Trump Threatens Rosie O'Donnell's Citizenship in Explosive Feud Over 'Threat to Humanity'

President Donald Trump has once again turned up the heat in his decades-long feud with comedian and actress Rosie O'Donnell, this time floating a provocative idea that has sparked heated debate. In a recent post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump suggested he might consider revoking O'Donnell's U.S. citizenship, branding her a 'Threat to Humanity' and urging her to stay in Ireland, where she relocated earlier this year. His words, laced with his signature bombast, read, '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. GOD BLESS AMERICA!'

O'Donnell, never one to shy away from a fight, fired back with a barrage of posts across her social media accounts. From Instagram to TikTok, the 'A League of Their Own' star unleashed a scathing critique, calling Trump a 'criminal con man' and a 'dangerous old soulless man with dementia.' She accused him of lacking empathy and humanity, standing firm in her opposition to everything he represents. In a particularly biting jab, she likened him to King Joffrey from Game of Thrones, complete with a 'tangerine spray tan.' O'Donnell also pointedly reminded followers of her decision to leave the U.S. after Trump's latest electoral victory, citing safety and equality concerns for herself and her child.

This latest clash is just another chapter in a feud that dates back to 2006, when O'Donnell criticized Trump on The View over his handling of a Miss USA controversy. Trump retaliated then by calling her a 'real loser,' and the war of words has simmered ever since, boiling over with each political milestone. O'Donnell's move to Ireland, confirmed earlier this year, was framed by her as a necessary escape from a country she believes Trump is steering toward ruin. She expressed gratitude for the warm welcome she's received abroad, though she misses aspects of her life back home.

Legally, Trump's threat to strip O'Donnell's citizenship appears to be more bluster than actionable policy. The 14th Amendment protects citizenship for those born in the U.S.—O'Donnell hails from Commack, New York—and legal experts widely agree that revoking citizenship from a natural-born citizen is nearly impossible without extreme circumstances like treason or fraud in naturalization, none of which apply here. Still, the rhetoric alone has reignited discussions about the boundaries of presidential power and the personal vendettas that often color political discourse.

Beyond the legalities, this spat reveals a deeper divide—between Trump's unyielding persona and O'Donnell's outspoken defiance, between those who see her as a traitor and those who view her as a truth-teller. As this public showdown unfolds, it’s clear neither side is backing down, and America is left watching yet another act in this long-running drama.
