Vanity Fair Coyly Responds to Trump on Twitter

Earlier today, a now-predictable chain of events happened. A news outlet criticized something in President-elect Donald Trump‘s orbit that didn’t even have anything to do with his presidency, so he attacked the outlet on Twitter.

Vanity Fair was the magazine under attack this time and they responded with a variation on the classic, “Who, me?”

Here’s what they tweeted:

Is this the story that set @realdonaldtrump off this morning? https://t.co/Vnb9cvUmSh

— VANITY FAIR (@VanityFair) December 15, 2016

The move was a calculated one designed to get even more people to click on the article and share it. After seeing the tweet, a certain jam comes to mind…

Vanity Fair is back in the game. Trump’s move again.
