Donald Trump and Michael Bloomberg have been trading barbs on Super Bowl Sunday. Both campaigns have spent millions on ads that will air during the game, but it was Trump who started the back and forth in a pre-game interview with Sean Hannity.

Trump said Bloomberg had requested a box to stand on in the upcoming Democratic debates. Bloomberg is reportedly 5 feet 8 inches tall. Trump said: “You know, now he wants a box for the debates to stand on. OK. It’s OK. There’s nothing wrong. You can be short. Why should he get a box to stand on. He wants a box for the debates. Why should he be entitled? Does that mean everyone else gets a box?”

A spokesperson for the Bloomberg campaign shot back:

“The president is lying. He is a pathological liar who lies about everything: his fake hair, his obesity, and his spray-on tan.” Julie Wood, Bloomberg spokesperson
