Everything Doesn't Come Up Roses

Is it just me or are Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump the lamest people alive? Their childish tiff has made headlines and even become the source of a Gallop poll in USA Today. That’s what it has come to kids. Rosie shoots off her mouth, which isn’t unusual for her since she left her TV show and decided to embrace her sexuality publicly. I’m just surprised that he is so indignant about the attack.

What’s worse it the best he can come up with after being called a ‘snake oil salesman’ and ‘comb-over bunny’ (which is really funny by the way) is to call her a fat slob and degenerate. That’s it. You’re one of the great minds in American business and the best way you can express yourself after being attacked by a host of a morning show is to call her fat. FAT. I’m shocked at his limited vocabulary and imagination.

I would have at least called her an opportunistic windbag who loves to stir up controversy to advance her profile. I don’t know that I believe that or it’s 100% true but it’s better than FAT. Use your adult big boy words. I’m surprised he’s even bothered to join her public battle of the wits or in this case the witless. Why would such a public figure become so bothered by an inane comment? I figure either he’s extremely bored, has an acute case of PMS or feels like this is a battle he can win. Would he be this outraged and responsive if Bill Gates or Oprah Winfrey made the comments? Probably not.

Notice how I haven’t said much about Rosie. I don’t expect much from her. She’s a fun kooky character that has misplaced the filter that edits what floats around your brain and then comes out your mouth. Situations like this are unfortunate for the onlookers. If you have to be subjected to mud slinging let it at least be clever and malicious not juvenile and mundane. I have to side with Rosie on this. She had no business making the personal attack on the Donald but there was some thought and levity on her part. I’m Team Rosie all the way.

Who are you? Team Rosie or Team Trump?
