Arnold Schwarzenegger Had the Perfect Comeback to Donald Trump's Insults About The Apprentice

On Friday, Donald Trump picked one of his most perplexing fights yet. In a pair of tweets, our president-elect called out his Celebrity Apprentice successor Arnold Schwarzenegger. While Trump seemed intent on picking over the less-than-stellar ratings and throwing shade at Hillary Clinton (again), it was Schwarzenegger's response that may have completely unraveled any punch the tweets may have packed. Trump's tweets have been under particularly harsh scrutiny lately, which should not be alarming considering he's been sounding off with praise for Vladimir Putin, evident distaste for Alec Baldwin's SNL portrayal, and plenty of self-congratulating. For now, though, let's not digress. Here's how things went between Trump and Schwarzenegger.

Trump's Tweets

The newest iteration of the series aired Monday night, but it wasn't until Friday that Trump officially weighed in with his thoughts. What started out as a ratings comparison quickly devolved into another dig at Hillary Clinton. The overall intention, it would seem, was to insult Schwarzenegger.

In response to the tweets, Schwarzenegger turned the focus to where it should be: on the people and America. After he deflected the insults, he also followed up with a profound quote from Abraham Lincoln, which he first posted the day after the election.

How high are the chances of a response from Trump? Pretty high, we'd say.
