Rosie ODonnell thanks Trump in Kimmel monologue
Rosie O'Donnell kicked off her second night of guest-hosting "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" with another nod to Donald Trump.
Rosie O'Donnell made her second appearance as guest-host for Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday, and once again took the opportunity to address Donald Trump. The comedian and actor, who has a history of conflict with the current U.S. president, began the show by discussing the new Broadway musical Cats: The Jellicle Ball and expressing excitement over the launch of the Women's Professional Baseball League. However, O'Donnell couldn't resist a direct shout-out to Trump.
In a surprising twist, she remarked, "This has been kind of a strange experience for me because all of a sudden I'm re-famous. I'm back in the spotlight, all thanks to President Oompa J. Loompa, who is watching us this evening from inside a catering cart." O'Donnell then added, "You know I couldn't have done it without you, sweetie.
You brought me back, just like you did with fascism and the measles." Interested in more film, TV, and review news? Sign up for Mashable’s Top Stories newsletter or get push alerts directly on your device.
