'The View' hosts slam Donald Trump’s social media meltdown
Joy Behar recounted the ongoing feud with a touch of humor, telling the audience, “He went on a late-night social media rant calling her one of the dumbest people in Congress and demanded she take the cognitive test he claimed to have aced.”
“I think it is koo-koo crazy, taco loco, for Donald Trump,” said co-host Ana Navarro, visibly exasperated. She added, “In the middle of military action against Iran, trying to get Iran and Israel to the table for a peace treaty, from Air Force One en route to a NATO meeting — where he'll try to be a statesman for the world to se — he’s picking a Twitter fight like a teenage girl with AOC.”

Behar chimed in with a sharper rebuke: “He really doesn't like strong women. He likes obedient, dutiful women who compliment him. This type of woman really gets under his skin.”
She pointed to Trump’s online tirade, which included calling Ocasio-Cortez “one of the dumbest people in Congress.”

AOC clapped back swiftly, tweeting, “Mr President, don’t take your anger out on me. I’m just a silly girl. Take it out on whoever convinced you to betray the American people and our Constitution."

She ended the tweet with a stinging remark, “It only took you five months to break almost every promise you made.”
