Rosie Doesn't Take The Donald's Bait

Rosie O'Donnell shot back at Donald Trump this morning on "The View" -- with nothing more than a piggy-ish face.

Fitting, perhaps, since "pig-faced" was just one of the adjectives Trump used to describe Rosie yesterday after their public slapfight exploded. Against expectations, Rosie chose not to get in the ring with the Infamously-Coifed One, making only passing reference to The Donald.

Pointing out the presence of her partner Kelli in the studio audience, Rosie said, "I was afraid to leave her home in case someone with a combover [ahem] came and stole her from me."

And that was that. Meanwhile, Donald vented on "Good Morning L.A." Is Rosie now taking the high road, or has she been silenced? Her rep says she's has no additional comment.

A rep for "The View" provided this comment from Barbara Walters, who is out of the country, to TMZ: "Donald Trump is a personal friend of mine and has been a good friend to 'The View' for many years. I'm sorry there is friction between Donald and Rosie. That said, I do not regret for one moment my choice to hire Rosie O'Donnell as the moderator of 'The View'. I certainly hope and expect that this tempest will pass quickly."

1. Rosie may have been temporarily silenced about Donald Trump but chances are she'll wait a few days and then attack someone else. That is just her style, the way she gets attention, she is not intelligent enough or even well educated to discuss things that matter in the world. She likes to bicker....

2. Rosie has not obviously taken the "HIGH ROAD" because she made that remark about somone with a "COMB-OVER" possibly taken her "wife" Kelly away from her. Rosie is such the hypocrite, she needs to stop acting like she is the moral police, and stop thinking that she is judge and jury of all things in this world. I can't believe I used to be a fan of Rosie's...

3. I thought she wasn't afraid to say what's on her mind? Probably knows her "wife" will leave her if she loses her job. Ass.

11. Oh please! This whole "feud" is nothing but PR for both of them. I can't believe people are taking this serious.

Ratings for "The View" have been up since Rosie joined and Trump would do anything for publicity.

Are y'all that easy to fool?

12. Donald Trump is clearly insane, and he's done this before, if you recall the whole Martha Stewart feud. He's completely narcissistic, and there wasn't much for Rosie to respond to, other than exactly what she did. And she was right about him, he's a hypocrite and a cretin. I'm now a fan of hers.

13. Rosie is such an hypocrit; if Miss USA had been a lesbo, she would have fallen all over about how Donald Trump did the right thing.
