BREAKING: Trump Sparks Controversy After Threatening Rosie O’Donnell’s Citizenship on Truth Social By Sele Media AfricaFormer U.S. President Donald J. Trump has once again ignited controversy online after suggesting that comedian and actress Rosie O’Donnell should have her U.S. citizenship revoked. The comment was made via his Truth Social account, where Trump wrote: ⁠“As previously mentioned, we are giving serious thought to taking away Rosie O’Donnell’s Citizenship. She is not a Great American and is, in my opinion, incapable of being so!”The post has sparked a fresh wave of backlash and debate across U.S. political and social spheres, with critics accusing Trump of promoting authoritarian rhetoric, while some of his loyal supporters defended his right to express disdain toward long-time critics like O’Donnell.The feud between Trump and Rosie O’Donnell dates back over a decade, often characterized by personal insults and public clashes. However, Trump’s recent comment — suggesting stripping citizenship, a right protected under the U.S. Constitution — has been widely condemned by legal experts and civil rights groups.Legal experts weigh inConstitutional scholars were quick to point out that the U.S. government cannot arbitrarily revoke someone’s citizenship based on personal disagreements or political views. According to the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, citizenship cannot be taken away without due process.Speaking to CNN, civil rights attorney Lisa Bloom said, “This isn’t just outrageous—it’s unconstitutional. No president or former president has the power to revoke citizenship on a whim.”Social media reactions The post quickly went viral, with #Rosie trending on X (formerly Twitter). Thousands of users from across the political divide reacted, many expressing shock at Trump’s language. ⁠“This is fascist rhetoric. Whether you like Rosie or not, threatening to remove someone’s citizenship for disagreeing with you is dangerous,” wrote one user.What’s next? While Trump’s post may not translate into any legal action, it highlights the increasingly hostile tone of political discourse in the United States ahead of the 2024 presidential election, in which Trump remains a key figure.Sele Media Africa will continue to monitor reactions from Rosie O’Donnell and other public figures as this story develops.
