Celebrity Feuds
Trump: "Barbara Cannot Stand Rosie"

This is celebrity mudslinging at its finest!

Donald Trump continued his vicious attack on Rosie O'Donnell on Thursday by calling into local morning show "Good Day L.A.," and proclaiming that Barbara Walters hates Rosie as much as he does!

The Donald fired off a litany of insults, personally attacking the "View" co-host by calling her a "bully," "a loser," "stupid," and even compared her to a "clam."

Some of the Trump lowlights were:

Regarding "The View's" surge in ratings this year: "I bring it up because they talk about me. Ultimately, that show will fail because of Rosie," adding, "Barbara (Walters) made a mistake. She cannot stand Rosie O'Donnell."

On Rosie's intelligence: "She's not very smart. I think Rosie is stupid."

On Rosie's appearance: "If you can look as ugly as she looks ... I give her credit for having succeeding moderately."

On Rosie's sexuality: "I think she's very attracted to Miss USA. She probably wanted to put the crown on her head herself."

On, er, well, you figure it out: "She was like a little clam. A disgusting thought isn't it, when you compare Rosie to a clam?"

TMZ spoke to Walters' rep (who also reps Rosie), who says that Barbara had no comment and added that she is on vacation "in the middle of nowhere."

The blowup, which seems to have been brewing for years, exploded yesterday after Rosie attacked Trump on "The View," chastising him for acting as America's "moral authority" in his public pardon of Miss USA Tara Conner.

After the on-air rant, Rosie told "EXTRA" that Donald really didn't care about Conner's drug addiction, calling the whole thing a publicity stunt. "I just think he's a hot bag of wind," said O'Donnell.

This is war!

406. Go away ROSIE . your whole Out look and personality are ugly. Barbara really goofed on this one . she should have never hired a pig like rosie. If it wasn't Donald Trump it would be Tom Selleck or anyone else that comes to her twisted and sick mind. You either conform to her VEIW or listen to her rant on subjects she knows nothing about.

407. Every plus size person should boycott all Trump casinos and properties.Let him see how disgusting that is.Everything he said about Rosie describes him to a T!He is crude, rude, disgusting and ugly.He is obnoxious and the only reason people put up with him AT ALL is because he is rich!Same goes for marrying or having sex with him.Who names their kid Baron anyway?He is the farthest thing from royalty I have ever seen.

408. I think Donald Trump is doing this to promote Rosie for what ever reason and I think as we all are in ahh over how petty this is and how this can be going on. Donold is having a big laugh on the public behind close doors for falling for this nonsense. Or is Donold realy a big bully. Donold is much to smart for that. You call this entertainment???

409. The sad part in all of this is Barbara Walters. Her once golden hue is now forever tarnished. Rosie yelled at her, swore at her, and not only did she take it, she came back looking like Rosie's bitch, swearing her loyalty to her pimp. Sad, sad, sad.

410. Anyone who is as ugly as Donald Trump has a lot of guts to call anyone else ugly.
And I think "the combover" is a perfect nickname for him....what's with him? Too cheap to get implants? Or even a cheap rug?
Donald Trump has always been a mean spirited, nasty person and I think he has
had what Rosie has said coming to him for a long time.

411. #7---Laura....many people like Rosie for her guts to say what she thinks.
I'm sick of politicially correct, mealy mouth talking heads. She is a real person with real feelings that hasn't been corrupted into thinking a certain way. Isn't that called brain washing? I think everything she has said about Donald Trump has been right on the money. He's sickening! And I would bet millions of Americans feel the same way. I think Rosie is entertaining and refreshingly honest. m
SO now you know...some people do like Rosie.

412. No attractive woman would look twice at Donald Trump without his $$$. If he can fool himself into thinking that it's anything else, then it's amazing he's made the money he has. He's been married to three beautiful women...and now he's a father again--but he could be this one's grandfather. When will men consider that the children they bring into this world when they are as old as he is might grow up without a father at all? Male ego? Of coursr. And nobody has more than Donald.
IF he'd been smart he'd have kept his first marriage together--Ivana was one class act and he could have learned something from her.

413. Donald Trump is an egomanic, and and asshole, and does he every actually laugh and smile? Every photo he looks PISSED off, didn't get his name put on a bldg or something....and Rosie? She is the most irritating I don't want to say pig, but that's how I feel. She is an irritating loud, as opposed to fun loud, rude, her expressions I can't bear to view, poor thing looks like a pissed fish, and her voice, I know NOT HER FAULT, but if my voice sounded like her, I'd whisper. So, they deserve each other!

414. Rosie O'Donnell is a self-appointed guardian of morality, but she forgets that her lifestyle is not what others would think of as moral, so she should keep her mouth shut more often. Oh, but she can't do that, can she?

415. I think people only hate Rosie because she's a 'fat pig'. If this were Paris Hilton making these comments, all her horny followers would have praised her. It's all about looks in this country. It has nothing to do with what Rosie said but what she looks like. Donald is one to talk about looks!

416. Rosie will ultimately be her own downfall. Who does she think she is that she can demoralize anyone elses affilictions, morality, sexuality and the many other comments she makes that make her sound completely ignorant. I do believe in the fifth, but the most bothersome was the comment she made regarding Oprah and Gail. What was that about. Did she have to make that remark. Who does she think she is. Barbara made a huge mistake which she will ultimately regret have to live up to in the future.

417. I watch the "view" daily just because Rosie is on there. I think she is a breath of fresh air because she is brutally honest, I think that is what bugs most people about her. She says what she means, means what she says and doesnt try to come off as something shes not.
Donald Trump says what he wants because its a proven fact that people that belittle others are insecure about themselves. He might have money and the ego of a giant but thats as far as it goes.
Needless to say, I love Rosie for her honesty, granted, she comes out with some doozies but the Views ratings have never been so good. If she wasn't the reason why, they would have reined her in by now.
I hope that shes there for a good long time, she makes me laugh on a daily basis.

As for the personal attacks on appearance. I think the Don is afraid that no one would know him without the comb over. Rosie is a chub, but she doesnt have to be reminded of it, she tells you herself!

As for all you guys that are attacking her because of her size, looks are only skin deep but you are ugly to the bone..
