When Rosie O’Donnell appeared on the No Filter Mamamia podcast and took another swipe at Trump, saying, “I think he’s afraid of smart, informed, strong women… strong women scare him and infuriate him. And I’m one of them.”

Rosie opened up about how isolating and genuinely terrifying the peak of the feud was, especially when Trump became President. She admitted that the constant barrage of online hate took a massive toll on her mental health, making her feel unsafe in her own skin.

However, looking back during the interview, she expressed a sense of peace and clarity. By recognizing that the attacks stemmed from his fear of powerful women who speak their minds, she was able to detach herself from the venom and reclaim her own strength.

The quote quickly went viral on social media, shared alongside the image of the host, Mia Freedman, as a powerful anthem for women standing up to bullying.
