Trump gets personal in 'Morning Joe' attacks

Donald Trump

DONALD TRUMP on Monday escalated his feud with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” by attacking co-host Mika Brzezinski’s intelligence.

"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 implied a romantic relationship between Brzezinski and fellow co-host Joe Scarborough in tweets marking the latest shots fired in the GOP White House nominee's war on the media.

The comments came the same morning Scarborough and Brzezinski mocked a recent speech from Trump in Fredericksburg, Va., which they found rambling.

"He belted like, honestly ... like he's had a lot to drink," Brzezinski said.

Scarborough responded to Trump's attacks on Twitter, advising him to focus on the general election: @HillaryClinton is targeting key swing states today while Trump starts his day obsessed with cable news hosts while channeling Gawker. SAD!

Trump has repeatedly criticized “Morning Joe” for its coverage of his presidential campaign. Earlier this month, he called Scarborough “sad and irrelevant,” citing the show's “low ratings” as evidence.

And Scarborough earlier this month urged Republicans to remove Trump as their party’s presidential nominee

Trump tends to listen to women more than men.

Who doesn't? Women don't stop until they get their way.

The only “crap” is their show. I watched a few of late and you’s think they were on Hillary’s Foundation payroll. No one would be calling them out on this crap, so go for it Donald!

Maybe. But no one cares about the backstory even if they could find out because Joe and Mika aren’t running for president. All the American people are thinking is that this man could get us in serious trouble if he continues to behave this way on the international stage.

We finally have a candidate who believes in PUNCHING THE BAD GUYS IN THE MOUTH and too many cucks are “worried” for all the wrong reasons.

[Trump needs to ignore the media.]

That’s like saying Patton should have paid no attention to the Germans.

The media IS the enemy.

Agree. It’s never a disadvantage to push back on Left Wing media knotheads such as “Deliverance Banjo Boy” Scarborough or Zika Brrrshinski.

I see all the fairies, pearl clutchers and fainting couch-lovers are back in force today. Maybe because Mark Jessup has taken a break?!

Trump is a wuss, I want this guy Duterte from the Philippines.

“Duterte characterized the two U.N. human rights experts who called for an end to the extralegal killings last week as “very stupid,” and told the U.N. to stop “worrying about the bones of criminals piling up” and instead focus on fulfilling its mandate of preventing conflict and alleviating suffering around the world.

“I do not want to insult you. But maybe we’ll just have to decide to separate from the United Nations,” he said.

As for the repercussions of such a move, Duterte promised he doesn’t “give a shit.”

A lotta these folks need to take a break for a day or two.
Go mow the yard, catch up on that 'honey do' list, go to a ball game, anything to just chill the hell out a bit.

I'll stick with the man who's gotten himself to this point, the team behind him, and the 'monster vote' waiting in the wings to shock the world.
