Rosie vs. Donald -- you KNEW i'd opine...

I'm on Rosie's side, 100%. And here's why (and if you don't agree with me, um, well, it's getting SO cliched to say you're a fucking idiot, but...). Before I defend her, though, let me say that i'm NOT some super loyal, sycophantic fan of hers. She can be grating, overbearing, eye-rolling in her self-absorption. She can be just "too much." I know this. But she's also pretty fucking funny a lot of the time...partly because she's also pretty fucking honest and, to a decent degree, down to earth. So recall when the Miss USA fucking pointless all-around bullshit was going down, and I was just beyond livid with rage over it being the top news story? Well, it all DOES begin there, doesn't it? EVERYTHING about that was such an overbloated non-issue...namely, Trump and Cunt Whore USA. And, so, right off the bat, I cheered Rosie bashing him. Donald Trump's a self-promoting gasbag who just talks, talks, talks until his lies and half-truths coalesce into public truth. He'll do ANYthing for promotion. It's ALL about promotion. Period. Rosie called him on it. He got mad. Downhill from there. Now it's called THE VIEW...and Rosie gave hers. Trump DID file for bankruptcy...um, his company did...same fucking thing. Trump IS like a pimp with his little Miss USA whores (and, gee, her mulling Playboy REALLY should shatter that illusion). He ISN'T a moral compass. It's unrealistic to think Trump...or anyone...would sit back and not return fire. But his arguments are SOOOOOO 7th grade and devoid of ANY actual truths. Well, except that Rosie's fat and a lesbian. And that's ALL he has. He's truly like a school bully in the playground, just relentlessly taunting someone and NOT shutting up. Hey, I think he's a riot...I laugh out loud every time I see him...but it's AT him, not WITH him...and i'm not sure he gets this. He's just more and more revealing himself to be EXACTLY what Rosie called him out to be...a jackass. Meanwhile, Baba Fucking Wawa knew what she was getting into hiring Rosie. God, there's just too many points for me to make here. Rosie's honesty extends to other celebs...she's not there to kiss every famous person's ass, like Miss Walters seems increasingly and ridiculously about. Walters travels in rarified social circles...and a rather varied circle at that. She is FAR too concerned with remaining on good terms with every single famous person on earth. Well, this ain't 20/20, Baba....it's a morning gabfest...and your lofty news credentials just don't matter here. In fact, they're in the way. If Walters wanted to remain untarnished by girly talk gossip and celeb-feuding, she should have stayed behind a news desk. She was asking for trouble, and she's gotten it. She's now in the middle of a he-said, she-said feud that gets nastier by the day...and i'm fucking LOVING it like no other celeb feud EVER. Think about it...we have a real estate millionaire, a Tell It Like It Is comedienne, and now arguably the most successful female newswoman in history ALL fighting. Love them or hate them, they're each VERY successful and powerful figures. Kind of a level-playing field, if you will. But in the end, it's all about the TRUTH...and Rosie wins, hands down. And if she leaves THE VIEW somehow because of this, don't think it means She's The Loser. Fact is, Barbara co-owns the show...she's the boss. But Rosie has gazillions of dollars of her own, not to mention her own immense fan base. Oh, yes, and she has The Truth.
