Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal has called Donald Trump a disgrace to the United States following his call for a ban on Muslims entering the country, and demanded the Republican front-runner withdraw from the U.S. presidential race.
Trump triggered an international uproar when he made his comments in response to last week's deadly shootings in California by two Muslims who authorities said were radicalized.
'You are a disgrace not only to the GOP but to all America,' Prince Alwaleed, the chairman of Kingdom Holding, said on his Twitter account, addressing Trump and referring to the Republican Party.
'Withdraw from the U.S presidential race as you will never win,' the prince, who is worth $24.9 billion added.
Within hours, Trump's response came back, also on Twitter.
'Dopey Prince @Alwaleed_Talal wants to control our U.S. politicians with daddy's money,' he said. 'Can't do it when I get elected.'
Trump's comments have already cost him business in the Middle East, with a major chain of department stores halting sales of his glitzy 'Trump Home' line of lamps, mirrors and jewellery boxes.
On Thursday, Dubai real estate firm Damac, which is building a $6 billion golf complex with Trump, stripped the property of his name and image.

Full title...
Saudi Prince calls Trump a ‘disgrace’ - but the tycoon fires back by accusing him of meddling in US politics with ‘daddy’s money’
Sic ‘em, Trump. Love it.
Those Osama Bin Laden people have stay together...don’t you know....
Finally...it looks like there is someone who cannot be BOUGHT. What a concept!!!
trump should have added: How many refugees is your kingdom admitting? If the number is over ten, call back.
Hey Prince Putz, when your country allows churches and synagogues to be built, and when you stop stoning women to death, get back to me.
He has all the right enemies
Thanks for the endorsement Alwaleed.
This is MORE proof that Saudi money has corrupted politics here. Sold proof. We need someone to break the grip even if we have to suffer financially. So be it.
Why doesn’t Trump just ask him how many Christians Saudi Arabia allows to live and practice their religion in Saudi Arabia?
Hehehe...the Saudi Prince has gotten used, over the last eight years, to a shameful American POTUS, who would bow to him.
If Trump is elected, he better get that notion completely out of his head. Trump will not bow, and Trump will ensure that it is American interests that are foremost on the agenda...take it or leave it...its the art of the deal.
Saudi billionaire Prince got his money by helping himself to his countries Oil revenue
Just because Saudi Arabia doesn’t allow Christianity into Saudi Arabi doesn’t mean that the United States can not allow Muslims into the United States. No, what is good for the goose is not good for the gander. Saudis are special.
...and he's willing to lose much more money that he could ever make as POTUS for the country he loves.
This will shock our Ruling Class politicians. Trump and his Neanderthal supporters at it again.
Guess what Princey oh-so-rich. Trump just told you to go get stuffed.
Wow I think the American people see the dems and establishment GOP are lining up in the corner of the muslims, the illegals, every threat to our country.
I can’t imagine Trump can lose an election like this.
Yeah Saudi princes are real popular here. Maybe he should do photo ops with Hilary for her campaign.
Ooh the Saudis are feeling it. They’re going to have to pull their funding out of the Jeb campaign and consider what it will be like to not run our government
Because Saudi Arabia is a bastion of tolerance.
