Trump Tweets: I’m Done With Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski’s ‘Gone Wild With Hate’

Here we go again.

It was only a month ago when Donald Trump decided to pick a fight with Morning Joe despite the show being one of the most fair, if not one of the most acquiescent to him. Now today, just a few minutes after the show ended, he decided to blast them again the way he does best.

I don't watch or do @Morning_Joe anymore. Small audience, low ratings! I hear Mika has gone wild with hate. Joe is Joe. They lost their way!

While it’s not entirely certain that this is what set Trump off, there’s a good chance that his Twitter slam has to do with Mika Brzezinski‘s compliments this morning to the speech Hillary Clinton gave against him. This possibility is further evidenced by the fact that he sent this tweet shortly after his hit on the show.

In Crooked Hillary's teleprompter speech yesterday, she made up things that I said or believe but have no basis in fact. Not honest!

She literally painted him into a corner, where he can't help himself except to prove her point.

It's almost as if she knows that when the right step for him would be to go silent and lay low for a while, he won't be able to help but dig himself further into a hole.

And stands for. Joe wasn't on when I was watching, maybe she got enough spunk to speak up.

Trump responded through Twitter and since then they've been more hostile to Trump.

That tweet about Joe and Mika just proves what a fragile ego Trump has, but that's what happens when you only surround yourself with yes-men.

"Wah! Mika and Joe praised my opponent! They're haters!" is basically the crux of his post.

Hillary is going to have such an easy (and fun) time getting under his very thin skin.

no way he'll give up the luvin from morning joe.

Also, he can always call in as someone else and pretend it's not him. His "outage" is just another means of pulling the news back to him and keeping his name out there......remember his campaign is broke so he needs to keep on the TV for free.
