WASHINGTON, DC: Comedian and talk show host Rosie O’Donnell has again aimed at President Donald Trump, delivering a scathing critique in her new TikTok video, wherein she accuses the president of having no compassion and questions his very humanity. Her statement marks the latest in a series of pointed remarks she has made about Trump in recent times.

In a video uploaded on TikTok, O'Donnell slammed Trump by saying, “And those with what he calls derangement syndrome are the ones who think that he’s a good man. And ‘it’ is not a good man. It’s hardly even a human. Humans are full of compassion and empathy, and he has ‘zero’. Z_E_R_O.”

This is the second time O’Donnell is slamming Trump without naming him. Earlier on Sunday, December 21, she criticized Trump for the decision to rename the Kennedy Center after himself, saying, “The Kennedy Center debacle… it has gone too far. It is seriously unwell.”

She added, “It needs to be removed from office,” ending her statement by referring to the president as “‘It,’ the nameless blob of negative energy."

O’Donnell is often slammed for her obsession with the president despite moving to Ireland last year. She has admitted that she still 'can’t resist' talking about Trump, despite repeated vows to stop.

Earlier this month, while speaking to The Washington Post from her new home in Ireland, O’Donnell revealed she promised her therapist that before Thanksgiving, she would go two full days without posting about Trump, a promise she broke within hours.

Her friends and family have also noticed it. Longtime friend Jennifer Kopetic said she grew 'annoyed' during a recent trip when she urged O’Donnell, “Roseann, you’ve got to detach. You’ve got to disconnect.”

The comedian later attempted a three-day promise to her 1.2 million Instagram followers, telling them she was 'gonna try again to not give him a minute of me.' She failed that one, too.

O’Donnell has openly tied the roots of her anxiety to Trump’s 2016 victory. “I felt on the verge of crying … when he got elected,” she told an Irish TV audience in March, adding she feared what a second Trump term could mean for her family.

Her concerns, she said, were deeply personal. As a lesbian mother of five, with her youngest, 12-year-old Clay, identifying as nonbinary and diagnosed with autism, she feared increasing hostility toward LGBTQ Americans and potential cuts to special-education support.

During Trump’s first term, she poured her anxiety into more than 200 digital portraits of him on her iPad, labeling the president 'moron, loser, and liar.'
