Donald Trump just reignited his feud with Rosie O'Donnell. The real-estate tycoon and Republican presidential candidate slammed the TV personality during the first GOP Primary debate Thursday night, August 6 on Fox News.
Moderator Megyn Kelly was asking Trump about his often-disparaging comments toward women, "You've called women fat pigs, dogs, slobs, disgusting animals. Your Twitter account has several...," before Trump cut her off, "Only Rosie O'Donnell."
He went on defending himself, "I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct. I've been challenged by so many people and I don't frankly have time for total political correctness." He added that many of his comments online were meant to be "fun" and were just "kidding."
Learning of this, O'Donnell quickly reacted on Twitter as writing, "try explaining that 2 ur kids."
O'Donnell and Trump's feud started years ago. In 2006, O'Donnell called Trump a "snake-oil salesman" for refusing to fire Miss USA Tara Connor. The businessman hit back, describing the actress as "nice fat little Rosie" and a "dummy."
"She's an extremely unattractive person who doesn't understand the truth," he said on "Larry King Live" at the time. "I think she's a terrible person ... She has failed at everything she has done... She's a bully and she sucker punches people."
Later in 2014, O'Donnell called "the Trump stuff ... the most bullying I ever experienced in my life, including as a child."
