Ellen DeGeneres weighed in with a simple “Good for you @rosie,” showing support while recalling her own brief move to the UK after Trump’s re-election. Both O’Donnell and DeGeneres, as LGBTQ+ icons, see Trump’s actions as a broader threat to civil liberties. Their relocations reflect a growing trend among public figures alarmed by the political climate. Trump’s threat has drawn legal scrutiny, as revoking citizenship for criticism is unconstitutional.
Critics argue this move reflects dangerous authoritarian impulses. This latest clash highlights how personal feuds can become political flashpoints, underscoring the deepening divide between celebrity activism and political power in the U.S.
