Donald Trump goes ballistic after 'total fool' journalist uses lewd insult against him on Fox News

OK, get the popcorn. This is too funny and delicious.

====

Real-estate magnate Donald Trump fired off multiple furious tweets Wednesday night after a crude remark was used against him on Fox News.

Rich Lowry, the editor of the conservative magazine National Review, said the Republican presidential front-runner was attacking rival Carly Fiorina because she emasculated him at last week's presidential debate.

"Part of what's going on here is that last debate. Let's be honest: Carly cut his balls off with the precision of a surgeon, and he knows it," Lowry said during a Fox News interview, according to video posted by Mediaite.

Host Megyn Kelly was shocked.

"What did you just say?!" Kelly said. "You can't say that."

But Trump, who has fiercely feuded with both Fox News and Kelly, wasn't satisfied with her admonishment.

He trashed Lowry on Twitter as "incompetent" and "clueless," demanded an apology, and suggested that the Federal Communications Commission should fine Lowry as a result.

it and then agree with me that our entire system is completely broken.

Trump should not have $5 let alone $5 billion, the LAST guy you want to have money is him or those like him.

The LAST person who should have a microphone is ANYBODY on fox.

We are so broken.

Can you imagine this guy in charge of a government? Nixon's enemies list isn't even in it (yes, it was a rhetorical question).

Putin calls him a jerk in the middle of his "talks"? The opposition party in Britain calls him lame? Merkel shakes her head at something he said about Greece, or Syrian refugees?

Since about half the country hates most things any President does, no matter who or what, imagine him in the middle of some firestorm over just about any policy positions he takes.

To use the cliché, he can dish it out but he sure can't take it.
