Grab the popcorn, News Hounds, there's a new Fox News civil war going on, this time in the Twittersphere. In one corner, we have Fox News contributor and hatriot, Mean Girl Michelle Malkin and in the other corner, Fox News fave, Birther Boy Donald Trump. This fight has all the class you could want. Birther Boy called Malkin a "dummy" and the hatriot retaliated by calling him a "smear merchant."
From Mediaite:
Malkin’s conservative Twitter aggregator site Twitchy took to calling the real estate mogul and recent CPAC speaker Trump a “conservafraud.”
Shortly thereafter, Malkin took to Twitter — as she is wont to do — to ask Trump why he once called her a “dummy” and “smeared” her “past.”
...After a good 12-hour delay, Trump finally responded. And he did so in typically brash style, telling the conservative commentator that she is a “dummy” and was “born stupid”
Couldn't happen to a nicer pair! In the meanwhile, here's a couple of Twitter screen grabs from the Malkin and Trump twitter feeds to enjoy with your popcorn:
But then, you see the rare glimpse of them at their most vulnerable, or when they enjoy a humane pleasure, and you suddenly get this feeling that how they act/cling to symbols is a coping device?
(Bring up what you’re thinking- I dare ya!)
That’s how I’ve come to see Malkin. I still have very little pity for her, but she strikes me as someone who had an absolute run of it before the far right offered her the breaks she wasn’t getting in exchange for being a token. She’s always struck me as that she’s still getting even with the world, and is at the point where “too far” doesn’t exist if she hates you.
Compared to the other women of Fox News that have had notoriously charmed lives (Carlson, Kelly, Tantaros), and are basically just bitchy-ass GOP trophy wives with TV gigs… Yeah.
This sure has been a fun week.
However, as much as her bad musicianship makes me cringe… I almost prefer that to her excessive flaming, and seeing who she can get into a new fight with. And who knows? It might calm her down some…
This fight has all the class you could want.
“And less.”
