Donald Trump once called Anthony Weiner a pervert - and now Twitter users are using the insult against him.

Internet sleuths have dug up a 2013 tweet in which Trump called out the disgraced congressman.

Weiner, who had previously lost his Congress seat to a sexting scandal, was running for New York mayor at the time and was trying to launch his political career again. But his campaign was derailed  when new explicit messages surfaced.

'As I told everyone once before, Wiener [sic] is a sick puppy who will never change-100% of perverts go back to their ways. Sadly, there is no cure,' Trump tweeted in 2013.

'Pot meet kettle,' one user tweeted after Trump was caught on tape saying stars could 'do anything' to women, including grabbing them 'by the pussy'.

Another one told the GOP nominee in 2013: 'You would know.' In light of Trump's newly-revealed comments, a fellow Twitter user said: 'You certainly called this one.'

One of the latest tweets read: 'Finally a comment from @realDonaldTrump based on personal knowledge.'

Trump insisted multiple times during Sunday's presidential debate that his comments about grabbing women's genitals were 'locker-room' talk.

Senator John McCain and Vice-President Joe Biden have both referred to the actions he described as sexual assault.

Weiner meanwhile faced additional scandals since 2013. His wife Huma Abeddin left him after it was revealed he had sent a picture of his crotch with their son next to him.

An underage girl then told the DailyMail.com Weiner had exchanged explicit messages with her.
