Lynn Jenkins criticizes Trump over 'Morning Joe' tweets

U.S. President Donald Trump made comments on Twitter Thursday morning about a TV host's appearance days after commenting to the Irish vice president about a reporter's 'nice smile.'
President Trump's Tweets Attacking MSNBC Host Denounced By Lawmakers

She said that if any business executive behaved the way Trump does, "there would be concern that perhaps the person who runs the company is out of his mind".

"Let's all remember the lessons from the Congressional shooting just a couple weeks ago". Quote: "The motto of we longtime Trump supporters is: NO TREATS FOR DOING NOTHING!"

In recent days Trump has escalated his attacks on U.S. media outlets - which he accuses of peddling "fake news" about him - singling out CNN over the retraction of a story about his administration's supposed links with Russian Federation but also assailing rival cable networks, the New York Times and the Washington Post.

In a statement released by Trump's director of communications, Trump attempted no explanation for her husband's freaky and offensive behavior: "As the First Lady has stated publicly in the past when her husband gets attacked, he will punch back 10 times harder". This White House ― because Donald Trump wants his son-in-law to be the de facto secretary of state and anybody going in there knows that he wants Jared to be the de facto secretary of state, so they have cut Rex Tillerson off at the knees every single day.

A Republican senator is alluding to the recent shooting that wounded a congressman in response to the president's crude tweets about a cable television host. Trump says it is his way of reaching millions of followers with comments unfiltered by the national news media he reviles.

Florida Sen. James Lankford, who recently chaired a hearing on safety with Capitol Police following the attack on Scalise, echoed a similar sentiment in a statement released via Twitter.

The gunman died after an exchange of shots with police; he had railed against Trump and Republicans.

The Wisconsin Republican was responding to a series of Trump tweets Thursday morning.

She acknowledged that "Morning Joe" has often gone after the president, and she herself is certainly no fan of the MSNBC program. He also described her as "low I.Q. Crazy Mika". He also claimed to have seen Brzezinski "bleeding badly from a face-lift". "This is a president who fights fire with fire".

In a tweetstorm that has been dubbed "sexist", "repulsive", "grotesque", "insane", "deranged", "odious", and "vile", President Donald Trump on Thursday lashed out at MSNBC hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough, calling Brzezinski "low I.Q. Crazy Mika" and attacking her appearance.

It's unclear what prompted Trump to attack the MSNBC hosts, but during their show Wednesday the pair mocked the president following the revelations the Trump Organization was asked by Time magazine to remove fake covers of its magazine featuring Trump that were on display at several golf clubs owned by the president.

GOP Sen. Susan Collins of ME tweeted, "This has to stop - we all have a job - 3 branches of gov't and media". He claimed that Brzezinski "was bleeding badly from a facelift" at the time and that: "I said no!"

J.K. Rowling has frequently trashed President Donald Trump via Twitter and Thursday is no different.

Democrat Nita Lowey of NY says, "The president's behavior should be repudiated loudly and clearly".

Using that logic, he should be delighted that Brzezinski made a decision to do us all a favor and allegedly get her conventionally attractive face lifted so we have something nice to look at on TV.

A few months later, during the first presidential debate, Trump declared, in all seriousness, "I think my strongest asset, maybe by far, is my temperament". "From his Twitter slurs to his policies, we have a president who continues to show us he has no regard for women and whose comments demean the office he holds".

"I do believe this is beneath the dignity of the White House and the presidency", McCain said, adding that there are so many more important issues we should be focusing on, like health care, North Korea, and the economy. "And he could do whatever he likes with it", Trump said.

It's not clear what exactly set Trump off, however, because, as he's said, he doesn't watch the show anymore.
