President Trump on Sunday lashed out at MSNBC host Donny Deutsch, who has recently launched his own politics-themed show on the cable network.
Trump criticized Deutsch, while bragging that the MSNBC host would ask to be on “The Apprentice” back when the president hosted the reality game show.
“So funny to watch Little Donny Deutsch on TV with his own failing show. When I did The Apprentice, Donny would call me (along with @ErinBurnett & others) and BEG to be on that VERY successful show. He had the TV ‘bug’ & I would let him come on though he (& Erin) had very little TV talent,” Trump said in a series of tweets Sunday evening.
“Then, during the 2016 Election, I would watch as Joe Scarborough & his very angry Psycho wife(?) would push Donny to the point of total humiliation. He would never fight back because he wanted to stay on TV, even on a very low rated show, all in the name of ambition!” he wrote.

Trump’s tweets follow Deutsch’s Friday remarks on “Morning Joe” that Trump supporters “own the blood that happens.”
“I think that’s the message that’s got to get out there: ‘You own it. You own the blood that happens. You own Charlottesville. You can’t do it. You get the whole package,’ ” Deutsch said, referring to Charlottesville, Va., the site of a 2017 white supremacist rally that turned deadly.

Everybody is always begging Donald for a job. Hard to imagine any past POTUS talking like this. You can’t.
