Rosie O'Donnell slams 'gaudy' Donald Trump and claims he's 'failed at almost everything'
Comedian
Rosie O'Donnell
has taken aim at President
Donald Trump
yet again and accused him of being "obsessed" with her.
Rosie, 63, who
made the decision to move to Ireland
when Trump came back into power, opened up about
her fallout with the 78-year-old
during an appearance on
The Jim Acosta Show
.
The duo were talking about Trump Towers, when Jim recounted his first impressions saying: "I go in there and I'm like, why is this place such a dump? Why does it look so s****y? Like the gold plating and stuff was kind of faded and you would go down to the men's room and it was like. Wow. This is kind of like Penn Station. I mean, it's not that."

Rosie was quick to offer her opinion, and replied, "Yes. Well, he has no taste. He is very gaudy. He thinks that gold lame will fool people and, you know, he would probably sell it as gold if he had a chance. His steaks went out of business." She then went on to make her own shocking claim about a bottle of Trump booze that she was gifted.

"I remember I had somebody give me... he had some liquor company at one point and somebody gave me a bottle, closed bottle of his liquor with two bugs in it. Like there were two dead flies in it and in a sealed bottle of liquor,' Rosie claimed.
"Wow!" Jim replied, as Rosie added: "And I kept it on the counter for many, many years. But I, you know, this man has failed at almost everything he's ever tried and to think that so many people believe the lie that Mark Burnett told over and over."
Elsewhere in the chat, when Jim noted that Trump seems to be "obsessed" with Rosie, she responded: "Yes, he does. He does seem to be obsessed."
Elaborating further, she said: "You know, he had Miss America pageant, Miss Teen America, this Tara O'Connor, I believe her name was, and she was in the village. She kissed a girl, she was drunk and the Post printed it. And he, right before the view was live, had a press conference to make her publicly apologize. And it looked to me a lot like a pimp and a prostitute. And I said that on The View.

"And then I proceeded to tell factual, accurate information. About his bankruptcies, about how he was not a self-made man. I told facts that anyone could have Googled and found out. And he went bats--t crazy."
Just earlier this month, Rosie hit headlines when she fled the US with her 12-year-old child Clay and relocated to Ireland.
In a bizarre sequence of events, the View host is said to have left behind the rest of her family to 'escape
Donald Trump
's policies,' including her daughter Chelsea, who she has now reportedly cut out of her will.
Clay, who at 12, is the youngest of the comedian's five adopted children. The actress also has Parker, 29, Blake, 25, and daughters Chelsea, 27, Vivienne, 22.

After O'Donnell opened about the health benefits of relocating to Ireland from the US, it has now been reported The View host, 63, cut her daughter out of her '$80,000,000' estate in the days before she left.
"Chelsea really didn't care that Rosie wrote her out,' a source told the
Daily Mail
. Money is what allowed for Rosie to send her away to six or seven boarding schools during her lifetime.
"Rich people can pay someone else to raise their kids. Middle- or lower-class parents actually have to be parents, they can't ship their kids off at the first sign of trouble,' the source added.
Since her grandparents were Irish, the former talk show host is eligible to get citizenship, but said her application has yet to be approved.
