Trump Trolls Back at Rick Perry with Photo of Him ‘Begging for My Support and Money’

Donald Trump does the same thing whenever he trolls the other GOP candidates. He talks about his money and influence, and how his competitors once tried to dip their hands in the “Trump Honeypot.” Or as Trump himself said at his candidacy announcement in June, “I’m really rich!”

He did it to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) on Tuesday when, in response to Graham’s “jackass” comment on Monday, he gave out the senator’s personal phone number. Meanwhile, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry‘s campaign team began tweeting screenshots of old tweets in which Trump threw his hat in the ring for Perry’s failed 2012 bid. So of course Trump was going to respond the only way he knew how — Instagram.

On Wednesday morning, Trump posted an old photo of him and Perry in his office from the 2012 election season. In the true fashion of the Donald, he wrote: “[Rick Perry] in my office last cycle playing nice and begging for my support and money. Hypocrite!”

Never change, Donald. Not only did your intern go and dig up the old photo and help you craft yet another expert insult, but did so in a way we all expected. That is, even when “supporting” Perry in 2012, you had him stand in front of your office’s “Wall of Excellence,” which appears to be a collection of photos of yourself and magazine covers. (I can see the Playboy behind Rick’s head, good sir. I’m not blind.)

You just keep doing you, and we’ll keep watching.

Where’s Trump’s photo of the Clinton’s at his wedding to Melania?

That’s the first time I’ve seen someone make Perry look short—and just plain small.

Win or lose, I suspect Trump just solved the begging politician problem.

How heartless of the Donald

He's ruthless about politicians who begged to be bought off then turned against him. What do they expect? Heck, just about every vote they cast is because someone or some group paid for it.

Dese guys is all amateurs.

Trump is from Noo Yawk where everything is played for keeps.

It’s hilarious to watch him bounce them around.

And if they’re upset about that, maybe they should take a long look in the mirror and ask themselves if maybe they could have actually done what their voters wanted them to do, or stayed out of politics until they weren’t beggars, but rather successful men with a track record, and if maybe...just maybe...Trump has identified REAL ISSUES that they are afraid to confront...and he’s not.

When I see/hear hear Rick Perry speak, I get visions of a combo of Eddie Haskel and Sid from “Tom Sawyer”. Creeps me out.

I’m realy surprised Donald wastes any time on Perry anymore. Since Trump entered the race, Perry’s support has dried up to 0%.

This story made me think of the following movie quotation:

Bene, Don. I need a man who has powerful friends. I need a million dollars in cash. I need, Don, all of those politicians that you carry around in your pocket, like so many nickels and dimes.
