Trump -- "Disgusting" Rosie's Exit a "Great Service"

Posted May 25th 2007 4:15PM by TMZ Staff

His Comboverness, Donald Trump, just couldn't resist taking one more swinging kick at Rosie O'Donnell on her way out the door of ABC, saying, "A great service was done by getting her off the airwaves ... she's a disaster."

The billionaire blowhard offered his pointed barbs to MSNBC this afternoon, just minutes after Rosie announced her departure ... and they were like a greatest hits compilation of Trump's Ro disses. "She's not a very smart person," check. "She's disgusting to look at," check. "She's aggressive," check. Of course, he had to get in a dig at Elisabeth Hasselbeck, calling her a "dimwit." Trump is against the Iraq war.

Donald, whose own show, "The Apprentice," just got axed by NBC, predicted that "The View's" ratings would rise in the wake of Ro's farewell, but declared that "The View" had become an "embarrassment" to Barbara Walters.

61. Q) How can you tell when when Donald Trump is talking?
A) The wind picks up (due to all the hot air) and everyone's IQ drops 20 points...

65. Donald: Isn't it about time you traded Melania in for a newer model?

She's got a (gasp!) wrinkle.

66. Donald you need Rosie, she doesn't need you. Why were you on TV today
and so many other days in the past?...hmmm... I think that would be because
of Rosie. You keep using Rosie to keep yourself in the media...how patheic.

BTW, Donald...YOU'RE FIRED!!!

67. So Sally I am not quite sure I get it. Are you making fun of elisabeth, cause i think the whole thing is juvenile. I pay attention cause it makes my day and makes me laugh and doesnt cost me a dime. I am not giving any money to any of these celebs for entertaining me. cant do any better then that.

69. Umm, excuse me Mr. Trump, you were "fired", she quit. Big difference.

70. I wonder what it means when Barbara Walters said. quote - "I am most appreciative that our close and affectionate relationship will not change." Am I reading too much into the "close and affectionate relationship?" Can anyone in their wildest immagination wonder what Rosie looks like naked? I agree with Donald, she's a fat, ugly, opinionate non-patriot who cringes when anyone mentions the normal way to conceive a child. With her money she goes out and buys one. What a psyco.

71. Wow...as if anything he has to say matters. A grown 60 yr old man who name calls...so ridiculous. Rosie was the best thing to happen to the view...people watched it and even though you might not agree with Rosie she added some oomph to the usually dismal boring show. It always strikes me as childish by using a woman's appearance as a way to slam her but not use the same tactic when talking about another man.

Not going to watch the View anymore and I already gave up The Apprentice when this man who is supposed to be looked up to and be someone's mentor resorted to namecalling instead of acting like an adult.

72. How can anyone honestly belive Rosie quit? Bet you believe Starr quit too!

73. Donald Trump is a WOMAN BASHER!!! Let's see there's Martha Stewart,
Babawawa, Rosie and Elisabeth...all female.

Can anyone name any MALE that he has gone after in the media so maliciously?

74. Rosie,
I think you are your own person and what you say is what you feel in your heart.More people
should voice their own voice and speak their own thoughts without being slammed and
called bad names. Hey you are a great person and you do alot for other people that your
not credited for.

75. I'm sorry to see that Rosie is leaving early, but I think she's only thinking of Elisabeth. It's really not a good thing for Elisabeth to get worked up like that in her condition for the next 3 weeks.

Way to go Rosie for taking the high road!
