U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday posted on Truth Social that he is giving “serious consideration” to revoking Rosie O’Donnell’s citizenship.
“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. She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!” Trump said on Truth Social. O’Donnell is yet to react to Trump's post.
Can Trump Revoke Rosie O’Donnell’s Citizenship?
Rosie O’Donnell was born in New York and the president cannot revoke the citizenship of a person who is born in the U.S.
According to the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.”
Who Is Rosie O’Donnell?
Rosie O’Donnell was born in New York and is a longtime Trump critic. She settled her family to Ireland earlier this year, saying in a TikTok video that “when it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, that’s when we will consider coming back.”
