Rosie O’Donnell, the former American comedian, has made headlines with her recent comments about the upcoming 2024 election. Now living in Ireland, O’Donnell appeared on Irish TV’s The Late Late Show, where she expressed her belief that Elon Musk may have played a role in "stealing" the election for Donald Trump.
During her interview with host Patrick Kielty, O’Donnell shared her concerns about the integrity of the U.S. election process. She pointed out that, for the first time in American history, a president won every swing state while being closely tied to Musk, who she claims "owns and runs the internet." This connection, she argued, raises questions about potential interference in the election results across various states.
O’Donnell’s remarks included a call for investigation into the election outcomes, suggesting that something unusual may have occurred on election night. She contrasted the lack of large crowds at Trump events with the significant support shown for Kamala Harris, expressing her hope that the reasons behind these election results would be thoroughly examined.
This interview marks O’Donnell’s first television appearance since her move to Ireland, which she announced earlier this year. In a video posted on social media, she explained her decision to leave the U.S., citing her deep concerns about the political climate and the impact of Trump’s presidency on American democracy. She expressed sorrow over the current state of affairs and urged her followers to work towards positive change.
O’Donnell’s comments have sparked discussions about election integrity and the influence of social media platforms on political outcomes. As she continues to engage in political discourse from abroad, her statements reflect a growing concern among some Americans about the future of democracy in the country.
