Last week we reported that shock jock radio host Howard Stern bragged about being awake while also taking pictures of former President Donald Trump. Now Trump is firing back at Stern in a big way, even going so far as to label the woke leftist a “broken lunatic.”

Trump sounds out
“The real Howard Stern is a weak, pathetic and disloyal man who has lost his friends and a LOT of his audience,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. ‘Until recently, I haven’t heard his name mentioned in years. I used to do his show a lot, and then he went to Woke, and no one cares about him anymore.
“I don’t know what they’re paying him (really!), but it shouldn’t be much,” he continued. “His influence is gone, and without it he has NOTHING – just a broken weirdo, unattractive inside and out, trying like crazy to be relevant!”
Stern loves being awake
This came days after Stern went on a bizarre rant about how much he likes being woken up.
“I often hear that because I’m awake, I’m out of sorts,” Stern said on Monday’s episode of his SiriusXM show, according to The New York Post. “I consider it a compliment that I’m awake. I’ll tell you what I think about it. For me, sleeping is the opposite of being awake.”
“And if woke means I can’t support Trump, which is what I think it means, or that I support people who want to be transgender or that I’m for the vaccine, then call me woke if you fucking want to,” he continued.

Stern bashes Trump and his supporters
Before Trump became president, he was a regular guest on Stern’s radio show, and the two men seemed to have a good relationship. However, that all changed once Trump took office, at which point Stern suffered one of the worst cases of Trump distortion syndrome of anyone in the media, using his radio show to obsessively target his former friend and those who voted for him to fall. .

“The strange thing about all this is that the people Trump despises the most love him the most,” Stern said in 2020, according to Deadline. “The people who overwhelmingly vote for Trump… He wouldn’t even let them into a damn hotel. He would be disgusted by them. Go to Mar-a-Lago, see if there are people who look like you. I’m talking to you in the audience.”
“I don’t hate Donald,” Stern continued. “I hate you for voting for him, for not having intelligence.”

Stern calls on Trump to resign
Stern also called on Trump to resign that same year.
“I think it would be extremely patriotic if Donald were to say, ‘I’m in over my head and I don’t want to be president anymore,’” Stern said, according to The Hill. “It would be so patriotic that I would hug him, and then I would go back to Mar-a-Lago and have dinner with him and feel good about him because it would be so easy to do.”

Trump’s latest comments about Stern demonstrate once again that the former president is not to be messed with. Stern can be as woke as he wants to be, but at the end of the day he is no match for Trump!
