And Just Like That, Trump Wants to Take Away Rosie O'Donnell's Citizenship
Briefly

Trump has provocatively suggested that he may revoke Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship, framing it as a matter of national interest. This raises questions about the implications for birthright citizenship in the U.S., particularly based on personal grievances. Legal experts assert that the president cannot strip citizenship from a native-born citizen, reinforcing the principle that governance is chosen by the people. O'Donnell has responded fiercely, challenging Trump's character and authority, and emphasizing her moral opposition to his actions.
Trump stated, "Because of the fact that Rosie O'Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship." This statement raised questions about the erosion of birthright citizenship in the U.S. and the implications of showbiz conflicts affecting legal matters.
University of Virginia School of Law professor Amanda Frost remarked, "The president has no authority to take away the citizenship of a native-born U.S. citizen. In short, we are a nation founded on the principle that the people choose the government; the government cannot choose the people."
Rosie O'Donnell has openly criticized Trump, stating on Instagram, "the president of the usa has always hated the fact that i see him for who he is - a criminal con man sexual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself." She further characterized him as "a dangerous old soulless man with dementia who lacks empathy compassion and basic humanity.
