Ellen DeGeneres steps in to back Rosie O'Donnell after Trump threat
Donald Trump threatened to revoke Rosie O'Donnell 's US citizenship, labelling her "a Threat to Humanity" on his Truth Social account.
Rosie O'Donnell responded robustly on Instagram, referring to Trump as "King Joffrey with a tangerine spray tan" and asserting she embodies "everything [he] feared."
Ellen DeGeneres, who has relocated to the UK, publicly expressed support for Rosie O'Donnell via an Instagram post.
President lacks the power to strip citizenship, though Trump has pursued ending birthright citizenship and his administration plans to "maximally pursue" denaturalisation.
Both O'Donnell, now residing in Ireland, and DeGeneres, living in the U.K., have moved outside the U.S., with O'Donnell explicitly linking her relocation to Trump's presidency.
