Donald Trump fires back at 2016 rival: You 'couldn’t be elected dog catcher'
Reuters/Business Insider ^ | July 1st, 2015 | By Colin Campbell

Real-estate magnate Donald Trump fired off angry tweets at one of his GOP rivals in the presidential race Wednesday, accusing him of being a has-been who couldn't get elected to office again.

The rival, former New York Gov. George Pataki (R), has recently been criticizing Trump's controversial comments about illegal immigration.

Pataki told Business Insider on Tuesday that Trump was "disrespectful" and subsequently wrote a letter to the Republican field urging them to join him in denouncing Trump.

Trump, as is his wont, responded by trashing Pataki on Twitter:

Well, it's true and everyone knows it but poor George.

I figure he's out of the race now.

That is a weird thing for a 69 year old man who has been trying to run for office for 16 years, and never won an election, to say to his Governor.

Every elected politician refusing to stop abetting this invasion, who does not get with Trump should be so completely in shame that he should get out of the race

Trump is doing the job of a congressman, calling attention to the damage being done

I’m sure Lindsey Graham is re-tweeting Pataki right now.

Pataki? Really? He's been in mothballs since what, 2006?

Who needs it.

What is your problem with Donald Trump? Why can’t you just sit back and enjoy the ride?

I would think we'd all be happy with the RINOs, the media, Telemundo, etc being dragged into sh*t throwing contests with the Donald.

I'm tickled to death. Its a win win.

Trump has never been elected to anything. It’s a pathetic political attack. I suspect he’s tweeting again?

7 figures of donations to liberals that funded their destruction of America in part.

Unless any of the Trump junkies think any $$$ figure greater than zero going to a liberal results in a benefit to America.

Anyone want to make that argument? Lets hear it.

That's what I'm sayin'.

No matter HOW it turns out it's going to be fun AND spells the end of the (e)Republican Party.

It dudn' get any better than that.

Remember the Eddie Murphy Skit about Jessie Jackson? He joked about getting wasted and voting with his buddies for Jessie jackson. He woke up turned the news and “He F’ing WON?!?!?!?!?!”

Think of that happening for real with Trump.
