Last week was heralded as a new beginning for Donald Trump, moving past insults and personal attacks to a more serious, policy focused tone. Monday morning the old Trump was back, hurling insults via Twitter toward Morning Joe hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough.
Dismissing the show as “unwatchable,” Trump called Brzezinski “a neurotic and not very bright mess.”
Tried watching low-rated @Morning_Joe this morning, unwatchable! @morningmika is off the wall, a neurotic and not very bright mess!

He them promised to “tell the real story” of Brzezinski and Scarborough, referring to Brzezinski as Scarborough’s “very insecure long-time girlfriend.”
Some day, when things calm down, I’ll tell the real story of @JoeNBC and his very insecure long-time girlfriend, @morningmika. Two clowns!
