Count Larry Elder among those who were less than impressed with Piers Morgan’s mind-bogglingly bizarre interview with Zimmerman trial witness Rachel Jeantel. The conservative author and radio host took to Twitter to zing the cocky Brit for shamelessly fawning over Jeantel:
So @piersmorgan describes #RachelJeanel as "one smart cookie". Sure, it certainly explains why the 19yr. old is still in high school.

So @piersmorgan calls #RachelJeantel "one smart cookie". Great. Hire her as a co-host.

Well, that certainly couldn’t hurt Morgan’s abysmal ratings, could it?
To @piersmorgan, L. Pratt, Gun Owners America, is "an unbelievably stupid man." But #RachelJeantel is "one smart cookie" hat tip: J.Janowski

Piers didn’t take too kindly to being trifled with by his intellectual better, and he issued Elder a challenge:
Hey @larryelder – rather than pick on a 19 year old girl, come and debate this with me on my show. If you've got the balls.

Poor sap has no idea what he’s getting himself into.
PIERS THROWS DOWN AT ELDER! IT'S ON! If @piersmorgan, you want me to debate you about this case, when and where, mi amigo, when and where?
— Larry Elder (@larryelder) July 16, 2013
Please. Please let this happen. For America.
That would be fun! -> RT @KamaainaInOC: I would pay to see @LarryElder debate @PiersMorgan.
