On Friday, Donald Trump tweeted at New York Magazine, the outlet that famously labeled Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) “President of Crazyland” and writes fawning love letters about the trials and tribulations of Hillary Clinton. Trump tweeted:
I love watching the dishonest writers @NYMag suffer the magazine’s failure.

Dan Amira, senior editor of New York Magazine, promptly replied:
Your wife is waiting for you to die RT @realDonaldTrump I love watching the dishonest writers @NYMag suffer the magazine’s failure.

Trump shot back:
@DanAmira @NYMag A terrible statement like that shows how desperate you and your magazine are. You should be ashamed.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 18, 2013
No wonder @NYMag is doing so poorly, with an idiot Sr. Editor like @DanAmira, it will only get worse!

Trump recommended that subscribers cancel their subscriptions to the magazine. But no advertiser should be comfortable sponsoring the magazine itself.
