President Donald Trump and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg traded barbs on Sunday hours before their dueling ads were set to compete during the Super Bowl.
"Very little," Trump told Fox News of Bloomberg in a clip released hours ahead of his pre-Super Bowl interview with Sean Hannity. "I just think of little. You know, now he wants a box for the debates to stand on. OK. It's OK. There's nothing wrong. You can be short. Why should he get a box to stand on. He wants a box for the debates. Why should he be entitled? Does that mean everyone else gets a box?"
"Cory Booker and all these people couldn't get all the things that Bloomberg's getting now," Trump continued. "But, I think it's very unfair for the Democrats. But I would love to run against Bloomberg. I would love it."
It was unclear what Trump was referencing in regards to Bloomberg requesting a box to stand on during an upcoming Democratic debate. Bloomberg, whose height was trending on Google Sunday, is listed as 5 feet, 8 inches tall.
Bloomberg's campaign said there was no truth to Trump's remarks.
"The president is lying," Bloomberg campaign spokesperson Julie Wood said in a statement. "He is a pathological liar who lies about everything: his fake hair, his obesity, and his spray-on tan."
The former mayor echoed his spokesperson's remarks, saying that Trump "lies about everything so you shouldn't be surprised that he said things like that."
"I stand twice as tall as he does on the stage that matters," he added.

Going after Trump's ego with ridicule will leave a mark. Hopefully drive him crazy. These barbs are getting interesting.
