Real-estate developer Donald Trump is furious at Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona) for dismissing the supporters of his presidential campaign.
McCain, the Republican Party's 2008 presidential nominee, was quoted in a Thursday article in The New Yorker criticizing Trump's heated rhetoric against illegal immigration.
The senator also said Trump's big rally last weekend in Phoenix, Arizona, was supported by the "crazies" in his state.
"This performance with our friend out in Phoenix is very hurtful to me," McCain said. "Because what he did was he fired up the crazies."
Trump responded on Twitter by blasting McCain and demanding an apology:
The thousands of people that showed up for me in Phoenix were amazing Americans. @SenJohnMcCain called them "crazies"--must apologize! 4:38 PM - 16 Jul 2015
