.

Play clips of him saying stupid stuff, tweets, insults, childish behavior etc alternating with "Presidential?"

Another idea, as I was about to add "pivot" to the above list, show clips of his waffles alternating with "Pivot or About Face?" or some other description of his ramblings.

8. Trump had a crush on Mika.

And clearly she has spurned his affections.

9. People mag just picked up on this. Has Joe's tweets back

http://www.people.com/article/donald-trump-threatens-morning-joe-hosts-joe-scarborough-mika-brzezinski?xid=socialflow_twitter_peoplemag
Scarborough quickly responded with his own set of tweets aimed at Trump, 70.

"Neurotic and not very bright? Look in the mirror," one read.

Joe Scarborough ✔ @JoeNBC
Neurotic and not very bright?
Look in the mirror. https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/767683204039974912 …

A second tweet mocked the real estate mogul's viewership: "Thanks for watching. Morning Joe is enjoying it's best ratings ever thanks to obsessed fans like you. GLAD."

Upset at Joe and MIka. But you said the show is low ratings so why do you watch it. Then threaten them cause they talk about you. Bully bully bully. Can't you see him doing the same to congress,senators, governors, mayors, world leaders etc?
