Trump gets into another Fox News feud — this time with Bill O'Reilly

Move over, Megyn Kelly: Donald Trump has a new Fox News feud. This time, it's with Fox News host Bill O'Reilly.
On Monday, Trump tweeted some complaints at O'Reilly's official Twitter account:
O'Reilly fired back Tuesday on NBC's Today. "He wants people to like him," O'Reilly told host Matt Lauer. "When people criticize him, he takes it personally. And then, you know, this machine, this tweeting thing, that's like the worst thing you could give Donald Trump is this tweeting thing. So I just think this is just an extension of his reality show, The Apprentice. This is just theater right now.... The personal stuff is a piffle."

Even though O'Reilly dismissed Trump's tweeting, he isn't entirely dismissing him as a candidate. While O'Reilly doesn't think that Trump will be leading the field "with any certainty" in the months to come, he did say that he thinks Trump "has been good for politics in America."
"Everybody else is bashing the hell out of Donald Trump," O'Reilly said. "That's the cheap thing to do. But he has engaged people, he has forced them to pay attention and they are paying attention, and that is good for America."
