Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump took to Twitter Monday to reignite his feud with the hosts of MSNBC’s "Morning Joe."

Trump called the show “unwatchable” and called co-host Mika Brzezinski a “neurotic and not very bright mess.” Trump also insinuated that Brzezinski and co-host Joe Scarborough have a romantic relationship. The New York Post recently reported a similar claim.
Tried watching low-rated @Morning_Joe this morning, unwatchable! @morningmika is off the wall, a neurotic and not very bright mess!

Some day, when things calm down, I'll tell the real story of @JoeNBC and his very insecure long-time girlfriend, @morningmika. Two clowns!

Scarborough responded to Trump’s tweets.
Neurotic and not very bright?

Trump's new campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, said Sunday during an interview on ABC's "This Week" that Trump "doesn't hurl personal insults."

Trump enjoyed a much friendlier relationship with the "Morning Joe" co-hosts during the primary season.
