I heard the audio of Donald's interview this morning on the radio and there were some vicious remarks that didn't make the story below.
I'm looking for the video, but so far, nothing on YouTube.
If I can find what I heard this morning, I think y'all would want to see/hear it, it's great stuff.

The Donald Strikes Back
December 21, 2006
In an interview with ET late Wednesday afternoon, DONALD TRUMP has fired back at the comments ROSIE O'DONNELL made about him on Wednesday morning's episode of "The View."
Rosie had blasted the Miss USA co-owner with a rant on "The View," criticizing his ability to act as a moral compass for young women. The outspoken "View" co-host personally attacked The Donald's character after his decision to give current Miss USA TARA CONNER a second chance, following allegations of underage drinking and other misconduct.
Donald took his gloves off and hit back hard on Wednesday afternoon, saying, "Rosie O'Donnell is disgusting, I mean, both inside and out." He goes on to say that "she talks like a truck driver" and calls her "a disaster."
The Donald also questions, "I never understood, how did she even get on television?" He says he believes that "[Executive Producer] BARBARA [WALTERS] made a terrible mistake putting her on."
He tells ET that he's considering suing Rosie for remarks she made about his financial solvency. "I'll probably sue Rosie because she doesn't tell the facts," he says, adding that, though Rosie claimed on "The View" that he had filed for bankruptcy, he is worth "many billions of dollars" and "never filed bankruptcy."
He also says that suing her "would be fun."
O'Donnell had slammed Trump on the morning talk show because he "left the first wife, had an affair, had kids both times -- but he's the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America. Donald, sit and spin, my friend."
"Here comes the lawsuit -- get ready -- this is going to be good," Rosie added, acknowledging that her comments could end up getting her in trouble.
Although Rosie has not yet responded to Trump's remarks, her rep earlier told ET: "Rosie stands by every comment she said today on 'The View' about Donald Trump."
The show's executive producers, BILL GEDDIE and BARBARA WALTERS (who called in from vacation), issued this statement to ET: "Both Rosie and Donald are high-spirited, opinionated people. Donald has been a friend of 'The View' for many years and Rosie, of course, is our enormously popular moderator. We cherish them both and hope the new year brings calm and peace."
Stay tuned to ET for the details on Hollywood's latest celebrity feud!
