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."
It's the network battle of the "Who cares, they're has-beens?"
I'm with you. I hope Trump shreds her. She's a pig in every sense. She is not funny. She comes off as any angry woman.
Oh yea... She has a face..I did not notice.
Did anybody notice that when she was on Rosie she acted like she was so much in love with Tom Cruise,then when she left her tv show she came out of the closet. Ever since then she has been nothing but a hateful,mean proud homosexual!
Wow, you're right she did used to swoon over Cruise. Hmmmm ...
both annoy me to no end - but hey - trump hates her too - so Im in his corner
Well, I *was* in The Combover's camp -- that is, until he got on his kick about how people should be discussing the "lies" that got us into Iraq, yadayadayada.
They're BOTH liberal losers!
I wasn't sure I agreed with Trump giving Miss USA a "second chance", since she clearly violated the rules of her contract, but he owns "Miss Universe", so if he wants to keep someone on, that's his choice.
HOWEVER, he has now set a precedent, and it will become much harder to enforce the rules. Subsequent rule-breakers will point to his treatment of Tara Conner (sp?), and my guess is that the lawsuits will be forthcoming if his treatment of others is different. I will be interested to see what happens with Miss Nevada's case, now that she has been "fired".
"America -- The Freak Act"
I love Elisabeth. I'd like to see her host her own show. That will never happen on network TV, but hey, I'm just sayin'...
She is uglier inside than out. What a sad existence, always being bitter and angry at everyone else.
I agree! This ''woman'' is pure slime. I don't know what her problem is, I just can see that she is an angry, bitter woman, that needs to stay off television. I am so tired of the hate filled venom , she is allowed to spew day after day ,that the MSM gives her a pass on. I'm glad that TRUMP is giving it back to the witch!
Yeah, I don't agree with him giving her a "2nd chance" NOW that I've seen how she acted when she got it.
Before that, I thought, "well, I've sure needed a 2nd chance myself lately, so I pretty much ought to agree with the decision, spiritually" - then I saw what a fake-out queen she is and wanted to barf.
I just so don't care about any of this, but it's popcorn-worthy, I suppose! Merry Christmas to us all!
Trupsie? Pronounced with a long U.

Donald O'Donnell?
I think you left out a ching
They're both freaks.
But after they're done barking at each other ........ can you imagine some real ugly "make-up sex" at the end of this melodrama? LOL
****
I've never seen anyone behave like Trump in recent years---totally politically incorrect. Nobody calls people FAT on tv anymore. Rosie will be traumatized after he's finished with her.
