Donald Trump has backtracked over a series of scathing tweets he wrote about President Obama as he secured a second term last night - hastily deleting messages calling for a 'revolution'.

And when NBC's Brian Williams lambasted Trump's Twitter tantrum on his show, the outspoken business mogul turned his anger on the host and his 'boring' newscasts.



Trump took to the social networking site after the president's victory was projected by several news outlets on Tuesday night, and claimed the re-election was a ' great and disgusting injustice'.

After a barrage of outraged messages, Trump added: 'He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!'

However, as it became apparent that former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney would not win the election, the Donald’s tweets became more enraged, and more hyperbolic.

Trump began with: 'Well, back to the drawing board!'

He quickly followed up with a call to revolution. The Trump wrote: 'He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!' - before deleting the tweet.

But he was far from over. 'This election is a total sham and a travesty,' he wrote. 'We are not a democracy! He added America is in 'serious and unprecedented trouble like never before'.

The 66-year-old later went onto attack the Electoral College, but offered a kernel of hope for the still-Republican House of Representatives.

‘Hopefully the House can hold our country together for four more years,’ Trump tweeted.



‘House shouldn’t give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare.’ He did not tweet anything after Romney's gracious concession speech.

But he didn't keep his anger quiet for long, unleashing yet more scathing remarks on Wednesday morning - this time against Brian Williams, who uses the Twitter handle @bwilliams.

He wrote: '@bwilliams knows that I think his newscast has become totally boring so he took a shot at me last night.'

Second rant: on Wednesday, Trump turned on Brian Williams who had criticised his previous messages

'The only thing more boring than @bwilliams newscast is his show Rock Center which is totally dying in the ratings - a disaster!' he added, before asking him: 'Wouldn't you love to have my ratings?'

He went on: 'If I'm "well past the last exit to relevance" how come you spent so much time reading my tweets last night?'



Trump’s attacks on Obama have been more frequent in the weeks preceding the election.

Only last week, he lashed out at the commander-in-chief for using Superstorm Sandy to garner more votes and essentially buy the election.

The billionaire’s grudge hasn’t gone unnoticed by the president.



During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, Obama quipped that their rivalry began when the two were growing up in Kenya.

‘We had constant run-ins on the soccer field, he wasn’t that good,’ Obama told the NBC late-night host.
