Rosie O’Donnell has shared a thank-you note for Donald Trump. Her latest statement on the Jimmy Kimmel Live monologue has surprised fans.
O’Donnell recently came back as a talk show host on Jimmy Kimmel Live. In a surprising turn of events, the talk show host extended her gratitude to the current President of the United States of America, Donald Trump. She said, “This has been kind of a strange experience for me because all of a sudden I’m re-famous. I’m back in the spotlight all thanks to President Ompa J. Loompa, who is watching us this evening from inside a catering cart. You know, I couldn’t have done it without you, sweetie.”
Surely, this was a bizarre move from O’Donnell. That’s because the talk show host has a publicly bitter relationship with the American President. Given the duo’s mutual indifference over the past 20 years, the show’s fans found it hard to wrap their heads around this sudden shift in tone.
Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump have traded public barbs for decades
The rivalry between O’Donnell and Trump dates back to 2006. It all started when the Jimmy Kimmel Live talk show host criticized Trump on The View. This prompted a sharp response from the current US President, who launched a personal verbal attack. As the war of words continued, the President termed O’Donnell ‘fat.’ Since then, for the last twenty years, the duo has been at loggerheads.
With her new remarks surfacing, the element of surprise was palpable. However, in reality, O’Donnell did not actually thank Trump. Rather, it was a sarcastic statement on her part. She followed her thank-you note by saying, “You brought me back just like you did with fascism and the measles.” The talk show host also mocked Trump for his latest post about the Iran war. Citing one of the Truth Social posts, O’Donnell named Trump ‘Velvito Corleone.’
