The question is ,what will Trump get out of this? Ms. USA lives at his building so he has access to her. An addict will do anything to maintain any form of stability in their life. So she might just give Trump what his wife hasn't in a while.

Give me a break. Rehab? Please.... Some people really need rehabilitation. This is becoming a fashionable excuse, and that's wrong.

Oh, I forget.
She is not just a s.ex and drug addict; Miss America is also a ***** because we have people like that perverted fat cow, Rosie O'Donnell, being allowed to condone and promote her deviant deviance on national TV. Tsk-tsk

So so-called Miss America is found to be a s.ex and drug addict and in need of 'rehab'; and we are surprised? LOL

We should be amazed if she was all of those and a lot more.

Donald Trump is perceived as racist in the black community and his actions today only confirms this. Had it been a black person, there would not have been any hesitation in taking away the crown, and quite frankly Donald did not want to give that black girl Tamiko that crown. But we all know that that Conner girl is a coke head and an alcohol abuser and should be removed.

Vanessa Williams and this woman both did wrong, but they were not given the same sentence. A black person can do the same crime as a white person, but the black person will get 10 years, and the white person 2 years probation. Statistics will prove my point. Race still does matter to white america. The sooner you all accept that, the better things will become between the races.

What I want to know is why people have brought up Vanessa Williams, she did not lose her crown because of her race, she lost of crown because it is strictly forbidden to have those kinds of pictures of yourself when you are part of that organization and she lied about it when she attempted to enter the pageants. Don't get me wrong I think Vanessa Williams is wonderful but she did something wrong when she had the crown. Get a grip you all are stupid people. We all do stupid things and we all make mistakes maybe next time you screw up big at work your boss will say oh well I don't believe in second chances so screw you you're fired! Or maybe your boss will say look this isn't the way we do things let's fix it and make it better this time around.... Which one would you prefer? She publicly apologized and thanked everyone, she admitted she made mistakes and that she had a problem, she is getting help and she is getting a second chance, what part of that is not good enough for your people!??!

I am so incredibly happy for Tara, I also strongly believe in second chances. I don't know of anyone that has not gone out to a bar or club before they were of legal age, most young people try drugs. Am I happy that this has happened and that she is from our home state no, but I think that this will be an amazing life lesson for her. Sometimes I cannot believe the people in this country, I'm so glad that all of you stone throwers are so perfect, perhaps you should all be 20/21 from a teeny tiny Kentucky town and try going to NYC, meeting new people and having the chance to be young while having such a huge responsibility. I'm glad so many people are perfect perhaps Jesus could take lessons from all of you, last I checked he was the only person that was perfect! All of you need to get a grip, the girl screwed up, she is getting a chance to make it right, be happy for her and stop being such ***!!!!

Why was Vanessa Williams not given this type of mercy, she was caught in a Web. Oh, I know why, she wasn't from the right race. When every other race does wrong, they're criminals; but when white people do wrong, they were deceived or what ever good execuse.

Incredible, that;s how I would discribe some of these most hateful posts. Who among us, when we were 20 did not do some "STUPID" things. I certainly did and I am sure most of you did. Take this girl from a small town in Kentucky, away from family and close friends, put her in front of millions of people, and all the great party spots in NYC and "STUPID" things will happen. Everyone and I do mean everyone with few exceptions deserves a second chance to correct their mistakes and this girl is no exception. Let's take this lesson from Mr. Trump and Ms. Connor and explain to our children that its ok to mess up once, just don't it twice.

This is sick. She can go to rehab but someone else should take over the title. We have a pretty sick world.

Some laws of our country need to be changed specially the ones based on DISCRIMINATION and HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS.Why the drinking age in our country still 21.In germany,it's 16,in Canada it's 18,why we should be the only backward COWBOY country in the world.TALIBANS also used to impose laws on their citizens but we had overthrown them because their laws were based on HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS.There must be LIBERTY and JUSTICE for all.
Why in UNITED STATES it's legally allowed for the HETEROSEXUAL CITIZENS to marry while HOMOSEXUALS are forbidden for the same act(discrimination on the basis of SEXUAL ORIENTATION).Why it is legally allowed for a man to run and jog on the streets completely TOPLESS whereas if a woman comits the same action,she may get arrested on the name of INDECENT EXPOSURE?Why the same behavior totally decent for a male is so INDECENT for a female that she may be put into prison?Just only because of being a female?(Discrimination based on GENDER).Those EUROPEAN countries where people are not discriminated on the basis of their GENDER or SEXUAL ORIENTATION have much lower crime rate then UNITED STATES.Is it better to see a NAKED BODY or to see a DEAD BODY?
When somebody is allowed to join Military to fight for his or her country at the age of 17,why he or she is not allowed to drink?As long as we keep on bringing that bible into politics which calls women DEVILS and the one who kicked out a man from HEAVEN by listening to DEVIL,human rights will be violated.

"But he said he changed his mind after talking with her. "I saw somebody that had a good heart that really, really tried %u2026 She left a small town in Kentucky and she was telling me she got caught up in the whirlwind of New York," Trump said."

What the hell is that??... blame that on New York City, yeah right and if you where in San Francisco then Oh I got caught up in San Francisco's fast life or Miami's! Stupid Chick

Actually, my little girl thinks that Paris Hilton is one of the biggest wastes of oxygen on the planet. And I happen to agree with her.

Well let's see? We allow our "President" to mislead the country and it's people with lies and he gets elected a second term? Why not give an example to all American little girls that it's ok to party and sniff without care. These are the same little girls that believe Paris Hilton to be a ROLE MODEL! Let's give them another Role Mole, Miss USA. I mean you are in the right country where you can get away with it all, just look at the President!

No Jon Benet had it much worse and it is too bad for her that 50% of the people who probably knew the truth as to what really happened is gone. She is 21 years old, she could have stopped the pageants long before now. Get a grip!
