You can’t make this stuff up folks.

DONALD Trump has unleashed a secret weapon in his feud with Rosie O’Donnell - a gigantic black undergarment she wore in the movie “Exit to Eden,” which Trump sent to Barbara Walters on Monday to hang on the office wall at “The View.”

The girdle-like outfit - variously described as “a bustier” and “a giant pair of panties” - was bought at a charity auction by a fan, who then had the relic framed under glass and delivered to Trump.

“I sent it to Barbara to hang in her office because I didn’t want it in mine. It was funny, except that it was really gross. It’s disgusting,” Trump told Page Six. “I feel sorry for [Rosie's] wife. It can’t be pleasant.”

O’Donnell played the police detective partner of Dan Aykroyd in the 1994 comedy described by Leonard Maltin as a “strange cinematic catastrophe.” The two cops go undercover at a sado-masochistic fantasy camp, which required O’Donnell to wear the bustier with garters and stockings while brandishing a whip.

The movie was actually pretty funny.  It is one of the ones she did that really worked with her dry and sarcastic style.  And the garment is as described.  I guess it was just too easy of a target.

On “The View” on Monday, O’Donnell asked Walters, Joy Behar and Elizabeth Haselbeck: “You want to hear what a 61-year-old businessman did today? He sent Barbara . . .”

Walters interrupted: “But this is for me to say. This was sent for me, it was not sent to you.” O’Donnell: “Go ahead, you say it.” Walters: “No, I don’t want to.” O’Donnell: “You don’t want to?”

Walters ended the conversation, “I really do not want to stir up the whole Donald Trump thing again” - leaving viewers wondering what they were talking about.

This is what they were talking about:

Honestly I think Trump is just a bit too impressed with his own sense of humor and cleverness.  It was just a stupid wardrobe item for a movie, from years ago, and honestly his comments about her obesity are getting old.  I get easily bored with Ad Hominem attacks.

Is he gonna try and get her baseball skirt from that other movie and make jokes with it?

I have no great love for her, as anyone reading here can tell, but honestly he is really not playing this very smart.  He looks like an idiot pulling this kinda stunt.

Rosie and Barbara however, by mentioning it without mentioning it, drew the attention on him, but give themselves the high road by refusing to engage in his childishness.

I said before that the feud between them is one where both parties are pretty equally unsympathetic, and you don’t know who to root against.  Well in this one, Rosie came out slightly ahead.
