In this battle of wits you can really tell that the women on the View are outmatched, Trump's comebacks are so much better:
Well, he's at it again," said O'Donnell, referring to a letter written to her by Trump and reported Tuesday by the media. The letter said Walters had told him that working with O'Donnell on ABC's "The View" is like "living in hell."(via)
"That poor, pathetic man," said Walters, drawing whoops of approval from her TV audience.
O'Donnell high-fived Walters and co-hosts Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. "You know, he just can't _ he just can't let go, but we're moving on," Walters said.
The co-hosts didn't mention him by name, referring to Trump as "he" and "that guy."
"The man is obsessed with me, and I'm happy to say his show tanked," said O'Donnell, in an apparent reference to the ratings of the latest edition of Trump's NBC reality show, "The Apprentice," which fell short of those from last spring's season premiere.
An e-mail from The Associated Press seeking comment from Trump wasn't immediately answered Wednesday. But TV show "The Insider" said a statement from Trump said, "They didn't even have the courage to mention me by name. It was sad to see Barbara read her statement off a cue card."
Here's the rest of his statement:
"Barbara has taken the low road for the sake of her show rather than the sake of her morality," he said. "She lied with [past co-host] Star Jones and now she has chosen to lie again.
"[Walters and O’Donnell] didn’t even have the courage to mention me by name. It was sad to see Barbara read her statement off a cue card.
"Rosie just pushed her out like a ("pathetic") puppet."
The Star Jones incident really did demonstrate that Walter's word could not be trusted, in this instance I believe Trump.
