Seinfeld vs. Trump

Jerry Seinfeld is not holding back his distaste for Donald Trump.  He recently pulled out of an upcoming even in September for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital being hosted by Trump’s son Eric.

Seinfeld is upset about Trump’s questions President Obama’s birth certificate and citizenship.  Trump recent wrote a letter to Seinfeld bashing the president.  He said, "because of the fact that I am being very aggressive with respect to President Obama, who is doing an absolutely terrible job as our leader." We don't care that you broke your commitment, he wrote, even though the children of St. Jude are very disappointed, and despite the fact that your manager clearly stated you are 'truly a man of his word."

Trump called Seinfeld’s reality show “The Marriage Ref” a complete failure.  He regrets making an appearance on his show. 

A rep for Jerry Seinfeld said, "Jerry... feels this kind of demagoguery has no place in public discourse... He has respectfully withdrawn from the event, and is making a contribution both to the Eric Trump Foundation and to St. Jude."
