Rosie O’Donnell may be waking up in Ireland, but she made it clear this week that she’s not giving up her U.S. citizenship — no matter what Donald Trump threatens. In a recent TikTok video, O’Donnell addressed her ongoing feud with Trump, stating that she will never renounce her American citizenship. She explained that her move to Ireland in early 2025 was necessary to protect her family and mental health from the pain caused by Trump’s actions.
@pinknews Rosie O'Donnell has responded to Donald Trump threatening to revoke her US citizenship.On July 12, Trump took to Truth Social to post ‘Because of the fact that Rosie O'Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship. She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!’Rosie took to Instagram that same day to write ‘the president of the usa has always hated the fact that i see him for who he is – a criminal con man s3xual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself – this is why i moved to ireland – he is a dangerous old soulless man with dementia who lacks empathy compassion and basic humanity- i stand in direct opposition all he represents- so do millions of others – u gonna deport all who stand against ur evil tendencies – ur a bad joke who cant form a coherent sentence’Lesbian comic and actress Rosie O'Donnell has been a long time critic of Donald Trump. Their feud seemingly began in 2006, when she criticized his moral character, calling him a “snake-oil salesman” and “not a self-made made,” while she was a host of The View on ABC. There is no presidential power to strip anyone of citizenship, but since returning to the White House, Trump has sought to end birthright citizenship, guaranteed to Americans under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. #lgbtqia #america #donaldtrump #rosieodonnell #lesbian #comedian ♬ Minimal for news / news suspense(1169746) – Hiraoka Kotaro
Despite Trump’s recent threat to revoke her citizenship, O’Donnell emphasized that the U.S. Constitution does not allow for such actions. She highlighted the years of abuse she has endured from Trump and expressed concern over the level of danger he poses, not just to her but to the country as a whole. O’Donnell also criticized the wave of ICE raids in major cities, likening them to “Trump’s SS.”
While waiting for her Irish citizenship to be finalized, O’Donnell remains committed to speaking out against Trump. She urged Americans to take action to stop him and emphasized the importance of standing up against his abuses of power. The situation has potentially put an end to another feud O’Donnell had with Ellen DeGeneres, showing solidarity among ex-pats in opposing Trump’s actions.
