http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/07/06/1399563/-Donald-Trump-gets-into-Twitter-war-with-Modern-Family-writer-is-obliteratedBecause nothing says "presidential material" like engaging a television show writer in an online flame war, the Donald got a little bent out of shape the other day when Modern Family writer Danny Zuker made fun of how much of a hypocrite the Donald Trump is:
<...>
HAHAHAHAHA. Oh well, he got you, Donald. But, hey, he's a comedy television writer who writes for a wildly successful and award winning comedy television show about the modern American extended familywith gay people and people of color all held together by humanity.
You should probably stop, Mr. Trump. This guy writes for a living and he writes in short joke forms.
Teehee.

(999 posts)Never ever get in an argument with a comedian or a writer. They will cut you so quickly and you will never know it. That exchange was so one sided but you know that Donald Trump will do his best to minimize it when he is asked about it.

(17,599 posts)trump is increasingly pathetic.
I don't think he'll be able to show his repulsive face at the next correspondent's dinner.
I think he is going to be a spontaneous laughing stock.

(959 posts)Trump is incapable of reply. He name calls, and when that doesn't work, he invokes the talking points. When that doesn't work, he name calls, then the talking points. Can you imagine having to live with this person? No amount of money would be worth his bloviating and bile. Melania is earning her money!
