Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton trade Twitter burns

Two of the front-runners vying for their respective parties' nominations for president of the United States spent Monday evening posting Twitter insults at each other.

Front-runners' Twitter accounts exchange barbs over education policy

Two of the front-runners vying for their respective parties' nominations for president of the United States spent Monday evening posting Twitter insults at each other.

Yes, Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush or, at least, their campaign teams were trolling each other on Twitter.

The social mediaspat began with a post on Clinton's account touting her education plan.

A reply to this tweet was posted to Bush's account, featuring a graphic very similar to Clinton's noting the increase in student debt under the Democraticadministration of PresidentBarack Obama.

In response, Clinton's team posted a crudely edited version of that graphic, attacking Bush's own education record as Republicangovernor of Florida, along with the internetcatch phrase "Fixed it for you."

Not to be outdone, Bush's team posted a cheeky variation on Clinton's campaign logo.

Observers of the exchange seemed to find it all unbelievable.

Or maybe unwatchable.
