the American Kraken!! EPA/STR UK AND IRELAND OUT
"Today" host Meredith Vieira got a double dose of "the Donald" and his daughter, Ivanka, over her mention of the Rosie brouhaha in lieu of expected "Apprentice" questions.
Donald Trump unleashed a verbal smackdown on the "Today" show this morning at host Meredith Vieira.
Booked to promote "The Apprentice," Trump took issue after Vieira immediately brought up the Rosie feud.
Trump blasted, "Here we are talking about 'The Apprentice' and you don't want to about 'The Apprentice,' you want to talk about Rosie, and you shouldn't mention them in the same breath."
Daughter Ivanka chimed in, saying Rosie had initiated the slurs and had been bullying people for years.
Vieira tried in vain to defend her questioning, blaming him for, "fueling the fire."
TMZ.com has the entire video of the heated exchange online.

About time someone took on The Donald. I'm sick of hearing his smarmy tones. I don't care how much money the man has, it doesn't make him any better of a person. Rosie may be obnoxious, but Trump is arrogant. He acts as if no one has a right to make any comments about him, because he's SOMEBODY special. Well, he's special all right. He's a middle-aged man with a taste for trophy wives, a really high opinion of his own infallibility, and a ridiculously bad haircut! Get over it, Trumpster. And get a better hairdresser.
Go for it Donald, Rosie is a pig, with an ignorant mouth. Telling people to let their dogs lick a babies hinney (bumb) to get rid of diaper rash, oh and by the way not the only ignorant thing out of her mouth. total turn off, The views ratings might be up , but it is because of the ignorance of Rosie, and waiting to see what next ignorant remark she may make. What a sad situation to replace Star Jones with a stupid uneducated woman like Rosie. Barbara you must be slipping somewhere or you would have chosen better.
The Donald has slipped so low, he must be crawling on his belly. How can anyone take this egotistical idiot seriously??????????
Are they still at it? The whole thing is very tiresome.
OMG it's not even worth commenting about anymore. Donald is LOW!!. All Rosie did was mimick his hairstyle & his 'Miss USA Press Coverage' comments. Geeesh Donald give it a rest! IT'S OVER! Trump is 60 years old. He's way way too old to be acting this juvenille. He's acting like he's in grade school.......and that's an insult to grade schoolers! So Donald don't blast Merideth for being asked questions about the Rosie feud........when you keep popping up on every Entertainment show that exists, including your buddy Larry King's CNN Larry King Live show! Enough already. Quit acting like a baby & a jerk, and start acting like a the respectable father & a husband!!
Donald Trump makes low class look good. Rosie might have 'started it' as Ivanka said, but he took his tirade to a new low. I don't think anyone could imagine another person of his so-called status reacting the way he has. And now spouting off at Meredith Viera.........will he never quit!!!! The best thing everyone could do is boycot his ridiculous show.......he needs to be FIRED!!!
Rosie is extremely low class.
Thought that Trump handled himself well. We think he was a gentleman on the show whereby Meredith kept on badgering him and badgering him and badgering him. Rosie didn't have to bring up the issue at all. It certainly wasn't necessary. Really, what did she accomplish bad mouthing him as well as other people????????She is so loud, fat, unprofessional, and a negative to The View. She overpowers all of them. Next time maybe she will try harder and not open that big mouth of hers. Let her stick to being an Avis....
You all know that all Rosie did was make fun of Donald's hair like we all have done for years. Everyone thinks he is full of himself and a womanizer too. He is just upset because he knows that she said on national TV what everyone else thinks or has said before about him. And by the way, if you want to see a bad TV show, watch his.
shes a fat no talent cow.
and he is laughed at by the serious financial world
they are both jokes, OJ should meet them
Who cares about those two. When is Cher going to put out a new CD. She is missed. :)
Rosie's comments regarding Donald giving Tara Conners a second chance could be overlooked. Agree with her or not, she was merely stating her opinion. However, she was the one who started the personal attacks, not him. In some cases, the only way to shut people up is to give them a taste of their own medicine. Her comments were out of line plain and simple. So he has bad hair, does she think everyone doesn't know that already? The way I look at it, don't dish it out if your not ready to take it when they dish it back to you.
Rosie wasn't especially mean spirited in making fun of the Donald's hair - everyone does it, and he did have business bankrupts. What he said in retaliation was so low class!!!! If he was as smart as he thinks he is, he could have responded in an intelligent way, making himself look like the good guy instead of a first class jerk - but regardless of how much money someone has, sometimes you can't make a purse out of a sow's ear!!!!!
Granted Rosie threw the first punch, and it is perfectly understandable that the Donald wanted to respond (although he could have taken the 'high road and let it go), but couldn't he have used some intelligence in doing so instead of showing himself to be the low-class creep????????
Donald Trump is an insult to the human race. Meredith is just another woman he had a tirade on. His comments about Rosie should insult all of the human race. He is hateful. He treated Meredith how he believes all women with opinions should be treated. His ideal woman would be like his daughter, a pretty woman who sits by his side and agrees with everything he says. Someone who has no opinions except the ones he has. I saw him on Larry King and can I just say HOMOPHOBE. He is spewing hate. He is a hateful person. He hates everyone who is not like him or does not agree with him... hmmm.. very Hitler like.
If a man would of said those same things about Donald Trump this all would of ended the same day it started! You don't see Doanld Trump calling up entertainment tonight, every time Leno or Letterman does a joke about him! Yes Rosie is a talk show host, but lets not forget that she is a comedian first, she was trying to get a laugh when she said those things about Trump, which she did, a huge laugh! People laughed cause they saw the truth in what she was saying, he on the other hand went out to find a camera crew, and say horrible mean things for revenge. In my book, two totally different things. I mean come on, should Donald Trump really be the moral compass of 20 year olds in America?? Rosie called him out relationships, and he proved her right, as soon as she opened up his loud mouth, saying he was going to break Rosie and Kelly up, (who are in a committed relationship) by sending on of his good looking friends after Kelly. Donald doesn't understand when you have 4 kids and are married, that just becuase someone prettier comes by you don't dump your spouse and run after the new piece of ass.
Rosie didn't 'start' anything. She did what comedians do: commentary. Trump has pushed himself into the spotlight over and over for years, desperatly trying to stay a contemporary celebrity no matter how old and ugly he gets. Does anyone get mad at Leno or Letterman for making fun of them? Maybe. But they don't lose their minds over it the way The Combover does. If Trump can't take the heat of being in the limelight and being criticized, he should retire completely from view. But none of us will ever be that lucky.
Trump is the ultimate hypocrite, and that was O'Donnell's point. And the punchline in her joke is that The Combovers incendiary reactions have proven exactly what her point was. He's no ones moral compass. He's a guy who inherited his fathers money, and then had to declare several bankruptcies because the reality is he doesn't know squat about business. He isn't rich anymore, except what he makes being a celebrity and most true 'power players' in business can't stand the guy. He'll never be in their league. You don't see Bill Gates acting like that do you?
Rosie O'Donnell is a great candidate for the NYPD. (Narcissistic. Youth. Personality. Disorder.)
And Donald Trump has to show his face everywhere. He's everywhere. Tomorrow he will show up in my bathroom. Ewwww. Anyway, I want him to win the feud because Rosie O'Donnell is a mean, selfish, gripe.
I also would like to add that Meredith Vieira is full of fluff. She hosted an idiotic game show, Millionaire. 'Nuff said. At least she's not as bad as K. Couric, who (oh-so-news-like) sighed at every word spoken by Rod Stewart.
