Trump’s comments come as the woman, who also writes for American news channel CNN, defended her television coverage after the broadcast of the special to which the ex-president was invited.
Ms Griffin said the 76-year-old lost several votes after that interview. “Americans could see who he was: a madman who sided with Vladimir Putin,” she said.
Not acknowledging his remarks, the presidential-return president explained that “the repulsive people in his party” had criticized his organization a few years after he left power in the United States. “Once a loser, now a loser,” he concludes.

Donald Trump is now asking ABC to remove Alyssa Farah Griffin from The View.
Earlier this month, Ms. Griffin noted that it was an open secret that Trump had done inappropriate things to young female employees during his tenure in the White House.
