Rosie O’Donnell credited President Donald Trump for her re-discovered fame on Tuesday as the White House continued to call the actress and former co-host of ‘The View’ ‘obsessed.’ O’Donnell made the comments on ‘Good Hang’ with host Amy Poehler, referring to Trump as ‘Mango Mussolini.’ She believes Trump’s criticism of her has helped her career and life.
O’Donnell and Trump’s Longstanding Feud
O’Donnell and the president have traded barbs over the years, as the comedian remains one of Trump’s fiercest critics. She moved to Ireland after Trump’s 2024 election victory over former Vice President Kamala Harris. O’Donnell has appeared on multiple podcasts and shows, and she is set to guest host Jimmy Kimmel’s show for a week beginning next week.
The White House pointed to one of Trump’s Truth Social posts from June 6, which shows four images of O’Donnell with Trump appearing in thought bubbles near her head. The caption says O’Donnell ‘is obsessed.’ O’Donnell recently claimed that she and Trump’s decades-long feud has gone on in part because of their shared roots.
