I think Trump made a HUGE mistake bringing up Rosie at this time.

I just viewed the segment on The View that was supposed to have been what set him off against Rosie. Calling attention to Rosie will cause a lot of people to look up that segment as I did.

It is devastating to Trump. So.... proceed Mr. Trump.

Bringing up Rosie O'Donnell was completely unnecessary. It was ugly and revealing. He holds grudges for a long, long time, and he has a very fragile ego.

Rosie is popular. She has tons of fans. I love Rosie. His comments were off-topic, and will only appeal to his core base of haters and rejects. Everyone else will be left scratching their heads.

Why would he expose his decades-long hatred for a popular comedian at a presidential debate??

But here goes: It was 9 years ago, I think, but the timeline seems right if it was indeed a long-standing feud between her and TrumpleThinSkin.
