T-Mobile CEO John Legere is no stranger to having his tweets picked up and turned into headlines, a limelight that he seems to relish as he continues to push T-Mobile up through the ranks of U.S. carriers. Likewise, Donald Trump seems to be one of those larger-than-life characters in U.S. culture and he is not afraid to Tweet. Unfortunately, the two crossed paths over the weekend and it was not pretty although it has been entertaining for those who enjoy a good flame war.
It all started when Legere tweeted about some noise in his hotel room at a Trump property caused by some street musicians. For some unknown reason, Trump took this as an invitation to respond that “T-Mobile service is terrible!” and asking why it cannot be improved. In response to that, Legere posted that he was immediately leaving Trump’s hotel.
The sniping has continued throughout the weekend. Trump has even gone so far as to criticize Legere’s hair after the T-Mobile chief posted a picture while out for a run with his daughter. You read that right – Trump was criticizing someone’s hairdo.
The flaming seems to be dying down, especially after Legere indicated he was done and would no longer be retweeting any of the memes that the Internet was generating. Whether the two gentlemen were really annoyed and irritated with each other or just realized they could have some fun pushing on each other is unknown.
.@JohnLegere T-Mobile service is terrible! Why can't you do something to improve it for your customers. I don't want it in my buildings.
