Irish eyes shouldn’t be smiling over Ireland’s newest celebrity resident, Rosie O’Donnell.
“Good luck, that’s all I’m going to say. . . . Don’t try to send her back to us, OK?” comedian Terrence Williams said in an Instagram video to his close to 1 million followers, many of whom agreed.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with all of Ireland,” one person quipped, ahead of St. Patrick’s Day on March 17.
“God please Bless Ireland they sure gonna need it!” another agreed, while another wrote, “They don’t deserve this.”
“Oh those poor Irish. Not enough whiskey to deal with that,” someone else else chimed in.
The former “View” host — who’s famously feuded with Donald Trump for close to two decades — announced Tuesday on TikTok that she moved to Ireland on Jan. 15, right before his inauguration — carrying out the threat she made before Trump was first elected in 2016.
The mom of five left the country with her 12-year-old daughter, Dakota, whom she adopted with her late ex-wife Michelle Rounds, and said although she misses her other children and her friends, she will only consider moving back “when it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America.”
The day after her announcement, Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin visited Trump in the White House and right-wing pundit Brian Glenn asked Martin, “Why in the world would you let Rosie O’Donnell move to Ireland?! I think she is going to lower your happiness levels!”
Trump agreed, saying, “That’s true,” and then asked Martin if he knew who O’Donnell was, noting, “You’re better off not knowing!”
Williams, 37, was raised in the Oklahoma City foster care system and in 2019 met Trump when he was invited to the White House for the Young Black Leadership Summit. The visit led the comic, who has been back at the White House since, to pen the memoir “From The Foster House To The White House.”
O’Donnell consistently hurled insults at Trump, calling him a “snake-oil salesman” who “will never be president” and he has slammed her as “crude, rude, obnoxious and dumb” — and she’s expressed that his taunts took their toll.
During his 2016 campaign, Trump commented on O’Donnell’s first threat of relocation.
At the time, he told Fox News, “If me winning means Rosie O’Donnell moves to Canada, I’d be doing a great service to our country!”
