00:00Rosie O'Donnell opens up about getting her Irish citizenship in New Interview after fleeing the U.S. for Europe because she no longer felt safe following Donald Trump's win.
00:11Rosie O'Donnell is just one of a handful of celebrities who have moved from the U.S. to Europe since Donald Trump began his second term in the White House.
00:21Their feud dates back to 2006 when she first criticized him on The View.
00:26She slammed Trump in an interview with Australia's The Daily Telegraph, saying,
00:31What's coming is fascism in the United States, pure and simple.
00:36She continued,
00:37Christian white nationalism, and that's not democracy, and that's not a democratic republic, and you know, that's not who we are.
00:45Adding,
00:46I feel that if we let them continue, we are doomed as a democracy.
00:50O'Donnell is loving life in Ireland, where she lives with her 12-year-old daughter Dakota,
00:55since January 2025.
00:58Never, for one moment since I arrived here, did I regret my choice, O'Donnell confirmed.
01:05She has applied for Irish citizenship, stating,
01:08I am applying and about to be approved for my Irish citizenship, as my grandparents were from there, and that's all you need.
01:14In July, Trump wrote on Truth Social,
01:17Because of the fact that Rosie O'Donnell is not in the best interests of our great country,
01:23I am giving serious consideration to taking away her citizenship.
01:28O'Donnell quickly responded,
01:30You call me a threat to humanity, but I'm everything you fear.
01:35A loud woman, a queer woman, a mother who tells the truth,
01:39an American who got out of the country before you set it ablaze.
