Rosie O’Donnell shared her thoughts Tuesday on Kanye West’s recent comments about President Donald Trump and other issues.
“He [Kanye West] needs a doctor asap,” the 56-year-old comedian tweeted Tuesday to her million followers, in response to a tweet from one of her followers that claimed West was having a “public manic mental breakdown.”

Kanye is having a public manic mental breakdown (and I’m not speaking lightly) but sadly, no one loves him enough to intervene because they bottom line value fame over wellness.

The comedian didn’t explain if her comments were in response to what the rapper said during his appearance on TMZ earlier in the day when West said slavery seemed like a “choice.”
You don’t have to agree with trump but the mob can’t make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don’t agree with everything anyone does. That’s what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought.
