Actress Rosie O’Donnell stated during an interview on CNN's 'The Lead with Jake Tapper' that she does not expect President Donald Trump to complete his term. O'Donnell cited what she perceives as cognitive decline in the president, referencing a recent incident where he mistakenly referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as 'Putin' during a NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey. She compared Trump's mistakes to those one might forgive at a family gathering but would not allow an elderly relative to handle sharp objects due to safety concerns. O'Donnell also mentioned another instance where Trump referred to Iran as the 'Islamic Republic of Japan.' Furthermore, she criticized the Democratic Party for not treating the current political situation as an emergency, claiming that 'fascism has already arrived' under Trump's administration. These comments reflect an ongoing conflict between O'Donnell and Trump, who has previously made derogatory remarks about her on social media. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker recently made similar comments regarding Trump's mental fitness, which the White House dismissed as a 'desperate' attempt to gain attention.
