Rosie O'Donnell responds, calls Trump "an orange anus" on Twitter


(She also had a great line..."Tell the truth and shame the Donald"!)

..."It also included a link to a 5-minute clip from “The View,” which she co-hosted. According to O’Donnell, this clip is the origin of the bad blood between her and Trump.

The video, which aired in 2006, showed the women of “The View” discussing a news conference by Trump in which he announced that Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner could retain her crown after being criticized for publicly partying.
.....

“He annoys me on a multitude of levels,” O’Donnell said. “He’s the moral authority? Left the first wife, had an affair. Left the second wife, had an affair. Had kids both times, but he’s the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America.”

.....In the clip, she continued — discussing the money given to him by his father and Trump’s several bankruptcies.
“You know what saved him the second time [he declared bankruptcy]?” she asked. “After his father died, with that money, he paid off all his bankruptcy. This is not a self-made man.”
Added O’Donnell, “I don’t know. I just think this man is one of those snake oil salesmen in ‘Little House on the Prairie.'”

Since then, Trump has attacked O’Donnell mercilessly and without an end in sight — “I’ve known Rosie for a long time. I’ve always felt to myself like she’s a degenerate,” he once told David Letterman on “The Late Show.”".....
