Frank Luntz conducted a focus group that Trump derided as “dumb,” calling Luntz “a clown” and a “low-class slob.” Roger Stone calls Frank Luntz a 'pathetic turd'

Roger Stone, a former top adviser with Donald Trump’s campaign, took to Twitter on Tuesday to blast Republican pollster Frank Luntz for his profanity-laced tirade against the presidential candidate.

“Pathetic turd FrankLuntz begged @realDonaldTrump for corporate polling work - trashes Trump only after Trump declines,” Stone tweeted Tuesday afternoon.


Stone also challenged members of the media to find any Republican pollster who would say on the record that Luntz is “competent.”

The remarks come after a POLITICO story published earlier in the day quoted Luntz saying that the campaigns of Trump and Bernie Sanders are “delivering a big ‘f—- you’ to the elites in America.”

In another interview with POLITICO in the same article, Trump said that Fox News President Roger Ailes should fire Luntz from his job. Following the Aug. 6 debate, Luntz conducted a focus group that Trump derided as “dumb,” calling Luntz “a clown” and a “low-class slob.”

Stone and Trump parted ways earlier this month, though Trump has said that he fired his adviser and Stone has maintained that he quit hours before Trump made the announcement. Stone has continued to defend his former boss in public.
