Trump Blasts Newly Canceled Rosie

The Donald adds insult to the injury of O'Donnell's bad news

By Kenny Herzog Mar 19, 2012 9:25AM
For all the talk about boycotting Rush Limbaugh, there's another conservative bully on the air who operates with a mean streak. Donald Trump may not be labeling politically active students as promiscuous, but he sure has choice words when it comes to longtime adversary Rosie O'Donnell.
 
The real estate mogul and "Celebrity Apprentice" host called in to morning-news show "FOX and Friends" earlier Monday morning and discussed the cancellation of O'Donnell's OWN network chat-fest,"The Rosie Show." He didn't exactly offer consolation, telling the program that "Rosie fails at everything" and that he "knew it immediately when they announced it," citing that "she had a variety show" and "it failed."


But Donald's not totally heartless, expressing confidence that, "Some moron will come and hire her again to do something else and that will fail." However, he suggests that, "At some point, let her rest. Let her go away."
 
 
Whatever your opinion on Rosie (and ultimately, none of us really knows the woman behind closed doors), it's hard to find purpose behind Trump's harsh, public belittling, other than creating buzz that'll drive attention to "Apprentice." One might even call his behavior cowardly. And no matter how many times Rosie gets knocked down, she's always at least nothing short of fearless.
 
"The Rosie Show" airs weeknights at 7 p.m. ET/PT on OWN.

Why is it Trumps business if Rosie's show is cancled anyways?  I don't know how his show has lasted this long, it's the most boring show I've ever watched for fifteen minutes.  His shows are about old actor's or famous people who have gotten themselves into trouble in the past trying to get famous again.  Why was he able to go bankcrupt three times when he has all that money he could pay back his debt.  There are people out there struggling to pay their bills so they won't go bankcrupt when you have this creep show with all that money getting away with it.  I haven't watched Rosie's new show only because I don't watch own.  I  forget that I have it actually. I don't like Trump at all, he is a big show off walks around like he runs the world, and thank God he never ran for president. He should just shut his trap about Rosie, and let it go.  Because she never backed down from him like all the other scarey cats do he won't let up on her.  Mr. Trump did you ever hear of the Bosley center for hair.  Go have it done, then go bankcrupt again so you won't have to pay for it.

Trump either beat smaller kids up, or got beat up himself a lot in school.  A true coward.

Never watched Rosie's show but it wasn't because I dislike her.  Just no time! But Trump?   Someone needs to punch that overstuffed turkey in the face so that his mouth is wired shut.  Nasty, self-important blowhard.  Egotistical, narcissistic prick.  He would walk onto the elevator at Trump Tower and situate himself in the center of the elevator car so that he could SEE HIMSELF from all angles in the polished brass.  Trust me.  Not much to look at.  One of the uglies people on this earth.  Inside and out.

Donald Trump is an idiot of the first order.  I can't watch any of his shows because his arrogance is sickening.   Why NBC continues to carry this bag of air is beyond me.

Amazing. Another one-sided article by MSN.  Why are you not talking about Bill Maher calling Palin and Bachman sluts?  Or David Letterman? Oh yeah, because they are liberal Obama zombies and that is what your network does.

no different than the liberal bullies who shout down those who disagree with them; besides, Rosie is one of the most mean-spirited talk hosts or comedians on TV; thank goodness OWN is pulling her show; time to shut up, Rosie

Yeah, Rosie O. really has no talent whatsoever, those Emmy awards she and her show won never really happened, I guess.  It's not like facts ever get in the way of hate, right?  On the other hand, Trump has filed for bankruptcy, what 3 times?  And, how many other projects has he been associated with that went belly up?  This guy has some nerve, his arrogance is off the charts, and, he has no class whatsoever.

I have to say that I am shocked by alot of posters comments.  The ones I am having the hardest time with relate to appearances, ie: fat, fred flintstones mama,eye candy...etc.. People? 

I personally am NOT a fan of either Rosie, or Donald.  I simply generally don't tune them in.  I can't see bashing on appearance, I find that so childish.

Rosie has her talents, and I guess Mr. Trump his.  Accept just that.

 

IF Donald truly had anything to do with getting Rosie's show cancelled, then, that goes beyond discusting.  He may have alot of power, due to his money, but, that shows down right intended ABUSE.

 

This woman has herself, and her family to support.  Leave her alone.  If you don't like her, walk away.  Same with Mr. Got Rocks.  Grow up.

This woman continues to be hired, she has been arrogant, rude and ungrateful over the years.

Why Oprah would give this woman such an amazing opportunity is beyond me.

Can't say Donald Trump didn't warn everyone!

Hopefully this is the last TV show she will try to destroy!

I would love to see her show replaced with a conservative show, but Oprah, being another Dumicrat and big contributor to Obama, would never allow a balanced and truthful show on her network.

I'm not a fan of either but it just because she's a Liberal and I use that term lightly because Republicans thinks that anyone who has an opinion are Liberals.  Donald Trump is a douche who really cares what he thinks.  If anyone agrees with Donald Trump you are pathetic. Do any of you think he gives any crap about you. To him you are the little people who made him rich..... PS I am not a Liberal!

I'm growing tired of this VERY wealthy old man behaving like a child.....GROW UP!!!  I don't care for either of them, however, I am sick of hearing from one about the other.  You are both wealthy, successful people who have made their mark on the world for good, bad or whatever, be happy and MOVE ON!  And, yes, I'm aware she has said nothing at this moment but it's probably coming.

These two have been feuding for years. What did you expect him to say?

 

What I find objectionable is your mock surprise and indignation.

Obama associates himself around people like Holder, Maher, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell.....ALL worthless to society.

Wow MSNBC, "conservative bully" is a bit much. How come you do not call out the liberal bullies like Bill Mahar, Rachel Maddow, Michael Moore or Rosie herself?

How you can continue to call yourselves reporters with left-leaning nonsense like this is ridiculous. Trump is entitled to his opinion and Rosie is an adult, she can take it.
