Rosie O’Donnell Hits Back After Trump Suggests She Should Lose Her U.S. Citizenship.
Comedian Rosie O’Donnell has publicly replied to Donald Trump’s recent suggestion that she should lose her U.S. citizenship, yet another chapter in their long-running feud between the two New York natives who once dominated daytime television.
Posting on Instagram shortly after Trump’s comment, she shared a decades-old photo showing him with jailed sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, a connection critics have revived as Trump faces renewed pressure to make all Epstein-related files public, a promise he flirted with during past campaigns.

Living in Ireland while pursuing citizenship through her grandparents, O’Donnell captioned the image, “I’m everything you fear. A loud woman, a queer woman, a mother who tells the truth, an American who got out of the country before you set it ablaze. You are everything that is wrong with America-and I’m everything you hate about what’s still right with it.”
She then addressed Trump directly, saying, “You want to revoke my citizenship? Go ahead and try, King Joffrey with a tangerine spray tan,” referring to the young tyrant from HBOs Game of Thrones who became a cultural shorthand for petty, spiteful power.
O’Donnell: I’m An American Who Got Out Before You Set It Ablaze.
O’Donnell spoke about the controversy during her recent guest appearance on Sunday with Miriam, broadcast on Irelands RT Radio 1. I posted a quick reply online in about five minutes, and that off-the-cuff note has somehow exploded, she noted, confirming her answer to the former President.
Trump Labels O-Donnell A Threat To Humanity On Truth Social.
I’m genuinely proud to stand against everything he says, does, and stands for. Over the weekend, Donald Trump told more than ten million followers on Truth Social that he was giving serious consideration to revoking O’Donnells citizenship because, in his view, she is not in the best interests of the United States. She is a threat to humanity, he added, and should stay in the wonderful country of Ireland, if they want her.
Now Musk and New York Rep. Zohran Mamdani Join Trumps Citizenship Hit List.
Recently, Donald Trump appeared to float the idea of ejecting Elon Musk from the United States, despite once counting the South African-born billionaire as an ally, and he also raised doubts about the immigration status of Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic candidate for New York City mayor who arrived from Uganda and naturalized in 2018.
Trump s threat directed at Lawrence Rosie O’Donnell carries a heavier charge because their animosity stretches back over many years. Rosie O’Donnell l first targeted the future president in 2006 while serving as a panelist on The View, ridiculing him in connection with a press conference he held for the Miss USA pageant he co-owned.
Feud Goes From The View Couch To The Apprentice Boardroom.
That same year Trump shot back during a celebrity episode of The Apprentice, unleashing a tirade in the boardroom and labeling Rosie O’Donnellisgusting again and again. Trump referenced ODonnell during his 2016 run for the White House. While debating rival Hillary Clinton, he remarked, Rosie ODonnell-I said very tough things to her, and I think everybody would agree that she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her.
O’Donnell Epstein-Tinged Post Appears As The Epstein Case Sees Fresh Headlines.
O’Donnell’s decision to share the Trump-Epstein photograph lands at a particularly newsworthy moment. On Saturday, Trump publicly defended Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi after she faced criticism for not yet releasing all the documents linked to Epstein. There has long been public curiosity about a rumored “client list” connected to the scandal. Bondis earlier disclosure included multiple black redactions and ultimately added little that the public did not already know.
What’s going on with my boys and, in some cases, gals? Trump asked. They’re all going after Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB. We are on one team, MAGA, and I don’t like what is happening. Epstein comes up time and again and, frankly, so many selfish people want to use that name to distract from the PERFECT Administration the TALK OF THE WORLD we built together.
One year ago, Trump declared, the country felt lifeless; today, it attracts more headlines and investors than anywhere else. He argued listeners should resist distractions like Jeffrey Epstein, a name few still follow or care about, and focus instead on sustaining this momentum.
DOJ And FBI State They’ve Never Located An Epstein Client List.
The President spoke shortly after a Justice Department-FBI memo reviewing the Epstein case became public, drawing fresh scrutiny. Investigators reported finding no record of a hidden client list and no proof that Epstein was murdered. They also stated credible evidence of blackmailing powerful figures simply does not exist.
Trump’s remarks about Epstein attracted attention partly because Elon Musk, in a now-deleted post, hinted the former President appears in sealed files linked to the late financier. That, Musk suggested, is why the documents remain under lock and why a public release lingers. He offered no supporting proof for the claim.
Trump’s association with Jeffrey Epstein stretches back many years. In a 2002 interview with New York magazine, he described Epstein as “a lot of fun to be with.” “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side,” Trump added, apparently amused.
In July 2019 NBC’s TODAY aired what they claimed was 1992 footage of Trump greeting Epstein at Mar-a-Lago, showing the pair mingling at resort events.
After Epstein was arrested on federal sex-trafficking charges in 2019, Trump quickly sought to separate himself from his longtime acquaintance. Standing in the Oval Office, he asserted, “I had a falling out with him. I haven’t spoken to him in 15 years. I was not a fan of his, that I can tell you.”
