Rather than take a pause during a tragedy, failed far-left comedian Rosie O’Donnell immediately tried to blame the horrific violence on Donald Trump supporters.
O’Donnell took to social media to falsely claim the transgender Minneapolis Catholic school shooter was a “Republican, MAGA person, white supremacist.”
O’Donnell peddled this unhinged smear despite the fact that the trans-shooter had “kill Donald Trump” scrawled across one of his gun magazines.
Immediately following the tragedy, O’Donnell took to social media and shared, “What do you know? [The shooter] was a white guy, Republican, MAGA person. White supremacist.”
Rosie O’Donnell apologizes after falsely identifying the Minneapolis Catholic school shooter as a Trump supporter tied to “MAGA.” Misstep sparks outrage.

The shooter, who identified as trans, was confirmed to be Robert/RobinWestman.
By Sunday, O’Donnell walked back her vile remarks and was forced to admit that the reality did not align with her agenda.
“I knew a lot of you were very upset about the video I made before I went away for a few days.”
“You are right. I did not do my due diligence before I made that emotional statement, and I said things about the shooter that were incorrect.
“I assumed, like most shooters, they followed a standard MO and had standard, you know, feelings of… you know, NRA-loving kind of gun people,” O’Donnell added.
“Anyway, the truth is I messed up, and when you mess up, you fess up. I’m sorry. This is my apology video and I hope it’s enough.”
