President Donald Trump has reignited his long-running feud with comedian and actress Rosie O’Donnell, this time calling her “a threat to humanity” and suggesting she should stay in Ireland permanently.
Trump Targets O’Donnell on Truth Social
On Saturday, July 12, the 79-year-old President took to Truth Social to attack O’Donnell, 63, stating that she poses a danger to the country.
Referring to her recent relocation to Ireland, Trump wrote, “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!”
O’Donnell had previously cited Trump’s second inauguration in January 2025 as the final push for her decision to leave the U.S.

A Feud That Began Nearly Two Decades Ago
The public spat between Trump and O’Donnell began back in December 2006 during her stint on The View. Commenting on Trump’s decision to give Miss USA Tara Conner a second chance after an underage drinking scandal, O’Donnell questioned his moral authority and called him a “snake-oil salesman on Little House On The Prairie.”
She added, “He annoys me on a multitude of levels… He’s not a self-made man. He left the first wife, had an affair, left the second wife, had an affair, had kids both times, but he’s the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America. Donald, sit and spin, my friend. I don’t enjoy him.”
Trump’s Immediate and Ongoing Response
Trump didn’t take her comments lightly. In an interview with People magazine, he called her “a woman out of control” and threatened to sue. “Rosie will rue the words she said,” he warned. “Rosie’s a loser. A real loser.”
