Rosie O'Donnell's therapist told her to 'detach' from Trump for two days -- she lasted only hours

Rosie O’Donnell’s therapist advised her to step away from posting about President Trump for a mere two days. However, the comedian’s resolve quickly faltered, and within hours, she was back on social media, chastising her long-standing adversary.

A recent article in the Washington Post highlights O’Donnell’s intense preoccupation with the former president, bringing to light her decision to relocate to Ireland just days before Trump’s inauguration. The piece explores her new life abroad and her continued engagement in political discourse, particularly her frequent online critiques of Trump.

As recounted in the article, O’Donnell had made a promise to her therapist just before Thanksgiving to refrain from discussing or posting about Trump for 48 hours. Unfortunately, her commitment to this digital hiatus was short-lived.

The 63-year-old comedian admitted her social media cleanse lasted only a few hours. The turning point came when she discovered Trump had reportedly insulted Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey on Air Force One, calling her “quiet, piggy” as she questioned him over his opposition to releasing the remaining Epstein files.

Incensed by the incident, O’Donnell took to social media, expressing her outrage to CNN’s Jim Acosta. She voiced her dismay at the White House press corps for what she described as allowing Trump to verbally “rape” a reporter, underscoring her continued fervent opposition to the former president.

O’Donnell told the outlet that her worn-out therapist Jennifer Kopetic pleaded with her during a recent session: “Roseann, you’ve got to detach. You’ve got to disconnect.”

Days later, she told her 1.2 million Instagram followers she’d “try again” to ignore Trump, but that second attempt fell apart just as fast.

Friends and family have grown concerned about her inability to unplug from politics, but her brother Eddie told the outlet that her move to Ireland was “the best decision she’s made.”

“Still, when you have a phone and a fixation, it can be hard to totally disengage,” WaPo reporter Geoff Edgers noted in his piece, “Rosie O’Donnell’s life in exile.”

The outlet noted that in Trump’s first term, O’Donnell churned out more than 200 hostile digital portraits of Trump — tagged with insults like “Moron,” “Loser,” and “Liar” — manically obsessive behavior the reporter said helped drive her out of the country.

O’Donnell moved overseas to the Dublin suburb of Howth with her 12-year-old non-binary child in January in response to Trump’s victory against Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.

She called the move a “necessity” to protect her family, saying her “heart couldn’t take the pain” of what Trump was planning — or what he has already done.

Tensions between the high-profile pair stretch back nearly two decades, starting in 2006 when O’Donnell criticized Trump while co-hosting “The View.”

Their feud reignited in July when Trump took to Truth Social, threatening to strip the Long Island-born comedian of her US citizenship and labeling her a “Threat to Humanity.”

The actress quickly fired back with a flurry of Instagram posts ripping Trump as a “dangerous old soulless man” who craves “loyalty” and picturing him with notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. 

The 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution grants citizenship to anyone born on US soil.

In October, O’Donnell revealed she was seeking Irish citizenship.
