War Of Words Erupts Over Miss USA Controversy
NEW YORK -- The Miss USA partying episode has led to a war of words between Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump. O'Donnell told her audience on ABC's "The View" Wednesday that Trump's news conference Tuesday with Miss USA Tara Conner had annoyed her "on a multitude of levels" and called him on his own personal misgivings.
"Left the first wife, had an affair, left the second wife, had an affair. Had kids both times, but he's the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America," O'Donnell said, as the audience erupted in laughter. "Donald, sit and spin, my friend."
Trump, who is the co-owner of the pageant, fiercely responded to O'Donnell's comments in the New York Daily News.
"This woman is totally out of control," Trump told the Daily News. "I'm worth billions of dollars, and I have to listen to this fat slob?"
Trump also knocked O'Donnell's personal appearance on "The View" during her criticism of him.
"When I saw the tape, I said, 'You'd better be careful or I'll send one of my friends over to take your girlfriend!'" Trump told The News. "I imagine it would be pretty easy to take her girlfriend away, considering how Rosie looks."
Trump was also annoyed over O'Donnell calling him a "snake oil salesman" and claimed that he went bankrupt but "didn't have to pay."
"I never went bankrupt, but she said I went bankrupt. So probably I'll sue her because it would be fun," Trump told the syndicated television show "The Insider."
Trump also threatened to sue O'Donnell.
"I'd like to take some money out of her fat-ass pockets," Trump told the show.
Trump also said her talk show didn't get ratings and her magazine was a "total disaster."

Get me a bucket.
hate them both idiots
Been lovin' this story all day. I hope he can take her for all she's worth.
WTFC!
Rosie is a fat slob.
Hate her or not, Trump is off his rocker. And I hate it that he's now referred to as "The Don" or "The Donald". What a bunch of damned nonsense. Go to hell Don, and make sure you have Rosie by the hand when you do.
Who cares? I'm sick of listening to this and I can't turn a news program on where it's not being discussed.
I hope he sues her, the lawyers on both sides will make a fortune from both these "deep pockets".
So Rosie is okay with Miss America acting like a druggie, drunken, slut?
Young girls already have that kind of role model -- Britney Spears. And probably because the high standards of society have slipped away. Thank you MSM.
*She's a slob
*How would you like to kiss that every night?
*I'll probably sue her, it will be fun
*I'd like to take some money out of her fat ass pocket
Hysterical!
Okay.
But take note, fat-ass, these are women...you know, as in a male-female relationship, as opposed to your female-female relationship?
Not to condone Trumps actions, but I don't think a fat-ass lesbian hypocrite has a lot of credibility when it comes to intimate relationships.
I completely agree with Trump...she is a fat slob.
Oh, yeah, one other thing. Who ever said that Donald Trump was the moral compass for 20 year old kids in America?
Or are you just irritated that you don't occupy that position?
Gad, that broad is nasty!
LOL! I think Rosie would choke to death on Trumps ego before she got to eating anything else. Although, you have a point, if Trump lost his ego he would also die.
Trump calls water wet and liquid!
Trump brings coals to Newcastle!
Trump declares...
GO TRUMP GO!!!
You don't find Rosie attractive? Shame on you. She is an all-American girl. NOT
And she has a nice personality.
Titanic Ego vs Titanic Stupidity.
Admittedly, Rosie does push the limits on the average household scale...
Maybe she can blame it on the gene pool...
What excuse does the Donald have for the hair?????
Anyone "photoshoping" Donald as a bald-guy????
As far as Trump? I like what the old horndog said about Rosie. It's good to see a guy say something about some *itch and not care. Speaking of horndogs, hey Donald! Your daughter is hot..!
Ever see her performance on "Riding the bus with my Sister"?

That tells you all you need to know about Trump.
"Taking money out of her big fat ass will be fun!"
"You punch a bully between the eyes and he goes dowwn"
"I don't think she has any talent"
"She's not smart. I know smart people and she's not smart"
Lol Donald said today that Rosie was probably jealous that the girl liked him more than Rosie. Two pointsfor the Don http://sacredscoop.com
wow! this is like watching a football game between Iran and Syria...
Will I puke if I watch it? Be nice; it's almost Christmas and we are on the same side.
OH this should be good --- Huge oversized Ego versus Huge oversized Ass.
Why you hatin' on Trump? At least he made his money the old-fashioned way. He didn't get on his knees for Hollywood execs like Rosie probably did.
Well, I don't think you can understand the depths of her idiocy without it... She basically stereotyopes handicapped people, in a lame attempt to be a "gifted celebrity" doing a touching performance, like in Awakenings, rainman, etc...
Rules are the same and the swim suit section is mandatory. Since Rosie and Donny-boy seem to be so interested they would be the only contestants.
Personally, I would love to see both of them make asses out of themselves while pretending to be normal 20 somethings. Then again, they both seem to make asses out of themselves everytime they speak......
LOL! You sure that pic is the ass end?
well if anything ... he's a good judge of character
Really! And you would be wondering who the pubic hairs belonged to.
I have no beef that Rosie dislikes what Tara Conner did or didn't do Tara should do the right thing and resign
Trump has an asset in his trademark he partly owns and wants to protect and doesn't give a shit about being moral light bearer for twenty somethings
"My perfect scenario would be that Rosie eats Trump, and chokes to death in the process."
It gets no better then that.
She is ugly inside and out.
LOL!!!
What excuse does Rosie have for the pesonallity she has? It is beyond me how anyone could live in the same trailer park as her?
We all know there are mostly elements of the ridiculous in this 'feud.'
However, Trump is willing to play by Rosie's down-n-dirty rules and about time. Rosie loves to take the average celebrity's carefully-worded PR blurbs and ridicule the blurb and the celebrity for failing to come the point. Trump is sugarcoating nothing - he's making fun of Rosie's appearance, weight, lesbianism, and trophy-children faux parenthood - in short, he's covering all the bases that Rosie might retreat to and attempt to say "see, I'm not so bad." He's also making Rosie's co-workers and her bosses justifiably nervous by pointing out the anti-Midas touch that Rosie brings to any project.
If he gets any publicity I'm not bothered - he already saturates the airwaves with the willing help of NBC et al.
On a semi-related note, 'The View' is ostensibly created by women, for women. Why, then, are such shows always dominated/hijacked by loud, obnoxious, unfunny hacks? Can anyone not currently living in Manhattan envision living next to, or even near, a Rosie O'Donnell or Joy Behar? Politics/religion aside, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is as close to normal as one can get on network TV, yet she is ridiculed on-air and in print for being normal.
"It gets no better then that."
How about a cage match? Trump would probably set it up.
Misdeeds
Also, I couldn't figure out where Rosie got the order of things on Trump's wives ... left 1st wife, had an affair.
What's wrong with that? When you're single, you have affairs.
I believe she meant the truth. Had an affair, left 1st wife. Married again. Had an affair, left 2nd wife. That's more like it.
I'm still trying to guess why he is suing. Defamation? Slander?
That is extremely difficult when the subject is "celebrity gossip".
Surely he knows this, which makes me think that it's all an act and they're not really mad at each other.
"Elisabeth Hasselbeck is as close to normal as one can get on network TV, yet she is ridiculed on-air and in print for being normal."
She is also a conservative.
First off, none of you heard Rosie put it into context so allow me:
Ching chang, ching chang chang, ching chang, combover, change, bankrupt, moral compass, chang chang ching.
