Rosie O’Donnell said she will only return to the United States after moving out of the country to escape Donald Trump’s second term on two conditions. The only way for it to be “safe to come back with my child,” she added, is if “this administration is completely finished and hopefully held accountable for their crimes.” O’Donnell spoke to Variety Friday about her recent appearances in And Just Like That… and Hacks, where she said the possibility of appearing in other U.S. shows is unlikely while Trump is still in office. “I was supposed to do, right before I left, an episode of Poker Face,” she said. “I’m hoping that I’ll be able to do that, although I don’t know, with the current political climate.” O’Donnell’s recent guest spots were filmed before Trump was elected in November last year, which prompted the star to move to Dublin, Ireland with her 12-year-old before he was inaugurated. “I knew after reading Project 2025 that if Trump got in, it was time for me and my non-binary child to leave the country,” she told CNN in April. Until Trump is out, O’Donnell said Friday, “I’m not going to push” to film on any U.S. sets.
