The business tycoon lashed out at English comedian and actor Russell Brand last Thursday through his Twitter account saying, "I watched Russell Brand @rustyrockets on the @jimmyfallon show the other night—what the hell do people see in Russell—a major loser!" Adding fuel to the fire, Trump, added, "@katyperry must have been drunk when she married Russell Brand @rustyrockets – but he did send me a really nice letter of apology!"
The radio hosts retaliated tweeting, ".@realDonaldTrump are you drunk when you write these tweets? Or does that foam you spray on your bald head make you high?" He also tweeted, "I don't think your daddy left you any witty ripostes, and everything you have you inherited."
Trump, 68, mistakenly tweeted that the actor was on NBC's Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon when in fact, he appeared on NBC's Today, ABC's The View and CBS' The Late Show with David Letterman last Oct. 13. E! News also reports that Brand posted a link on his Twitter account about the businessman being 'deadbeat' to which Trump pushed the limit, mentioning Brand's ex-wife, Katy Perry.
"@katyperry Katy, what the hell were you thinking when you married loser Russell Brand. There is a guy who has got nothing going, a waste!" He tweeted. He continued to ".@katyperry I watched Russell Brand and I think his mind is fried - he looks really bad. Russell is a total joke, a dummy who is lost!"
Katy Perry hasn't commented on the issue.
Whose side are you on? Team Trump or Team Brand?
