Donald Trump to Arianna Huffington: 'No wonder your husband left you for a man'

The Donald has zeroed in on his newest target, this time taking aim at Arianna Huffington herself.

In a tweet from left field, Mr Trump announced to his 1,415,216 followers how he really feels about the 'unattractive' media magnate.

'@ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out,' the reality star said.

'I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision.'

But Mr Trump's tirade against Ms Huffington didn't end there.

'Don't think my statement on @ariannahuff was harsh, if you knew her and the phony Huffington Post you would understand--- more to follow,' he promised.

Michael Huffington and Arianna divorced in 1997 after nearly a decade of marriage.  A year after they split, he announced he was bisexual and devoted much of his time to LGBT issues.

Mr Trump has been on the offensive against the blogging empire since the Huffington Post ran a story on August 16, titled 'Donald Trump: Why so moody?'

'Is it just us, or has Donald Trump been waking up on the wrong side of the bed a little more than usual lately?' the article begins.

Citing numerous instances when Mr Trump has launched tirades on Vanity Fair, Barack Obama, Aol and the Huffington Post, the author tries to figure out why 'Donald Grump' has been so 'crabby'.

'How much longer can @VanityFair keep on losing advertisers and readers? A sad decline for a once wonderful read!' Mr Trump said on August 6.

'@HuffingtonPost is doing very badly. Also, very inaccurate stories. Like AOL, when will they fail?' Mr Trump said on August 8.

Moments after the article was posted, he attacked the Huffington Post again.

'The Huffington Post is such a loser--it will die just as AOL is dying, What a stupid deal AOL made to buy it!' he said on August 16.
