LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: It seems Rosie O’Donnell is back to stirring the pot from across the pond.

The outspoken comedian and former talk show host was recently featured on Irish television, and she had a lot to get off her chest.



 

Rosie O'Donnell says Donald Trump's 2024 election win should be investigated

In her first TV interview since ditching the United States for a new life on the Emerald Isle, Rosie O’Donnell sat down with Patrick Kielty on 'The Late Late Show' and dropped some major election fraud suspicions, the Daily Mail reported.

She is questioning whether the 2024 presidential election was stolen—and she’s pointing the finger at tech billionaire Elon Musk (without actually saying his name).

O’Donnell claimed the numbers just don’t add up.

"I question why for the first time in American history, a president has won every swing state and his largest donor was a man who owns and runs the internet," she said, clearly hinting at Musk.

"I would hope that would be investigated," she added. "Whether or not it was an anomaly... or something else that happened on election night in America."

O’Donnell told Kielty that she found Trump’s win strange because then-Vice President Kamala Harris was allegedly "filling up stadiums with people who supported her and Donald Trump was not able to do that."

Rosie O'Donnell left the US because of 'terrifying' Donald Trump 

According to Rosie O’Donnell, her move to Ireland is not just about the beautiful scenery and cozy pubs. 

"The president of the United States has it out for me," she declared, referring to her longtime nemesis. It's worth noting that Trump and O’Donnell have been throwing jabs at each other for decades.

She says she’s been on Trump’s hit list ever since she went after him on 'The View' over his bankruptcies and assault allegations.

"He hasn't let it go. He uses me as a punchline whenever he feels the need," she said, adding that she’s deeply disturbed by Trump’s power.

"The Supreme Court has given him ultimate power—the powers of a king or a monarch," she warned. "That's not what the United States is about. It's terrifying."

Trump, of course, still hasn’t forgotten about her. During a recent White House meeting with Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin, the MAGA leader casually joked with Martin that he was "better off" not knowing who O’Donnell was. She later sent an apology note to the Irish leader’s office for the White House interaction.



 

Now happily settled in the picturesque coastal town of Howth, O’Donnell said her daughter Clay is thriving. "She told me at dinner, 'Mommy, I like it here better. You can just be a normal person,'" the comedian shared.

But she insists she’s not done with America entirely. "A large part of me does [want to go back and fight]. That's what I've done my whole career," she said. 

Rosie O'Donnell  and Donald Trump's never-ending feud

If you think this is the first time Rosie O’Donnell has gone after Donald Trump, it's worth noting that this war has been raging since 2006.

Back then, O’Donnell ripped into Trump on 'The View' for letting then-Miss USA Tara Conner keep her crown after getting busted for underage drinking. Trump, who owned the pageant at the time, defended his decision saying he believed in "second chances" and sent Conner to rehab instead.



 

When Trump heard O'Donnell's comments about Conner's conduct, he called her "a real loser."

Over the years, he’s dragged her through the mud—calling her "dumb," "desperate," "fat," and "disgusting both inside and out." He also said that he would have immediately fired her if he were in charge of 'The View', which O'Donnell was on for a brief period in the 2006-2007 season.

"I'd fire Rosie, I mean I'd look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers and I'd say, 'Rosie, you're fired,'" he said, borrowing his iconic catchphrase from 'The Apprentice'. 



 

During the 2015 Republican primary debate, moderator Megyn Kelly confronted Trump about his history of insulting women. "You’ve called women you don’t like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals," Kelly said.



 

Trump didn’t even blink before he interjected. "Only Rosie O’Donnell," he shot back. The crowd erupted in laughter and cheers, cementing it as one of the most savage comebacks of all time.
