Rosie ODonnell floats bizarre conspiracy theory about Elon Musk after fleeing US after election

Rosie ODonnell has suggested the 2024 presidential election may have been stolen during her first Irish television interview since leaving the United States for Ireland.

The famously outspoken comedian and former talk show host spoke with Patrick Kielty on Fridays The Late Late Show on the Irish channel RTE One in which she implicated tech billionaire Elon Musk without naming him directly.

I question why for the first time in American history, a president has won every swing state and his largest donor was a man who owns and runs the internet, ODonnell said.  

I would hope that would be investigated, she added. Whether or not it was an anomaly... or something else that happened on election night in America.

ODonnell told Kielty how she found Trumps win strange because then-Vice President Kamala Harris was filling up stadiums with people who supported her and Donald Trump was not able to do that. 

Now self-exiled in Ireland, ODonnell explained how she fled the US following what she calls a terrifying sequence of political events. 

The president of the United States has it out for me, she said, referring to Donald Trump, with whom shes had a public feud spanning decades. 

She explained how her critique of Trumps bankruptcies and sexual assault allegations on TV show The View had made her a long-term target.

During a recent White House meeting with the Irish prime minister, Micheál Martin, Trump took a shot her saying the PM was better off not knowing who she was 

He hasnt let it go. He uses me as a punchline whenever he feels the need.

The Supreme Court has given him ultimate power - the powers of a king or a monarch, she warned, referring to what she perceives as the erosion of American democracy. Thats not what the United States is about. Its terrifying. 

It appears Trump has not forgotten ODonnell either. During a recent White House meeting with the Irish prime minister, Micheál Martin, Trump took a shot her saying the PM was better off not knowing who she was. 

ODonnell said she sent an apology note to the prime ministers office following the Trump meeting.

ODonnell now lives in Howth, a coastal town in Ireland, where she says her daughter Clay is thriving, charmed by the Irish pub culture. 

She told me at dinner, "Mommy, I like it here better. You can just be a normal person."

Despite settling into Irish life, ODonnell insists shes not done with America entirely.

A large part of me does [want to go back and fight], she said. Thats what Ive done my whole career.

But before that, ODonnell says she now plans to pursue Irish citizenship.

Taking to earlier this month, the actress and comedian shared a nine-minute video in which she updated fans about her new life outside of the US

ODonnells feud with Trump dates back to 2006, when she criticized him on The View for allowing that years Miss USA pageant winner, Tara Conner, to keep her crown after she was caught drinking underage

Known for her harsh war of words with Trump over the years, long before he became president, the mother of five has been even more vocal to hammer his tough talk and policies in interviews and on social media since he started his first term in 2016.

ODonnells feud with Trump dates back to 2006, when she criticized him on The View for allowing that years Miss USA pageant winner, Tara Conner, to keep her crown after she was caught drinking underage.

Trump owned the Miss USA competition at the time and decided to not to strip the 20-year-old models title, stating he believed in second chances and that Conner would be going into rehab.

When Trump heard that ODonnell had mocked Conners conduct, he called her a real loser.

Over the years, Trump has said The Flintstones actress is dumb, desperate, fat, and disgusting both inside and out.

He also said that if he were in charge of The View, which ODonnell was on for a brief time in the 2006-2007 season, he would have fired her.

Id fire Rosie, I mean Id look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers and Id say, "Rosie, youre fired," he said, borrowing his catchphrase from The Apprentice.

Their war of words reignited in 2015, after Trump shocked the world and announced a run for the White House.

During a Republican primary debate in August, moderator Megyn Kelly asked the then-real estate magnate and television personality about his treatment of women.

Youve called women you dont like fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals, Kelly said.

Trump interjected with, Only Rosie ODonnell. The one-liner got a tremendous response from the audience, who filled the auditorium with laughs and cheers.

Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016, later attacked Trump in a debate, pointing out that he had called women nasty names just like Kelly had.

In that September debate, Trump once again name-dropped ODonnell as a defense.

Rosie O’Donnell — I said very tough things to her, and I think everybody would agree that she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her, he said.

In one of more recent critiques she shared a video on TikTok of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky hugging children and picking them up with a smile on his face.

If only the current president had a drop of his caring committed heart #resist #protest #defythem #love #FDT, she wrote in the caption.

In December, ODonnell took to TikTok to bash Time magazine for naming Donald Trump its man of the year for 2024, as reported by The Daily Beast.  

Man of the year, Donald Trump. Well, f**k you Time Magazine. F**k you, seriously, ODonnell said. How about most dangerous man of the year? How about most criminal man of the year? How about the worst president weve ever had… of the year.

Rosie becomes the latest celebrity to have move in the wake of Trump being elected to a second term in office.

The 62-year-old confirmed that the move happened on January 15, just days before President Donald Trumps inauguration 

The star had hinted at the move on March 7, when she posed for a selfie snap behind the wheel  while mentioning how shes having a difficult time driving on a different side of the road

Among the stars to recently move are actor Richard Gere, who sold his $11 million Connecticut home in November and moved to Madrid, Spain, in part to be closer to his wifes in-laws, according to Vanity Fair.

Gere, 75, told the outlet he felt it would be a great adventure to relocate with Alejandra and their sons Alexander, five, and James, four, because I have never lived full-time outside of the United States. 

Former talk show host, comedian, and long-time liberal Ellen DeGeneres, 67, and her wife Portia de Rossi, 52, opted to move to the English countryside in December. 

In a 20th anniversary tribute to her wife DeGeneres wrote how she was so happy we get to travel and explore the world together in a selfie snap taken in the UK.
