Exclusive: Donald Trump Behind Closed Doors


Only “Extra” was inside Donald Trump’s $25 million Palm Beach estate, Mar-A-Lago, as our Tanika Ray sat down for a one-on-one chat with the always fired up Trump.

“Was I too rough on a certain slob I was criticizing?” Trump asked, half jokingly, as we kicked off our interview.

However, Trump is moving on from his now infamous feud with Rosie O’Donnell, and he dished about everything from Miss USA to his private daddy time with Baby Baron.

“I hold him, I kiss him, but do people really want to hear this?” Trump said.

Trump even opened up about his surprising friendship with Justin Timberlake, whom he sat with at this year’s Golden Globes.

“Justin is such a nice guy, and he’s a good golfer by the way,” The Donald added.

But in the true test of a loyal fan, does “The Apprentice” master listen to JT’s music?

“I do! I think it’s great,” he admitted.

Once we found out Trump knows how to sing “SexyBack,” Tanika asked him a few questions to get some insight into the world of Trump.

Tanika Ray: Barack (Obama) or Hillary (Clinton)?

Donald Trump: Well, I’m a big fan of Hillary; she’s a friend of mine and she’s terrific.

TR: Are you going to sell Trump property to the Beckhams?

DT: I think he's a terrific guy and the property I have in Los Angeles are mansions that are being built in Palos Verdes over the ocean, so if they want one I hope he calls.

TR: Have you been watching “American Idol”? You don’t think Simon is too mean?

DT: Simon’s a friend of mine. No, everyone loves it. And a lot of those kids go on, and they know they’re not going to do anything. Some of them may have serious problems, but that’s their problem, too.

TR: What’s the plan for the future of “The Apprentice”?

DT: NBC would like me to do a show, just the boardroom, where somebody comes into a boardroom and you just rant and rave like a lunatic for an hour.

It is a shame that Donald responded in the first place, so badly to Rosie. If he could have taken it in the way everyone expected, he would not have lost so much respect. Rosie is a comedian after all. Joan Rivers thinks she is, and she is far ruder, to everyone, much more than Rosie ever has been.

Did you see Joan Rivers on the award show, speak so disrespectfully about Anna Nicole? She thought she was being very clever, but she is just crass! Now Donald, there is a horrid lady for you to attack!

But, the main thing is a man of his position should not have felt that insulting Rosie, especially about the way she looks or her wieight, was intelligent. And, if Rosie was having a joke about the Donald’s hair, so what? He has got funny hair and he knows it too! But, I wonder if Mr Trump does as much for charities as Rosie does? Me thinks not!

Donald Trump was upset, but he should not have said anything about her weight.

I think Rosie is uncouth, and I don’t understand why Barbara Walters hired her. I stopped watching the show since Rosie arrived, because I don’t think the show has class anymore.

I don’t think queer actors or celebs should be given any voice or opinion on any matter. They are sick mentally & brain dead. If they need to express there opinion let them do it in a mental institution for sick, sick people. This is for all queers not only rosie and ellen or queer folks

DONALD TRUMP IS SUPPOSE TO BE PROFESSIONAL. ALL BECAUSE A COMMENT WAS MADE ABOUT HIM THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE TURNED INTO A MESS AND A YELLING MATCH. HE WAS HORRIBLE AND 100% WRONG YOU DON’T YELL AND SCREAM A TALK BAD ABOUT SOMEONE THE WAY HE DID FOR SOMETHING SO SILLY. HE ACTED LIKE A CHILD AND HE SHOULD TELL ROSIE HE IS SORRY, BUT HE HAS SUCH A BIG EGO SO IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. I USE TO WATCH HIS SHOW AND NOW I LOST ALL RESPECT FOR HIM AS A PERSON TO ACT IN SUCH A DISGUSTING WAY!!!!!!!
