Well, well, well! If it isn't Ireland's least favorite resident!
That's right, Rosie O'Donnell couldn't stay out of the spotlight for too long. The former talk show host and American expat revealed thatshe took a little trip back to The Motherlandshortly after President Donald Trump's inauguration last year.
And the way she talks about it, you would think she had snuck out of North Korea by the skin of her teeth.
"I was recently home for two weeks, and I did not really tell anyone," O'Donnell said on Chris Cuomo's Sirius XM show "Cuomo Mornings." "I just went to see my family. I wanted to see how hard it would be for me to get in and out of the country. I wanted to feel what it felt like. I wanted to hold my children again. And I hadn’t been home in over a year."
She wanted to "hold her children again?" Whose fault is it you couldn't see them in the first place?
Clearly, it isn't America's or Trump's fault, because she was able to easily come back without setting off any alarms, as we are only just now learning about her "clandestine" trip over a year after the fact.
O'Donnell also claimed she wanted to make sure the country was safe for her daughter to come visit over the summer and that America "feels like a very different country" to her.
"I’m very happy that I’m not in the midst of it there because the energy that I felt while in the United States was — if I could use the most simple word I can think of — it was scary," she added. "There’s a feeling that something is really wrong, and no one is doing anything about it."
I have no idea what O'Donnell is afraid of, unless she thinks that, because she's lived in Ireland for about the same time as a college student doing a European exchange program has, that she's going to be detained by ICE.
Hey, Rosie, there's nothing illegal about visiting the United States… especially when you're a U.S. citizen.
