Real-estate mogul Donald Trump is now going after conservative talk-show host Glenn Beck.

In recent weeks, Beck has repeatedly been critical of Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner.

Most recently, Beck was quoted in a New York Times article on Wednesday dismissing Trump as a "schoolyard bully" who is not in touch with tea-party conservatives.

The Times article was titled: "Donald Trump’s Act Seems to Be Wearing Out Its Welcome."

Trump, no stranger to Twitter insults, lashed out at Beck on Thursday.

Trump also had harsh words for Erick Erickson, the conservative commentator who is the editor of the website RedState. Erickson, who announced Monday that he was leaving the site at the end of the year

Erick fired?

The GOPeePees are trickling down the urinal.

They see the handwriting on the wall: they failed to carry out the will of their uniparty masters while their nemesis Trump rockets skyward.

All Trump had to say is “Erick, you’re fired!” And everyone would have laughed.

Beck is pathologically self-serving. I wish Trump would ignore him and thereby not promote him.

I stopped reading when they claimed Beck was a conservative. They can’t even get that right.

Beck’s greatest contribution to “conservative talk radio” is Moron Trivia. /s

Beck claims to be a Christian and gets snarky and sarcastic when challenged. He hates Trump; but Christians don’t hate. His amnesty and illegal immigration stance is right out of the the Liberal playbook.

The silliness, favoring amnesty and illegal immigration and the constant bashing of Trump (and now Sarah Palin) tells me he’s turned to the dark side. Give it a year or two and he’ll be a regular on MSNBC.

His replacement is no different than Eric. He might be even worse.

The Moron Trivia thing amplifies how hypocritical Beck really is. I could see a Howard Stern type pulling it off but for a holier than thou type and his band of juvenile lackeys it’s off putting. Just seams odd to ask for prayers for me and my family right before I go interrupt someone’s workday to make fun of them.

Beck was at one time a funny, conservative, but today is as loony as any lefty roaming the planet.

His reason is long gone, and the only thing he has left, is making noise and money and laughing at his own inside stupid jokes.

More than just making fun of people, he also LIES to them and thinks it’s funny to do so.

How long does Beck say he’s been in recovery?

I don’t know anyone personally who pays any attention to Beck. I think that Beck’s continuous outbursts about Trump is just another one of his attention getting ploys. Pay no attention to him, and he will go away.

“The Moron Trivia thing amplifies how hypocritical Beck really is.”

Exactly, I was a big fan of Beck once upon a time, but Moron Trivia was the start of my disgust with Beck. He humiliates people, how would he like someone calling his kids and making fools of them.
Now I can’t stand Beck, with his sidekicks that agree with him on everything. He is indeed a nutjob.

I agree with all the statements about Moron Trivia and how much it reflects Beck’s “values.”

I’ve said before (and I’ll say it again), Beck has turned in to Jimmy Swaggart with all the crying, preaching, and begging for money. I’m surprised he hasn’t started passing the plate around to his TV studio audience.
