The New York Daily News tweeted its latest front page featuring an illustration of President Donald Trump and former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon as birds engaged in a cockfight.
The headline, "Cuck Fight," was emblazoned across the front. "Cuck" is a pejorative term used by the so-called alt-right for a man who has no self-respect, or more broadly for politically liberal males.
The cover also references Trump's retort to quotes from Bannon in Michael Wolff's upcoming tell-all book about the Trump administration — titled "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House."
In the book, Bannon is quoted as saying a meeting between Donald Trump Jr. and a Russian lawyer in 2016 was "treasonous," The Guardian reported.
In his reply, Trump said the Breitbart News executive chairman "lost his mind" when he "lost his job" at the White House.
The White House says Bannon's departure last August had been a mutual decision between chief of staff John Kelly and himself.
