Donald Trump wasted no time in firing back at MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” and its co host Mika Brzezinski after she said he “had a lot to drink” during a speech this weekend.
She and Nicolle Wallace speculated as to why Hillary Clinton was routinely attacked as “shrill” while Trump’s speeches aren’t scrutinized the same way.
“He belts it out like, honestly, like he’s had a lot to drink,” Brzezinski said.
“He shrieks more than she does,” Wallace agreed.
“Everyone talks about her,” Brzezinski said. “Why? Why? Because she’s a woman and we need to address how a woman has to be polite or something? That is the most impolite delivery I’ve ever seen.”
Trump immediately took to Twitter to fire back.
Tried watching low-rated @Morning_Joe this morning, unwatchable! @morningmika is off the wall, a neurotic and not very bright mess!

Some day, when things calm down, I’ll tell the real story of @JoeNBC and his very insecure long-time girlfriend, @morningmika. Two clowns!

Host Joe Scarborough retaliated swiftly.
Neurotic and not very bright?
Look in the mirror. https://t.co/FPaqGW9JWv— Joe Scarborough (@JoeNBC) August 22, 2016
Thanks for watching.

And he retweeted some others, including Ben Shapiro who wondered why someone hasn’t changed Trump’s Twitter password.

CONSIDER THIS – Hillary Clinton today announced an $80m ad buy in key states. Donald Trump is tweeting about morning cable television.

“Yes, President Trump, we could theoretically position a satellite over Joe and Mika, but our assets are focused on ISIS at the moment.”

Mika didn’t make a statement of her own but retweeted the following.
