Ellen DeGeneres Shares Blunt Three-Word Statement After Trump Threatens To Revoke Rosie O’Donnell’s US Citizenship
**Ellen Backs Rosie After Trump’s Citizenship Threat**
Ellen DeGeneres has publicly supported Rosie O’Donnell after Donald Trump threatened to revoke her U.S. citizenship. The former president made the bizarre claim on Truth Social, calling O’Donnell a “Threat to Humanity” and suggesting she stay in Ireland.
Legal experts quickly dismissed Trump’s threat as empty. University of Virginia law professor Amanda Frost stated: “The president has no authority to take away the citizenship of a native-born U.S. citizen.” The Constitution protects birthright citizenship regardless of political disagreements.
O’Donnell, who moved to Ireland during Trump’s presidency, fired back by sharing a photo of Trump with Jeffrey Epstein. She wrote: “I’m everything you hate about what’s still right with America.” The comedian has been a vocal Trump critic for years.
White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson dismissed O’Donnell’s response as “unhinged rants,” accusing her of suffering from “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” The exchange highlights ongoing tensions between Trump and his critics.
DeGeneres entered the fray with a simple Instagram post supporting her friend. Sharing a screenshot of the feud, she wrote: “Good for you @rosie,” applauding O’Donnell’s defiance.
The incident underscores Trump’s continued willingness to target personal opponents, even after leaving office. His latest attack follows a pattern of controversial social media statements about public figures.
While legally meaningless, the threat reinforces the divisive rhetoric that has characterized Trump’s political career. Meanwhile, O’Donnell and her allies remain unafraid to push back against his provocations.
