Donald Trump spent part of Sunday night’s debate boasting about how many followers he has on social media.

When asked if he had the discipline to be a good leader, Trump gave a long and rambling answer that ended with a brag about how he had a combined 25 million followers on Facebook and Twitter.

Katy Perry was unimpressed.

The pop star responded ― where else ― on Twitter to NBC’s Ronan Farrow, who had tweeted about Trump’s brag:

Perry, a Hillary Clinton supporter, has 93.4 million on Twitter and another 71 million on Facebook.

Farrow replied:

By Trump’s standards, America has already spoken. See you on inauguration day, President Perry.

Donate to support Muslims, refugees, women, Latinos and other groups Donald Trump has insulted.
