Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has fired back at Barry Diller after the media mogul threatened to leave the the United States if Trump were elected.
Trump tweeted Saturday, “Little Barry Diller, who lost a fortune on Newsweek and Daily Beast, only writes badly about me. He is a sad and pathetic figure. Lives lie!”
Diller slammed Trump in a Bloomberg Businessweek piece published Tuesday, calling the candidate “a huckster,” adding, “If Donald Trump doesn’t fall, I’ll either move out of the country or join the resistance.”
Diller’s IAC owns the website The Daily Beast and financed its merger in 2010 with the magazine Newsweek.
