Flight Of The Conchords' Jemaine Clement & Scott Baio Are Throwing Down On Twitter Over Trump

Staff Writer

"I hope your long battle with puberty is over by the time you hit 60."

Flight Of The Conchord’s Jemaine Clement has lined up Scott Baio (you know, Chachi from Happy Days) on Twitter today in response to the actor's support of US president, Donald Trump.

The back-and-forth was sparked after Fox News posted a tweet quoting Baio who reportedly said, "The 'tolerant people' are the most vicious, violent intolerant people I've ever seen," in response to anti-Trump protesters.

Clement tweeted shortly after "Scott Baio supporting @realDonaldTrump is the worst Italian-German pairing since 1945".

It wasn't long before Baio chimed in on the New Zealand comedian's tweets, writing back, "You're an angry snowflake!" to which Clement responded with, "Sit on it, Chachi".

Shortly after, Baio hit back by tweeting to Clement, "That's all you've got Kiwi? Bet you live with a lot of sheep".

Clement fired back yet again, writing, "Bless you, Chachi. I hope your long battle with puberty is over by the time you hit 60".
