Rosie O'Donnell
is coming back to The View
and Donald Trump
is not cool with that
calling her
"crude rude
obnoxious and dumb"
but "other than that"
he likes her "very much".
O'Donnell may have a reputation
for being loudly opinionated
against the Iraq war
for co-founding
so-called inclusive "R Family Vacations"
which are cruises
for gays and lesbians
and their families and friends
(and "cruising" really
is hardly appropriate
for those poor children
of LGBT couples)
for starting a program
to give free music
and dance instruction
to underprivileged kids
in New York City public schools
and for giving $22 million in grants
to organizations providing
for the welfare of children.
Trump may have a reputation
for doubting Obama's
place of origin
(or for later reversing his opinion
and saying Obama pretended
to be from Kenya
to get scholarship money)
or for having had businesses
bearing his name
file for bankruptcy
four times
but declaring that his
money-making prowess
makes him electable
to our land's highest office
but other than that
yes "The Donald"
don't worry
we like you
very much too.
