Political Memes

TIL that nobody here knows the difference between Rosie O'Donnell and Roseanne Barr.

Jesus Christ people

These two should’ve duked it out on the lawn for the UFC event. I would’ve watched that.

i never liked her. rosie o'donnell became the white oprah in the late 90s. she was the antidote to all the trashy daytime talk shows that saturated the airwaves at the time. she was pure and whole some. but there was a darkness underneath her everywoman, standup comedian charm.

she spoke the language of fearful, boring, white suburban moms; these were the type of moms who cut off their children if they were gay or smoked a doobie. she was never really funny or charming unless you spent a lot of time at the applebee's happy hours and giggled when your male co-worker referenced the macarena in a lame joke that was 3 or 4 years out of fashion, but she could fool you.

her rise to fame and fortune is uniquely american in a very bad way. she doesn't deserve celebration, only ridicule. lots of people dislike trump, at least 80% of the internet does.

Did she merge with Bannon?

I didn't recognize this person and people in the comments seem skeptical about this person:

I looked her up, i believe this is Rosie O'Donnell, comedian turned tv show presenter.

Relevant bits according to wiki on politics, ideology and Trump.

O'Donnell came out as a lesbian in 2002. An outspoken advocate for lesbian rights and gay adoption issues, she is a foster and adoptivemother.

From 2006 to 2007, O'Donnell endured a controversial run as the moderator on the daytime talk show The View, which included a public feud with future president Donald Trumpand on-air disputes regarding the Bush administration's policies with the Iraq War.

In early 2025, shortly after Trump was inaugurated for a second presidential term, O'Donnell moved to Ireland and applied for Irish citizenship through descent.[2] In July 2025, Trump threatened to revoke her U.S. birthright citizenship.[3]

After the Columbine shootings, O'Donnell became an outspoken supporter of gun control

O'Donnell sometimes provoked debate, at one time stating "radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam."[40] On the February 24, 2003, episode of Phil Donahue's talk show, O'Donnell referred to the sexual abuse scandal in the Catholic archdiocese of Boston resulting in $157 million awarded to 983 claimants,[41] stating "I hope the Catholic Church gets sued until the end of time. Maybe, you know, we can melt down some of the gold toilets in the Pope's Vatican and pay off some of the lawsuits because, the whole tenet of living a Christ-like life, has been lost in Catholicism."[42]

In December 2006, O'Donnell criticized Donald Trump for holding a press conference to reinstate Miss USA Tara Conner, who had violated pageant guidelines, accusing him of using her scandal to "generate publicity for the Miss USA Pageant" (to which he owned the rights) by announcing he was giving her a second chance.[58][59] O'Donnell commented that due to Trump's multiple marital affairs and questionable business bankruptcies, he was not a moral authority for young people in America. She stated, "Left the first wife, had an affair. Left the second wife, had an affair – but he's the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America."[59]In response, Trump began a "vicious" mass media blitz in which he appeared on various television shows, either in person or by phone, threatening to sue O'Donnell (he never did).[60]He called her names, insulted her by saying he would "send one of my friends to pick up her girlfriend [Kelli] and I think it would be easy", and claimed that Barbara Walters regretted hiring her.[60][61][62][63]

Over her career, O'Donnell has developed a reputation for raising funds and her own philanthropy to charitable causes. In May 1996, Warner Books advanced O'Donnell $3 million to write a memoir.[116] She used the money to seed her For All Kids Foundation to help institute national standards for day care across the country.[116]

Since 1997, Rosie's For All Kids Foundation, overseen by Elizabeth Birch, has awarded more than $22 million in Early Childhood Care and Education program grants to over 900 nonprofit organizations.[128] On October 30, 2006, she was honored by the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.[129] "It's our privilege to be honoring and hosting Rosie," said NYSPCC president David Stack in a statement.

O'Donnell is a Democrat.[143] She has contributed funds to multiple political campaigns, including to the campaign to elect Senator Doug Jones of Alabama.[144][145]

Pretty sure anti vaxxers brought back measles but I’m not against blaming trump for everything

and to think kathy griffins career got cancelled just by showing a faux severed head of trump.

She's not my favorite, but she really got taken for a ride back then. They smeared the hell out of her for speaking out.

Only just realizing Rosanne Barr and Rosie O'Donnell are different people....

I'm not much a fan of either, but I really despise the one of them (Rosanne)

Republicans brought back fascism. Don't let them claim otherwise once Trump croaks.
