Rosie O'Donnell (actor & comedian) joins Chris Cuomo from her new home in Ireland to explain why she left America after Trump's second election victory. O'Donnell shares how Trump's first presidency led her into depression and unhealthy habits, prompting her move abroad for "self-preservation" and to create a better environment for herself and her autistic child.

She discusses the cultural differences between Ireland and America, including how the Irish reject celebrity worship and embrace their history of fighting oppression. O'Donnell reveals she can finally be "a normal person" for the first time since becoming famous, with older Irish men buying her Guinness instead of cursing at her in CVS. The conversation touches on the No Kings Day protests on June 14th that gave her hope, her concerns about American extremism, and why she believes billionaires and "patriarchal fascist" leaders are destroying the country she still loves despite choosing to leave it.
