Donald Trump Faces Immediate Backlash After Attacking Famous Media Mogul: 'REALLY???
April 06, 2015
Billionaire real-estate tycoon Donald Trump turned to Twitter Monday night to blast Arianna Huffington.
Trump initially slammed The Huffington Post, contending the website is more "dishonest" than Rolling Stone.
He then made things personal.
"How much money is the extremely unattractive (both inside and out) Arianna Huffington paying her poor ex-hubby for the use of his name?" Trump asked on Twitter.
The backlash was immediate.
Others went after Trump's own looks.
Some attacked him on financial grounds.
And finally, others cited Trump's aggressive personality as a reason not to vote for him for president.
