PHOENIX – A Phoenix school board and local high school are at war after a heated exchange about Donald Trump on Twitter.

Deer Valley Unified School District board president Kimberly Fisher posted an article that called into question Trump’s understanding of religious denominations, along with her thoughts on the matter, The Arizona Republic reports.

“The most deceptive article I have seen,” Fisher tweeted. “It attempts to spin words to deceive Christians. Be warned od (sic) media deception.”

The tweet prompted Barry Goldwater High School teacher Aude Odeh, a Palestinian Muslim, to chime in and challenge Fisher’s analysis.

The two got into a heated debate that also involved other Twitter users and eventually turned to Trump’s travel ban. Odeh claimed immigrants have always been thoroughly screened, and Fisher allegedly lashed out, according to the news site.

“Because you say so? B*******,” Fisher wrote. “You are an anti-American Trump hating troll no matter what you say it’s b*******.”

Naturally, Odeh launched a Change.org petition drive calling for Fisher’s ouster.

“As a Palestinian American Muslim, I have been called worse names in my life, but never anything like this from one of my superiors. I tried to let it roll off my back, but have since concluded that I will neither suffer this abuse nor fear any future retaliation at the hands of the DVUSD school board president!” Odeh wrote in the petition.

“As President of the Board, she MUST realize that her conduct in any public space (as her twitter account was public at the time) MUST be held to the highest of standards, just like every educator understands they must do the same. This District cannot have a BOARD PRESIDENT that resorts to name calling to express different opinions,” the petition reads.

Fisher apologized to Odeh on Twitter and defended herself in a rambling address at a Tuesday school board meeting.

“The correspondence that occurred from an individual who had been trolling me on Twitter … at the time, though he’s claiming differently now, was from an individual on his private page as a private citizen, and I respect his …. First Amendment right. And I also reserve mine,” Fisher said.

Fisher claimed she only represents the school district when she’s at the district office, and claimed her children now live in “fear” because of the incident.

She also refused to resign.

“I would not ask a student who was bullied to apologize when they responded, even if their response was negative,” Fisher told The Republic. “I will not apologize for defending myself, even if it was not in the nicest manner.”

Odeh and her supporters lined up at the school board meeting to explain why Fisher should go, and vowed to file a petition to recall her if she doesn’t resign.
