The Donald and The Rosie…Not So Fond of One Another
Surprise, Surprise. Rosie O’Donnell disapproves of someone — in this case, Donald Trump and the way he handled the Miss USA scandal. Surprise, Surprise. Donald Trump is quick with the childish insults and threatens to sue. I’m loathe to agree with either one of the hypocrites in question, but they both come with some pretty valid criticism about the other. PEOPLE’s got the quotes.Rosie on Donald:
“(He) left the first wife – had an affair. (He) had kids both times, but he’s the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America. Donald, sit and spin, my friend.” …After repeatedly saying she “didn’t enjoy him,” Rosie discussed Trump’s finances – saying he went bankrupt, which Trump denies – and likened him to the “snake-oil salesman on Little House On The Prairie. This is not a self-made man,” O’Donnell said. And while O’Donnell and her View co-hosts discussed Conner’s alleged drug and alcohol abuse, Rosie was dismissive, saying, “She went out and she was partying – doing what Paris and Lindsay do.” She also turned her wrath toward the Miss USA organization itself. “Miss America is the prestige,” she said. “Miss USA is a different thing. It’s basically a model competition. Let’s be realistic”…
Donald on Rosie:
“You can’t make false statements,” Trump tells PEOPLE exclusively. “Rosie will rue the words she said. I’ll most likely sue her for making those false statements – and it’ll be fun. Rosie’s a loser. A real loser. I look forward to taking lots of money from my nice fat little Rosie.”…He also thinks Rosie’s rant against him was personal. Trump says he once sarcastically chastised Rosie about her “failed magazine” and “failed talk show.” Added The Donald: “I think she’s just terrible.”
I wonder… In a case like this, where both people in the argument are equally annoying and wrong, does the whole thing just cancel out? [Source]

It is clear — Rosie realizes that keeping the pot stirred is the only thing that keeps her in the public eye. She continuously draws first blood. Simply put, she\’s abrasive and needs help in removing the chip from her shoulder.
More power to Rosie and her beautiful family, but she really needs to find another line of work. Here\’s hoping she got an education.

I wasn’t particularly a big fan of the view before Rosie because I thought it was boring and I couldn’t stand looking at Star Jones. Then when Rosie came on I thought she was taking over and I thought that the whole interest of the show had shifted over to her and her life. But then I found myself tuning in every day to see what she was going to say. Somehow I have started likeing The View and Rosie again. I think we should take it for what it is: which is entertainment. I thought her comments about Donald Trump were dead on and quite funny. Donald on the other hand took it to a whole new level. He’s not on a show where he can share his “view” for entertainment. So instead he uses media outlets to say things about Rosie that were uncalled for and offensive to anyone who is a little over weight, homosexual, etc. I think he should have to pay for what he said and by this I mean that people should boycott his show and anything with his name on it. Since the only thing this man cares about is his money, that’s what will hurt him the most. So I vow to never put my time or money into the Trump organization and I hope others do the same. His comments were unacceptable and I personally wish to never have to listen to his voice again. Thanks for letting me share my “view” on the subject.
