Source say comedian, Jerry Springfield was scheduled to attend an event on September 13 for St. Jude Children’s Research hospital and the Eric Trump Foundation, and he decided not to appear. He has reportedly canceled his appearance because of Donald Trump’s negative comments about President Obama.
Reportedly, Trump wrote a letter to Seinfeld saying, “I just learned you canceled a show for my son’s charity 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.” He went on to write, “we don’t care that you broke your commitment, 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 is thinking of making a run at president for 2012.
“What I do feel badly about is that I agreed to do, and did, your failed show, ‘The Marriage Ref,’ even though I thought it was absolutely terrible,” Trump wrote. “Despite its poor ratings, I didn’t cancel on you like you canceled on my son and St. Jude. I only wish I did.”
Seinfeld’s representative has said that Seinfeld made the agreement to appear before Trump chose to begin questioning Obama’s birth certificate. He has grown more uncomfortable with Trump since then.
“Jerry … feels this kind of demagoguery has no place in public discourse,” his rep said. “He has respectfully withdrawn from the event, and is making a contribution both to the Eric Trump Foundation and to [St. Jude].”
Bret Michaels will reportedly be taking Seinfeld’s place.
“Donald Trump and his family have been wonderful to me and St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital is one of my favorite charities, so I’m honored to have been asked by Eric and the rest of the Trump family to be a part of this event and help raise money for such an admirable cause,” Michaels said, adding about Seinfeld. “We should never allow the spirit of generosity to be overshadowed by divisive political beliefs — and when it comes to saving the life of a child, there is absolutely no room for political rhetoric.”
Donald Trump Weighs: Carrie Prejean

She does have that Porn Star look: She can do it!
Carrie Prejean has been calling Donald Trump, who owns the Miss Universe and Miss USA pageants, for advice on what she should do since she was fired as Miss California and a sex tape surfaced. Prejean — a Christian who was vilified because she opposes gay marriage — has lost all credibility and her reputation has been blown to shreds, Trump told one source. “Maybe,” Mr. Trump said only half-jokingly, “she should become a major porn star, make millions of dollars, and give it to worthy causes.”
