In a very funny troll of a post on Truth Social that came in response to the latest iteration of his ever-raging feud with woke actress Rosie O’Donnell, President Donald Trump suggested that he was seriously thinking about stripping her of her citizenship because she is so anti-American and a “threat to humanity.”
For reference, President Trump has had a feud with O’Donnell that goes back many years, having started even before he came down the golden escalator in 2015 and became the enemy of Hollywood and leftists like those in it by running on a platform somewhat to the right of most Republicans.
That feud became famous when, during a Republican primary debate, Megyn Kelly asked him about denigrating comments he had made on Twitter (now X) that were directed at “women,” and he clarified that they were only directed at Rosie O’Donnell, a comment that brought huge roars of laughter from the crowd and was a moment that almost ended Kelly’s career.
In any case, the Trump-O’Donnell feud has cropped back up now that Trump is president again, and the president has said that he wants to strip the leftist actress and television host, who moved to Ireland after Trump was inaugurated as president in January, of her American citizenship.
Such is what he posted on Truth Social on the morning of Saturday, July 12, saying that O’Donnell doesn’t care about America’s interests and so he wants to take away her citizenship. He began, “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.”
Continuing, he added that O’Donnell is awful and if Ireland is somehow willing to let her remain there, then they can have the “threat to humanity” that is her for good for all he cares. He wrote, “She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!”
Firing back in an angry tirade on her Instagram account, O’Donnell went on the attack against the president. She wrote, “You call me a threat to humanity – but 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 b4 u set it ablaze.”

She added, further attacking him, “You crave loyalty – I teach my children to question power you sell fear on golf courses – I make art about surviving trauma you lie, you steal, you degrade – I nurture, I create, I persist. You are everything that is wrong with america… I’m not yours to silence. I never was.”
What appears to have precipitated this latest chapter in the feud was a video O’Donnell posted for Independence Day in which she called for a revolt against Trump. First she read off part of the Declaration of Independence, saying, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights — that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it and to institute new government.” She then added, insinuating that she wanted a revolt to happen, “Come on, America. Keep going.” Concluding, she said, “Happy Fourth of July. This is a sad day in American history.”
