Donald TrumpDonald Trump’s disrespectful opinions and comments about women were well documented throughout the election campaign, from calling them “pigs” to valuing them only for their physical appearance.
But he seems to have a particular ire reserved for celebrity women, especially Rosie O’Donnell, Cher, and Bette Midler, whom he has repeatedly attacked via his Twitter account.
And though famous females have not been slow to critique the President-elect, he has been fast in hitting back, with personal attacks and stereotypical remarks about their looks.
As Trump prepares to be sworn in as President on January 20, it remains to be seen if he will swear off such personal attacks in future. ENTITY looks at the 10 women celebrities who most often seem to be the subject of his scorn.
Of course, Trump’s most famous adversary is this former co-host of “The View,” with whom he has feuded for years. The problem began for the pair when O’Donnell criticized the co-owner of the Miss USA pageant back in 2006, but blew up bigger with a series of insults on Twitter in 2011.
Trump never forgave nor forgot the original critique, and has since continued to bash the star, even sporadically throwing her name alongside insults directed at other celebrities.
I feel sorry for Rosie ‘s new partner in love whose parents are devastated at the thought of their daughter being with @Rosie–a true loser.

He brought her former wife, Michelle Rounds, into the debacle in 2011, posting, that he was “sorry” for her for being with a “true loser.” He has since repeatedly used that insult, also calling her “obnoxious” and “not politically correct.” He mocked her career as well, often slamming “The View,” for which she had appeared as a co-host.
Rosie is back on the View which tells you how desperate they must be. It is the standard short term fix and long term disaster.

Rosie is crude, rude, obnoxious and dumb – other than that I like her very much!

Trump has taken aim at the iconic singer a number of times, with his insults often surrounding her “dying career.” Cher has not shied away from criticizing the President-elect on Twitter, and has subsequently received his ire.
She had tweeted that Trump would ‘lie like his rug,’ seemingly mocking his hair, which prompted him to slam her over “plastic surgeries that didn’t work.”
.@Cher attacked @MittRomney. She is an average talent who is out of touch with reality. Like @Rosie O’Donnell, a total loser!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 10, 2012
.@cher should spend more time focusing on her family and dying career!

Midler is famously vocal about all of her opinions on social media, especially where it concerns politics, and has taken Trump to task via her account. The notoriously sensitive tycoon turned politician has not responded well to her criticism, firing back with a string of insults about her appearance.
He has called her “extremely unattractive” and also tried to cry “double standard” after Midler made comments about his hair, saying he was not allowed to talk about her “ugly face or body.”
.@BetteMidler talks about my hair but I’m not allowed to talk about her ugly face or body — so I won’t. Is this a double standard?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 28, 2012
While @BetteMidler is an extremely unattractive woman, I refuse to say that because I always insist on being politically correct.

Trump had believed that the UFC icon “liked” him, and therefore he had earned her vote. However, after Rousey corrected him, revealing she had no intention of voting for a reality TV star for president, she drew his wrath.
Rousey told Ellen DeGeneres that she was bewildered by the tweet since all she had spoken about was how she planned to vote. “So that makes me not a nice person. Those two things are related,” she mused.
And of course, while Rousey has since dropped the feud – that she never even knew existed – Trump has continued to insult her, celebrating her recent loss to Amanda Nunes.
Glad to see that @RondaRousey lost her championship fight last night. Was soundly beaten – not a nice person!

Wow Rhonda Rousey got knocked out in 48 seconds of the first round!
Just like Hilary, she didn’t stand a chance!

The former Miss Universe has been publicly mocked by Trump since she was crowned in 1996. He infamously criticized the beauty queen over her weight gain.
Machado found herself in Trump’s crosshairs again as she appeared in commercials for his opponent, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. After she discussed his inhumane treatment of her, Trump fired back, calling Machado his “worst Miss Universe” and judged her sexual history, calling her “disgusting.”
Wow, Crooked Hillary was duped and used by my worst Miss U. Hillary floated her as an “angel” without checking her past, which is terrible!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 30, 2016
Did Crooked Hillary help disgusting (check out sex tape and past) Alicia M become a U.S. citizen so she could use her in the debate?

Much like her celebrity counterparts, Goldberg has taken Trump to task on his policies on her own Twitter account as well as in her position as a co-host on “The View.” Trump’s thin skin of course would not allow for Goldberg to get away with such criticism, with the businessman turning to his Twitter to fire back.
He has bashed “The View” a number of times on his Twitter, but last January took a swipe at Goldberg in particular, calling her “terrible.”
The @TheView @ABC, once great when headed by @BarbaraJWalters, is now in total freefall. Whoopi Goldberg is terrible. Very sad!

Behar has no problem criticizing the President-elect, even admitting on “The View” that she takes pride in being on his “list” when it comes to Twitter hate.
She has slammed his policies on her own Twitter account, and never hesitates to jump into the discussion about him when the hot topic arises on “The View.” And so Trump shot back, claiming she got “fired from her last show for lack of ratings.” He is also happy pitting women against each other, tweeting that he prefers former co-host Barbara Walters over everyone on the show now.
Joy Behar, who was fired from her last show for lack of ratings, is even worse on @TheView. We love Barbara!

The “Sex and the City” star seemed to have done the least to attract one of the harsher comments from Trump. She made no mention of Trump himself, instead declining to comment on a charitable gift she had made to outgoing President Barack Obama’s campaign.
But that didn’t stop Trump from tweeting about his thoughts on SJP being labeled by Maxim as the “unsexiest woman alive.”
Sarah Jessica Parker voted “unsexiest woman alive” – I agree. She said “it’s beneath me to comment on the… http://t.co/1yGo1BNF

Couric is another woman who found herself the subject of Trump’s bullying tweets without having actually offended him. His grievance with her came in the form of her documentary “Under the Gun,” which was criticized by the gun lobby for misleading editing.
In favor of the second amendment, Trump came after the TV reporter on Twitter, demeaning her success and calling her “third rate.”
Katie Couric, the third rate reporter, who has been largely forgotten, should be ashamed of herself for the fraudulent editing of her doc.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model was seemingly attacked merely for her connection to “The View,” having served as a guest co-host for the series much maligned by Trump.
In an effort to slam the series, Trump also took down Sims, calling her a “disaster.”
The ratings for The View are really low. Nicole Wallace and Molly Sims are a disaster. Get new cast or just put it to sleep. Dead T.V.

Only time will tell if the new president will continue his women-hating Twitter rants once he takes office. Though as of right now, all signs seem to point toward: yes.
