“Last month, O'Donnell apologized to Melania Trump for flooding social media with comments about the former model's son, Barron, possibly having autism. “O'Donnell tweeted out a video back on November 21 that suggested 10-year-old Barron was autistic, writing: 'Barron Trump autistic? If so - what an amazing opportunity to bring attention to the AUTISM epidemic.’ “Soon after the video, which made a case for Barron having autism by pointing out his behavior was consistent with the condition, began to spread. “To make that point, footage taken mainly from Trump's election victory speech, was used and showed him yawning, inexpressive and clapping in a way that Rosie agreed was indicative of his autism. “As thousands pointed out to O'Donnell, Barron had been forced to stay up until 3am that particular evening and his behavior was, in fact, more in keeping with a tired schoolboy rather than an autistic one. “After learning of the video Melania shot off a legal letter that name-checked O'Donnell, who responded soon after with her social media apology. 'I apologize to @MELANIATRUMP - i was insensitive in my RT - i am sorry for the pain i caused - it was not my intent - i am truly sorry,' wrote O'Donnell on Twitter.”Sure, Rosie. Tigers never change, but only variegate, their stripes.
“And on December 12, the comedian wrote a powerful poem called One Week about the current state of America. (Daily Mail). “O'Donnell published the poem on her website detailing her thoughts and emotions in the wake of the election of Trump. 'I won't perform now; I can't; I hate what has become of US; I must watch,' she wrote. "The actress also played a role in encouraging government leaders to investigate Russia's interference in the US election and just last week President Barack Obama expelled 35 Russian diplomats from America. “Obama labeled the diplomats 'persona non grata' and gave them 72 hours to leave the US.”For his part, O’Donnell’s hatred twin Michael Moore is readying his tuxedo, (blue jeans, plaid shirt and baseball cap) for Trump inauguration festivities. Motor Mouth Moore will try his best to bring some of the grunting jackals loudly demonstrating outside the White House, inside where the new president is. Whatever happens should the jackals make their way inside, happens. But should violence be the result, Moore will bellow NOT ME! when the finger of blame gets pointed. If only the leaders of hate could be held under house arrest inside their lofty mansions until January 20 has come and gone. But when out and out hatred inciting is your professional calling, keeping you in pocket money, the show must go on.
