Trump Opens Fire on Barbara Walters


It looks as though there will be no chance of a truce between Donald Trump and Rosie O’Donnell, as Rosie returned to “The View” on Monday from a much-needed vacation, and she wasted no time poking fun at The Donald upon her return.

“He’s like the ever ready comb-over bunny,” she joked.

Now, it’s a tag team fight, as Rosie’s boss, Barbara Walters, jumps into the fire.

“I would like to just hope that once and for all we could rise above it,” Barbara said.

“It’s not we, it’s him,” Rosie refuted.

“Extra” was with Trump across town at “Live with Regis and Kelly” Monday morning, and only we have his angry reaction to what the ladies of “The View” said about him.

“Everything that he said I said about her is totally untrue,” Barbara said on live TV, denying Trump’s claim that she had complained to him about Rosie.

And that remark had Donald ready to lash out.

“Barbara lied, and she knows very well,” Trump said. “She will have to live with herself.”

Trump is also taking Rosie to task over his remark about her weight.

“He wounded millions of women by saying that I was fat,” Rosie said on the air.

But Trump told “Extra” that Rosie, per usual, misquoted him.

“I used the word ‘slob,’ I used the word ‘degenerate,’ and I used the words ‘not very smart,’” he said. “The word ‘fat’ played a very small role in my description of her.”

Just as “The Apprentice” returned to primetime, the fired-up Trump went on “Extra” Rumor Control.

First: is it true that the feud between Trump and Martha has been fully resolved?

“Well, I haven’t spoken to Martha, but I have great respect for Martha. I like Martha and I always will,” he answered.

But what about the possibility of another bouncing baby for Donald and his beautiful wife, Melania?

“There’s always a possibility,” Trump confessed.

And finally, will Miss USA, Tara Conner, pose for Playboy?

“We’re looking at it right now,” Trump acknowledged. “There is certainly a chance.”

Trump has shown that he has no class & goes into a hissy fit temper tantrum when anyone dares to call him out for his behavior. No matter what anyone thinks of Rosie, she was correct in what she said- his business declared bankrupcy, which means he does not have to pay vendors while he still lives in a high & mighty style. Also, he did not have to have a press conference regarding the beauty pageant winner, that was just his ego wanting to be in the spotlight. I would like to remind him that there are more important things in life, our country is at war, than feeding his overblown, massive ego. He did not discover the cure to AIDS or cancer. He is a very spoiled child who came from a wealthy family.

I am so sorry all this started. I liked Donald Trump because he revamped Wollman Rink. in Central Park, which was quite an accomplishment. However I have to disagree with him in regards to the Rosie O’Donnell feud. I cannot help but think it is all theatrics on his part,but he really overdid it.. He has been so nasty..and why? She is right on the money. Also with the Kelly Rippa saga,I feel Rosie was right too. Rosie is the best supporter of Broadway. She is a tremendous asset to “The View” and I am sure they know that..Jill Jacobson..from Brooklyn, New York

It’s unveleibable how low could someone go, but not saying that Rosie was correct with what she said, I have to say that Trump has proved to be, one more time, a classless bigget!!.
Rosie is on a TV show, where you are supposed to express your view on things, and that is what she is getting paid for. THe juicier the better.
Donald Trump is a business man and he has behaved like a low class gossiper.
I do believe that he hates women. All his attacks are on them. That is called a “MISOGENIST”.
Barbara Walters knew how Rosie was before she hired her. Rosie is Rosie and she hasn’t changed.

The only coment that I have is that two wrongs do not make a right. Rosie was wrong to hit him below the belt by mocking his hair which is a sensitive subject for him and he hit back with her weight which is a sensitive subject for her. They should both appoligize, her first and him second because she did attact first and then put and end to all of the hurtful remarks. Barbara should not even have been brought into the situation at all. She was just a innocent bystander and it isn’t fair that she has to be involved. It isn’t fair for Donald or Rosie to attack Barbara, she didn’t insult anyone and shouldn’t have to explain herself.

Rosie is clearly an idiot and deserves every word the Donald said about her. It will teach her a lesson before she opens her big-fat mouth the next time. Making racist remarks about Asians and also turning the Kelly Ripa and Clay incident into a gay thing just shows you how ridiculous she is. The only person that is putting her in her place is The Donald. Donald - YOU ARE THE MAN! I can’t stand Rosie! I bet she wishes she never opened her fat mouth up!

I don’t have anything to say about Donald, Rosie and Barbara cause that’s so Elementary!!! I do want to say that I don’t agree and I most definitely don’t think it’s fair to first, give Miss USA a second chance for underage drinking that caused the organization MADD to release her of her spokesperson duties. What is the problem? I would have done the same thing. She needs to have her crowned stripped, obviously, she needs to be taught a lesson and going to rehab is not it. She didn’t admit having a problem, she is just careless in her social activities and got caught. You go to rehab when you have a consistent drinking problem. Now you are considering or allowing her to pose for playboy as long as she keeps some of her clothes on. What is really going on? Playboy is Playboy and why would you even want someone from a highly world known organization to even be associated with the likes of Playboy. It’s almost like Donald is encouraging her. He really is catering to her and she needs to be taught a lesson. Second, You stripped Miss Nevada of her crown for having “raunchy pictures” on the internet. Same thing to me and she probably had on just as much clothing as they say Miss USA will have on(Ha Ha Ha). Just an FYI, I remember when Vanessa Williams, who is a singer and actress won Miss America several years ago and what do you know, she was stripped of her crown for posing for Playboy. Imagine that! No second chances, no ifs, ands, or buts. Now, maybe Donald didn’t have anything to do with pageants then but I feel like all rules apply and they should be followed because everybody goes into this knowing what they can and cannot do. To me ,I feel like Miss USA is no different than anybody else. No one else got a second chance and that’s not right or fair. Ya’ll have made me mad with this one.

The whole Rosie O’Donnell/Donald Trump thing is getting so silly that I really can’t take it so seriously, nor do I want to; it’s a really lame situation!

I must agree completely . Neither Trump,Rosie,nor Walters deserve a bit of publicity . Neither of these people have an ounce of moral fiber beyond the all mighty dollar . None of these people have the right to call any one names of any sort. This whole thing is nothing but publicity in the first place . Everytime Trump , or Rosie get into it with anyone else it becomes a media frenzy . Ignore them and they will go away!!!!

Trump is clearly a no class, incredibly rich slimeball who engages in namecalling which should be beneath someone of his stature. I don’t like the idea that it’s been made into a feminist issue by Rosie O’Donnell, who is despicable in her own right. A public figure of Trump’s stature calling anyone fat, man or woman is crass and uncalled for, but Barbara Walters and Rosie O’Donnell are definitely not women of integrity. They deserve no credit and The View is nothing but a tabloid gossip show that denigrates women and portrays them as gossipy busy bodies who talk about others behind their back.
