Donald Trump To Lawrence O'Donnell: You're A Poor Man's Ed Schultz And Al Sharpton


First Posted: 02/ 9/2012 2:45 pm Updated: 02/ 9/2012 5:58 pm

Donald Trump attacked MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell on Thursday.

Trump and O'Donnell have made their mutual disdain for one another quite clear, engaging in multiple Twitter feuds and publicly denouncing each other on television and through YouTube videos.

Trump was seemingly responding to O'Donnell's scathing attack from Wednesday night. O'Donnell said that GOP candidate Mitt Romney knows that Trump is a "buffoon" and "America's biggest loser." He also said that Romney would never appoint Trump as a cabinet member if he were President, and wouldn't allow Trump to wash his car either.

Trump responded by criticizing O'Donnell's MSNBC show for having "bad ratings" and being "completely irrelevant." He also said that O'Donnell's show would be "completely dead" without him. According to Trump, O'Donnell "desperately" needs to discuss him to "get attention."

Lawrence O'Donnell will soon have another cancelled show to go along with his three cancelled TV series, "Mister Sterling", "The Kill Point" and "First Monday". @lawrence is a poor man's Ed Schultz (who replaced @Lawrence) and Al Sharpton. He was moved to 10PM due to bad ratings and taken off Friday due to being totally irrelevant. He desperately needs to keep making up false statements about me to get attention. Without clips of me, his show would be completely dead and he knows it. As I have said many times before @Lawrence is the dumbest man on television. He is only angry because I would never have wasted my time doing his completely irrelevant show.

O'Donnell responded to Trump's message and tweeted, "@realDonaldTrump Wrong again. I've had more cancelled shows that that."

As previously mentioned, Trump and O'Donnell have engaged in Twitter feuds before. Below, view a slideshow of one of their most heated Twitter feuds ever:

I really think that Donald Trump is the worst person in the United States. I have thought about this for a bit, analyzed the other contenders, finally settled on Trump. What are your thoughts? Please respond.

Lawrence O'Donnell is handsome,intelligent, and has a wicked sense of humor. Donald is a non-factor.

The shaghead is only about self aggrandizing with roving eyes for beauty pageant winners. Tells a lot about this clown.

Trump is an embarrassment to our wonderful country. Simple. He is a nobody, really just a wannabe!
02:14 PM on 02/14/2012
I could not have said it better.......He has nothing going for him other then his MOUTH!!!!!!!
08:00 PM on 02/14/2012
He is something in New York and Palm Beach.

Keep defending him Ivanka.

Does anyone really know how much money Trump has? I suspect it's not as much as he brags about. There's something really tacky about someone who brags about their money. Does he spend any on charities? He full of that phoney baloney.
02:34 PM on 02/12/2012
Last time I checked ,he had 100 million less than Oprah. That must really drive him crazy.
01:13 PM on 02/13/2012
Yeah he brags about his money and also how great a student he was at Wharton's (he needs to prove by publishing his transcripts) Humble folks do not self aggrandize themselves, they look for opportunities on how to work for the betterment of the less fortunate like the Gateses, Buffets, Rockefellers and a myriad of other good human beings. The shaghead cannot hold a candle to any one of these folks. PERIOD. True, he is a spiced up PHONEY BALONEY

Is anyone else concerned that Trump is losing some of his faculties? That is not just a blind swipe or attempt at comic insult on my part. He's exhibiting increasingly erratic behavior and decision-making: The idiocy of the birther quest, the boycotting of his own debate, the illogical sentences he utters. I'm afraid the sycophants around him aren't telling him the truth or looking out for him. His narcissism has reached clinically delusional proportions potentially. He needs to see someone who can professionally attest to his condition.

I would have thought the first two words of the headline were sufficient, 'Trump's Unhinged'.

When conceitedness, cockiness, ego and narcissism were handed out Trump got in line over and over. He is rattled by having the naked truth being revealed about his lack of net worth and just plain uselessness. If ever there was a human wasting precious oxygen it is Trump. When he goes his funeral will be held in a Port-O-John.

Okay, I admit that I generally don't watch O'Donnell. But I do make it a point to watch whenever he has something to say about Trump.

You see ShamusNYC, regular guys will not be able to stay at the Trump Hotels as they are for folks like Mitt and his minions. The TV show can surely be boycotted. NBC needs to see Donald in his eyes and SAY "you're fired' and pull the plug on the show.

That's actually an insult to Branson, to be honest.

Agreed,Branson maybe eccentric,but at least he is putting some of his money and position to wothwhile causes.
