Donald Trump Acted Like A Fool, Says Barbara Walters [Video]
Donald Trump’s big announcement turned out to be a big joke. The real estate mogul has been widely criticized for his latest publicity stunt and now his friend Barbara Walters is urging him to stop with his political antics.
Earlier this week Trump announced that he was going to make a big announcement regarding President Obama. Well, it turns out that Trump really had nothing to announce. What he did have was a $5 million offer for the president to release his college transcripts.
The Donald said that he would donate $5 million to a charity of the president’s choosing if Obama released his college records. The offer was viewed as a joke by many and Walters is urging the King Birther to stop with his non-sense.
“Donald, you’re making a fool of yourself… You and I have known each other for many years and you know that I am your friend, and I think you are a brilliant businessman, and you are great on television and you have a fascinating personality. Donald, you’re not hurting Obama, you’re hurting Donald, and that hurts me because you’re a decent man… Stop it! Get off it, Donald!”
Trump responded to Walters on Twitter saying that his friend “just didn’t get it.” Trump went on to say that he expects Walters to apologize to him in the near future.

What did you think about Donald Trump’s big announcement? Should President Obama take the $5 million and release his college transcripts? Was Barbara Walters right? Is Donald acting like a fool? Should Trump accept Stephen Colbert’s counter offer?
President Obama addressed the offer last night on Jay Leno. The talk show host asked the President if he knew why Trump held such a grudge against him. Obama said that it probably started during their childhood in Kenya.
