'Trump is a stupid man’s version of a President': Internet pelts Trump for 'poor man's Don King' attack on LaVar Ball

In an early morning Twitter storm Wednesday, President Donald Trump attacked LaVar Ball, the father of a UCLA basketball player arrested in China for shoplifting sunglasses. Ball refused to thank the president in a television appearance with CNN's Chris Cuomo on Monday, though his son did thank Trump.

The president has become consumed with the idea of “credit” for allegedly convincing Chinese President Xi Jinping to free the players from jail. "IT WAS ME!" Trump demanded in all capital letters. He went on to blast Ball as a "poor man's Don King without the hair."

The internet erupted into a frenzy of attacks against Trump. You can see the best below:
