From October, 2015. http://money.cnn.com/2015/10/16/media/donald-trump-graydon-carter-feud/index.html
According to Donald Trump, there's a new rumor that Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter is about to be ousted.
Trump tweeted the same rumor a year and a half ago, and it hasn't come true yet.
This time, in a tweet on Friday evening, he said "rumor has it" that Carter "is going to be fired or replaced very soon?"
Trump despises Carter and Carter doesn't much like him, either.
In 2012 Trump tweeted, "Can't wait for Vanity Fair to fold which, under Graydon Carter, will be sooner rather than later."
The feud between the two New York City A-listers dates back more than 25 years, to the days when Trump was a brash real estate billionaire on the rise and Carter was co-editing Spy, the legendary satirical magazine he founded with Kurt Andersen. [I remember Spy!]
The magazine took delight in trashing Trump. "In modern media terms, Donald Trump was our clickbait," Spy contributing editor Bruce Feirstein recalled in August.
Carter took credit for coming up with the phrase "short-fingered vulgarian" to describe Trump in 1988. And Trump has never forgotten it.
Spy magazine struggled to stay afloat, and Trump celebrated when it stopped publishing.
In 2012 Trump's first tweet about Carter was a prediction that the famed editor would "preside over the end of Vanity Fair" in the same way he "drove Spy Magazine into bankruptcy." [Trump companies have been in bankruptcy.]
In two dozen tweets since, he has lambasted Carter for having "no talent," for being a "real loser," and for being "sleepy" and "dopey." [Trump calls everyone he opposes a "loser," doesn't he? That is his own greatest fear. He also criticized Jeb Bush and Ben Carson for being "low-energy," "sleepy." Trump seems to have an energy fetish. An energy pill fetish?! lol. ] Once he wrote that "Graydon Carter is a major loser, just ask his wife!" [In-ter-es-ting! That is so personal and, what is he implying, that he, Trump, did Carter's wife, or she cuckolded Carter? Omg, hilarious.]
