Washed-up leftist actress Rosie O’Donnell has demanded that the Electoral College be abolished in the wake of President Donald Trump’s landslide victory, apparently forgetting or ignoring the fact that Trump also won the popular vote.
O’Donnell has a long history of Trump Derangement Syndrome, and it appears that it is only getting worse. In a video posted to TikTok soon after Trump was declared the winner of the 2024 presidential election, the leftist actress screeched about the Electoral College being “racist” and demanded that it be abolished.
“And how ’bout we get rid of the Electoral College? Anybody like that? Anyone? I’m not so sure anymore,” she said while apparently suffering from the flu.
Democrats like O’Donnell have been calling for the abolishment of the Electoral College after every single presidential election that Democrats have lost for decades now. However, O’Donnell is one of the only ones still calling for it after Trump’s victory, as the majority of them are actually educated enough on the election results to know that Trump also won the popular vote by nearly five million votes.
She went on to declare: “It’s a popular vote, that’s what we need to do. Who gets the most votes wins — one vote, one person. No racist math in the equation.”
Rosie O’Donnell finally breaks her silence after Trump’s landslide victory; suggests getting rid of the Electoral College vote.

Social media users were quick to respond to the video by pointing out two things: first, that Trump also won the popular vote, and second, the fact that the Electoral College protects smaller states from being under the authoritarian boot of radical leftists in just a small number of deep-blue cities.
This is why, dummy. All those commies in the blue have no right to decide who the president will be over the vast majority of red areas. And Trump won the popular vote too. What else ya got? pic.twitter.com/5FvUHMtQu3

“Rosie O’Donnell wants to get rid of the Electoral College now that Donald Trump won the presidency again. She wants to go with popular vote. Our founders wanted to avoid mob rule for a reason. Also, Trump won the popular vote this time in addition to the EC. Sorry Rosie!” wrote popular X user Paul A. Szypula.

Trump won on Tuesday evening with a staggering 312 electoral votes, though that includes Nevada and Arizona, which haven’t been officially called yet as of Thursday despite Trump winning clear victories in both states. He also won over 73 million votes compared to Vice President Kamala Harris’ 68.9 million votes.
