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."

91. #32tvismysnack - I agree!. This is getting better than any reality show because it is REAL! Those who think they are doing this for publicity are so wrong imo. They are not that good actors! I believe Donald. I really almost felt sorry for Barbara yesterday; she did not look too well. It really is a shame that Rosie has to viciously bite the hand that feeds her but at least everyone now sees her true colors. Her behavior makes me wonder if she isn't purposely trying to get fired. She probably just can't quit because of her contract and I read that she and BW both have the same publicist which seems kind of strange to me.

93. Barbara Walters was behind ABC getting rid of Star Jones now she has this Loud mouth ,Uncouth Fat-Ass Rosie who is not only being childish but downrigt stupid.
These people involved in this pettiness are like a bunch of pissed off ,overpaid ingrates. The world has better and more important issues. Stop reporting this Non-sense on a daily basis. The whole damn show "The View should be off the Air. Afterall Rosie couldn't run her magazine, so what maes Barbara Walters think she will do better for this show. Barbara Walters needs to retire her Old-self.

94. Well, first of all..."The View" is a show where everyone NOT JUST ROSIE, expresses opinions on hot topics and celebrity news. No big deal, day in and day out that is what the show has been about from the beginning. All four women express whatever the hell they feel like whether we all agree with them or not, what Rosie said was not a big deal and DT went off the deep end and is acting like a 4 year old. Now he has tarnished BW reputation and has taken the focus off of the fact that HE is the problem to begin with. Don't tell me he hasn't heard the COMBOVER joke for years now. He is sitting back and enjoying the trouble he has brought on....so ladiesd...Get it together stop fighting one another and start focusing on teaming up on The Donald! He has lost the ratings war and is now trying to gain something back for his own show

95. This is ridiculous. Donald is a pathetic publicity hog. The Apprentice tanked in the ratings, and he is DESPERATE to keep this going. Rosie and Barbara need to IGNORE HIM and stop mentioning him on the show. He is like a 2-year-old having a tantrum...eventually he will scream himself out and stop. In the meantime, I am boycotting all things Trump. He is a sleazeball trying to squeeze as much attention as he can out of this feud. WHAT A LOSER!

96. As stated many times before, Rosie is a comedian, The View is called "The View" for a reason! I always liked Rosie and I swear, shes damned if she speaks up and damned if she dosn't. When she says something political, the people over at Fox say, "Rosies at it AGAIN" Just because she speaks her oppinions!! But they over at Fox can speak sh*t of anyone they want and it's just FINE!!! When Rosie is tame and talks about her kids, viewers say she's boring. When she did the 'Hair thingy' and puckered her lips like that freak Donald, listen to the audience!! SHE WAS FUNNY!!! And, then she goes on vacation and never says anything, BUT everyone is saying she should keep her mouth shut. I don't get it!! Watch 'The Apprentice'. You won't see a fat or older person on that show, you tell me that this Trump Ass is a decent human being!! AND that RIGHT WING FOX better look twice at who they support ( THE DONald) because he's all down on their precious BUSH!!! He's against the war that they over at FOX think more of our poor guys should go over to get killed and he thinks Bush is a liar!!

97. I am neither a Donald Trump, Rosie O'Donnell or Barbara Walters fan, but...in all fairness, Rosie started it. Rosie needs to keep her mouth shut. Barbara Walters needs to retire, and before it is all over with, Rosie will end up getting what she deserves. I never was a fan of The View but did watch it occasionally. Now that Rosie is on I don't watch it at all. I can find better ways to waste my time.

98. Well, Donald Trump just told the entire world including all his business associates that he is a backstabber to his "so called friends" and can't be trusted by anyone. This man is human garbage and to think he has children that are witnessing this is beyond sick. I have nothing else to say, this is beyond grotesque what he has done.

99. Wow! I'm really depressed about all of you folks who are thrilled by some
celebrity spats.

There's a real world out there, people. Why are you so wrapped up with
"who-said-what-to-whom" in the world of entertainment?

What really concerns me is that some of you may vote.

Try reading a book or a newspaper.

This crap reflects badly on you, and the country as a whole.

OK, I'm outta here, and won't be back for a very long time (if ever).

100. Money cant buy class. OR loyalty. OR trust. This man just did himself in all by himself. You are nothing but garbage DT. and now the entire world knows it.

101. Back to Jr. High School, anyone? Sounds like two 13 yr. olds fighting at recess. All I have to say is "GROW UP and move on." I think they've each met their match in maturity levels. Hey, they could get married!

102. He's a jerk, but I agree..she is a very angry and icky person

103. This may very well be a publicity stunt...however, Rosie is biting off a bit more than
she can chew now and digging herself deeper, Barbara is losing respectability (faster now, after the Star Jones incident), and Trump, well, he's not gonna be losin' nothin'. He's still the same as far as morals go, and I do believe him when he says Barbara lied. There's not much she or anyone can do to the "Trump" other than hurt his "feelings". Also, the View should just go ahead and have it's last show. It will never be the same again. I agree with others that Barbara should retire and Rosie needs to let some air out of her head. Rosie can be an okay person otherwise. It will be interesting to see what the next "mess" she's going to get into next...ha!

104. Donald has got a lot to learn from this. All the money in the world cannot teach someoone to keep their mouth shut. Keep poor Barbara Walters out of this. Donald is acting like a bitter old queen all because someone made fun of his hair. The value of the name Trump is weakening by the minute because people are realizing there is no class associated with it.

105. These 3 clowns are out of control. They all need to be spanked and put in the timeout corner until they learn how to behave like adults.
