Trump to Rosie: Babwa Called You a "Pig"

trump's letter to rosieDonald Trump says that Barbara Walters called Rosie O'Donnell a "pig" in a phone conversation and that "she won't be [at "The View"] for long."

Trump sent a letter to Rosie O'Donnell this morning alleging that he and Babwa had a conversation about the Trump-Rosie hostilities while Babwa was on vacation. Trump says that, according to Walters, "working with [Rosie] is like living in hell" and, "Don't worry, she won't be here for long." What's more, Trump says that Walters advised him, "Donald, never get into the mud with pigs."

Donald also tells Rosie that she has "good reason to be angry" at Walters, anger that spilled over in a confrontation yesterday on "The View," prompting two items in New York tabloids this morning. A "View" rep tells TMZ, "Barbara refuses to get dragged into this."

The Donald was kind enough to convey his "warmest regards" to Rosie's partner Kelly, to whom he referred to as Rosie's "wife."

33. Frankly, I've always thought Barbara a frightful snob and elitist with no sense of humor. She never forgave poor Gilda Radner for Baba Wawa. Also, I've read here and there that she is not particularly nice.
I suspect that indeed Barbara DID make some such statements to Trump - he is big money and a part of her social circle after all. It seems she's trying to play both sides of the fence and it bit her in the ass - HA! Whatever she feels about Rosie, you can't tell me she's not loving the ratings and increased ad revenue!

In the end, it's Rosie's job to speak on current topics, and she was well within her rights to comment on Trump and the Miss U.S.A. mess. However, she DID take it too far and made it personal. Trump may have gone overboard in response, but it cannot be denied that Rosie DID start the whole mess.

And yes indeed, I'm absolutely sure that this fracas has put the first genuine smile on Star Jones' face in months! Frankly, I can't stand that cow, but you know she's eating this up with a spoon!

34. Donald Trump is a woman hating antisematist. He also only wants to be affiliated with women who make him look good and believe you me she has to be a hell of a woman to get that job done.

35. BARBARA, GET OUT OF THE PIG PEN WITH THESE TWO YOU ARE BETTER THAN THIS. THE VIEW HAS BEEN DISTROYED WITH THIS BIG MOUTH COMEDIAN. SHE IS NOT SHOW HOST MATERIAL. SHE NEEDS TO BE BACK ON STAGE WHERE HER FILTHY MOUTH IS EXCEPTED. NOT WITH AN UPSTANDING PERSON LIKE YOU. CLEAN YOUR ACT UP BEFORE IT TAKES YOU TO THE GUTTER WITH THESE TWO.

36. For Donald to do something this loathsome is ABSURD. I am a NY'r and Love "The Donald" & Rosie,.... Baba is just ok. For The Donald to write this letter he seems to be desperate. He is trying to destroy Rosie IMO and that is why I state LOATHSOME. I feel this is his strongest retaliation and nothing short of SICK. For him to react so vehemently and try to destroy Rosie is SICK. Donald, I have lost all respect for you. I am sorry you really stooped to such a low level, I, as a NY'r expected MORE from you.

They should all take a lesson from our SUBWAY SUPERMAN and GROW UP.

37. Donald Trump is the"fat loser" in this whole mess. For Donald to call Rosie "Fat", a "degenerate", a "loser", and "ugly" is like the pot calling the kettle black. Donald is a jerk-off. He does any for publicity and that's pathetic(like his show) Rosie was just giving her view on the"View". So why doesn't the arrogonant, annoying, sleazing man back the hell off. Donald has bitten off more than he can chew. Rosie will win. He the battle personal and i'm sure shes not going to sit and let him disrespect her anymore. Rosie needs to personally find him and kick his ass. Donald has hurt the plus size community with his childish comments and he hasn't apoligized(what a asshole) Donald has proven no matter how much money you make you can't buy class, maybe he should. Hey Donald i would look you in your fat, pastey, and say "YOUR FIRED" donald is done.

38. Is Donald having some kind of breakdown????? I do believe though he is telling the truth about Baba Wawa, Baba your pushing 80, I'm sure you were just trying to relax the Donald, but who needs this high school shit, retire and write a bio before these assholes give you a stroke

41. My family does not watch (never watched) The View, The Apprentice nor the (now defunct) Rosie O'Donnell show as is obvious. Who wants to see a crooked wig saying "you're fired!" (as seen on previews)?
These are three (3) grown, childish adults who clearly are backstabbing and tattling on each other. Who needs to know individuals like that? They could use their time and effort making the world an even better place and reflect on how fortunate that we (the public) have put them where they are. Fame does not last forever....

42. Trump, Rosie and Barbara Wawa - The good, the bad and the ugly. Your choice!

43. This is ridiculous. Number 1: who cares what either of these idiots thinks? Number 2: Rosie needs to learn to keep her mouth shut. She seems to only know how to attack people with vile statements, yet, when the same is done to her she boohoos and rants about what is being said about her. Both of them need to remember this: "if it wasn't the truth, it wouldn't bother you." I sure wish i could get paid for flippin my lips and trashing people.

45. The best part about this is Star Jones. I was never a fan of Star's - but I did think that Baba WaWa treated her horribly (as did Rosie). Nice to know Karma is still working perfectly -though Baba Wawa and Rosie might not like it!
