Rosie O’Donnell returned to Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which she is guest hosting all week, on Tuesday with more barbs aimed at Donald Trump. The comedian, who is one of Trump’s most vocal critics alongside Kimmel, has surprised viewers by not focusing too much on the president during her late night monologues. Nevertheless, O’Donnell did have something to say about Trump’s latest claim in the war against Iran.
In a captionless post on Truth Social on Tuesday morning, the president circled the strait and labeled it “new U.S. territory.” Nicknaming Trump “Velvito Corleone,” O’Donnell showed the map to her audience Tuesday, saying it “made literally no sense.” “I’ll put it this way: If the US is in charge of the strait, then I’m also straight,” she continued. The moron-a-thon continues.” Despite Trump’s post, U.S. forces have thus far been unable to guarantee safe passage for ships through the Strait. Iran’s deputy foreign minister called the president’s assertion a “delusion” and warned that the U.S. could not seize the waterway by “tweet” or with military force.

Buckle up!” O’Donnell has been living in Ireland with her child, Clay, 13, since Trump’s second presidential inauguration in January last year — a move she also addressed during the monologue. And I decided to go to Ireland, a place where people are driven to drink regardless of who’s running their country.” The White House responded to O’Donnell’s remarks by sharing a link to a June Truth Social post from the president’s account, which questioned O’Donnell’s gender and accused her of being “obsessed” with Trump.
