If you think Donald Trump is anywhere near shutting up, you're wrong.

In fact, when he's not offending people left and right during interviews, he continues doing so on Twitter.

According to CBS News, the Republican Presidential candidate may be limited to 140 characters, but his Twitter war with high-profile persons knows no bounds.

His latest target, for instance, include his opponents for the Republican slate, and once again he decided to fire at Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly.

In a tweet, he lashed out at her, saying, "@megynkelly must have had a terrible vacation, she is really off her game. Was afraid to confront Dr. Cornel West. No clue on immigration!"

He also retweeted a message calling the anchor a bimbo.

After a feud with Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes, things seemed to have calmed down a bit.

However, on Tuesday, Ailes called Trump "crude and irresponsible". He also said that "Donald Trump rarely apologizes, although in this case, he should."

Trump absolutely refused to do so, even for his renewed attacks on the microblogging site.

Trump said, "She actually should be apologizing to me," adding that her attitude at the debate, where they first had an exchange of words, was "totally inappropriate."

He also went after fellow presidential candidate Jeb Bush, tweeting, "Jeb Bush never uses his last name on advertising, signage, materials etc. Is he ashamed of the name BUSH? A pretty sad situation. Go Jeb!"

He continued on attacking fellow candidates, including Lindsey Graham, in a post that CBS said was more appropriate for a schoolyard taunt.

"Congrats @LindseyGrahamSC. You just got 4 points in your home state of SC-far better than zero nationally. You're only 26 pts behind me," Trump tweeted.

However, Trump's taunts did not do a lot for him, nor did it do much damage for his "enemies".

According to the Los Angeles Times, Megyn Kelly's ratings soared despite Trump's rampage, with her show, "The Kelly File" delivering 3.1 million viewers on Monday - the largest audience by far, and definitely more than the rest of her competition in cable news.

Although most of the audience may have tuned in to see how Kelly would respond to Trumps mudslinging, she refused to do so and drew a Trump-free broadcast instead by having another Republican presidential candidate - Ben Carson - on the show.

Although to be fair, the strong lead from "The O'Reilly Factor" may have also contributed, with the show having an interview with Trump as an opener, gathering 3.3 million views.

What do you think of Trump's attitude on social media?
