Rosie O'Donnell confident Donald Trump won’t be reelected, blames ‘The Apprentice’ creator for his fame
Fox News ^ | 4/21/2020 | Tyler McCarthy

Rosie O’Donnell is confident that Donald Trump will not win reelection in the 2020 presidential race.

The 58-year-old former talk show host sat down for a remote interview on comedian Marc Maron’s “WTF” podcast where they discussed her long and storied career in comedy and television. Eventually, the conversation turned to politics and O’Donnell’s years-long feud with Donald Trump.

During the episode, Maron noted that seeing Trump not only get elected in 2016 but still have support going into 2020 after his handling of the coronavirus pandemic has made him question whether or not “people are fundamentally good.”

When he threw the question to his guest, O’Donnell explained that she believes people are going to step up and vote Trump out of office.

“I do, I do believe that. I have to believe it,” she replied. “I think November we’re going to be a landslide and take him out, that’s what I have to believe. I firmly believe that the heart of the nation is bigger than his mental illness and people will rise to the occasion and vote him out.”(snip)

According to Yahoo Entertainment, O’Donnell hosted the 2002 Season 4 reunion of “Survivor.” Apparently, Trump was on hand to discuss a different reality show with creator Mark Burnett that would eventually become the biggest bump to his profile, “The Apprentice.”

"I blame Mark Burnett for the vast majority of the problems this nation has, coming to terms with who he is in actuality," O’Donnell explained. "I feel Mark Burnett is directly, personally responsible."

Was Rosie munching on a clam flavored donut when she made this proclamation?

Trump got “The Apprentice” show because he was famous. I knew of him and liked the show (I’m pretty sure I watched every season), but I didn’t like Trump all that much on the show.

BTW, shortly after “The Apprentice” came out, Mark Cuban thought he’d get in on the reality show business with a show called “The Benefactor.” It pretty much bombed.

Hollywood hates Mark Burnett and his wife Roma Downey because they are committed Christians and it drives Hollywood crazy.

I once saw Ivana with a young Ivanka at a pet store on the upper East Side of Manhattan..... They were there to buy a dog..... I remember Ivana telling Ivanka that dachshunds don’t have good temperament for children.... I still remember Ivana’s purple shoes..... This was probably around 1984

I am confident that Rosie will never be attractive or intelligent.

>>“During the episode, Maron noted that seeing Trump not only get elected in 2016 but still have support going into 2020 after his handling of the coronavirus pandemic has made him question whether or not “people are fundamentally good.”

Democrats interviewed on the street said that they could accept 1,000,000 dead Americans if it means Trump leaving office. If the offer was “no more dead/Trump Stays” vs “1,000,000 dead/Trump Leaves”.

Democrats are fundamentally bad. Party of the KKK, Jim Crow, and abortion.

[[[Hah. Trump’s fame did not start with “The Apprentice.” I first heard of him in the mid-1980s, when he made headlines with his real estate speculation and his real-life soap opera with Ivana. I think most other Americans knew who he was as well, before “reality shows” became popular.]]]

I went to school with a guy who practically worshipped him back in 1983. He travelled in those circles as a limo driver in NYC. Around the USFL days. Trump has been around a loooong time.

Is anyone listening to fat Rosie O’Donnell when she says Donald Trump will not be re-elected?

The disinfectant comment will hurt him bad. I am getting it from people who are generally apolitical.

All I can do is dust it off but most are hung up on it.

Plus these people are listening to the “we should have closed the borders in November” argument.

Just beware.... it’s not in the bag.

I remember Trump back in the late 70's.

Believe it or not, if you look back at old tapes of the NBC Morning Show (or whatever it was called), they had some broadcasts from Trump Plaza.

I bet she licked his shoes, like all the other scum that ‘liked’ him before he ran for president.
