Burn.

Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic Presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton may not tweet nearly as often as President Donald Trump, but her ability to troll the President on the site remains unmatched.

Her latest troll comes after Trump's bizarre letter to Turkish President Recep Erdogan in which Trump warned Erdogan not to be a "fool" or a "tough guy," then compared him to the devil if he didn't invade Northern Syria in a "humane" way.


Clinton proceeded to share a mock letter from President John F. Kennedy to Russian Premier Nikita Khruschev at the height of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. When Russia began building nuclear missile sites in Cuba, Kennedy deployed a naval blockade to block Russia from delivering more supplies. Khruschev and Kennedy reached a deal that saw Russia withdraw its test sites on the condition that the US not invade Cuba. The deal lessened tensions between the USSR and the US.

Had Kennedy sent this letter, things probably would've gone differently...

The letter reads in part:

"Dear Premier Khruschev,

Don't be a dick, ok? Get your missiles out of Cuba. Everybody will say 'Yay! Khrushchev! You're the best!' But if you don't everybody will be like 'what an asshole' and call your garbage country 'The Soviet Bunion.'

You're really busting my nuts here."

Twitter was quick to applaud.

Clinton shared the letter one day after the State Department—the third entity to investigate her use of a private email server to conduct State Department business—found no evidence of intentional wrongdoing, despite Trump's three-year-old calls to "lock her up."

Buttigieg Sparks Debate With Response To Harris Revealing She Wanted Him As Her Running Mate

After former Vice President Kamala Harris revealed in her new memoir 107 Days that former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg would've been her first choice for running mate in last year's election if it wasn't for the fact that he's gay, Buttigieg responded he'd like to give Americans "more credit," remarks that have sparked a heated debate.

Harris, who ultimately selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate, wrote that she felt it would be "too big of a risk" for a Black woman to run for president with a gay man at her side. She described Buttigieg as "an ideal partner—if I were a straight white man."

Trump Roasted After Claiming He Stopped 'Conflict' Between Two Nations That Are 4,000 Miles Apart

President Donald Trump was mocked online after he sounded off on why he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize and claimed to have resolved a "conflict" between Cambodia and Armenia—two countries that have never been at war and are 4,150 miles apart.

Trump made the remark during a Saturday appearance at the American Cornerstone Institute's Founders' Dinner at the Mount Vernon estate in Virginia. While Trump did not describe what had transpired between the leaders of the respective capitals of Phnom Penh and Yerevan, he nonetheless insisted that war "was just starting, and it was a bad one."
