The Donald Trump v. Michelle Malkin Twitter War

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”

of the Republican pie. While fun to watch, it is not very meaningful, except to their small groups of devotees.

Neither has clout, they know it, and are afraid of the other stealing what tiny thunder they have.

Anyone for mud wrestling?

thank you!

They're both right. What's a bystander to do who does not have a dog in this fight? Wish them a twitter duel to the metaphoical death?!

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."

They so want to be sophisticated but their daddy is an egotistical nut-bag. Yet they have to put up with him because he still has the money.
