A reporter covering the Wednesday White House meeting of President Trump and Taoiseach of Ireland Micheál Martin asked the prime minister why he allowed American comedian Rosie O’Donnell to move to the country.

“Ireland is known for very happy, fun loving people,” Brain Glenn, a reporter for the conservative digital media company Real America’s Voice, began a question to Martin. “Why in the world would you let Rosie O’Donnell move to Ireland?”

“Thank you, I like that question,” Trump interjected as Martin nervously laughed while seated next to the president in the Oval Office. “Did you know you have Rosie O’Donnell? Do you know who she is?”

Martin did not respond before Trump added, “You’re better off not knowing.”

O’Donnell, a longtime critic of Trump’s, said this week she has moved to Ireland, citing U.S. politics as her reason for leaving the country.

“It’s been heartbreaking to see what’s happening politically and hard for me personally as well. The personal is political, as we all know,” she said.

Trump famously blasted O’Donnell during a Republican primary debate in 2015 when he was pressed about offensive comments about women by then-Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly.
