The latest salvo in the ongoing war of words between the Trump White House and Rosie O'Donnell has left many in the entertainment industry scratching their heads, but for Venetians who value free expression, it's a welcome distraction from the usual politicking. The fact that a White House spokesperson would resort to name-calling, labeling O'Donnell a "nasty woman" and "total slob," speaks volumes about the current administration's approach to criticism.
