— -- Donald Trump didn't hold back when responding to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's decision to call him "a faker" in an interview.

"For her to come out and to say the kind of things [she said], there's almost something wrong with her," Trump said in an interview on Fox News today.

"I think I'm questioning perhaps her mental capacity," Trump said.

Trump later posted on Twitter, vowing to "swamp Justice Ginsburg with real judges and real legal opinions!"

Ginsburg, who is 83 years old, was interviewed by The New York Times earlier this week, in which she made some controversial comments about the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.

"I can’t imagine what this place would be -- I can’t imagine what the country would be with Donald Trump as our president," she said

In that interview, she said that her late husband would have suggested they move to New Zealand if Trump won the presidency.

Trump's latest comments weren't the first that he made about the issue.

Even The New York Times sided with Trump, publishing an editorial this morning saying that he was right and she "needs to drop the political punditry and the name-calling."
