The prince had to bail Trump out again.
During Donald Trump’s latest round of on-again, off-again rants against Fox News, he re-tweeted an obviously fake, Photoshopped photo of network anchor Megyn Kelly.
The photo purported to show Kelly standing between billionaire Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal and a woman dressed in a burqa, which the tweet claimed was the prince’s sister.
Trump tweeted:
“@BradCross4: @Drudge_Report_ @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/Ur1qgG291Z“
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 28, 2016
Snopes reported in August that the photo was fake. It was actually taken from a publicity shot of Kelly — alone. The other two figures were Photoshopped in.
As for the Saudi prince’s business relationship with Fox, PunditFact reported that he owns a small stake of the network’s parent company, Newscorp.
Al-Waleed tweeted:
Trump:You base your statements on photoshopped pics?I bailed you out twice;a 3rd time,maybe? https://t.co/Raco0mvusp https://t.co/jStBl7Ghia

Let the snark begin.

@Alwaleed_Talal That’s too funny. What were the other two bailouts?
— Jason Buttrill (@JasonButtrill) January 28, 2016
Apparently, the other two “bailouts” the prince referred to are purchases he’d made from Trump — a hotel and a yacht.

And finally there was this message:
@Alwaleed_Talal @realDonaldTrump @BradCross4 @Drudge_Report_ This. Is. Awesome. You just won the internet today.

This isn’t the first time Trump and Al-Waleed have locked horns. Last month he called upon the real estate developer to drop out of the presidential race.
.@realDonaldTrump You are a disgrace not only to the GOP but to all America. Withdraw from the U.S presidential race as you will never win.
