O'Donnell, known for her outspoken liberal views, reportedly shared her reasons for leaving the United States—specifically citing her "acute, and chronic" case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). In an interview with an Australian newspaper, she described her escape as a form of "self-preservation," driven by her fear of what watching her country become "pulled apart by a mentally ill man who only serves himself."
This personal anecdote reflects her intense opposition to Donald Trump and highlights how her political stance has shaped her narrative. It appears she views her departure as a way to distance herself from the chaos she perceives to be rooted in Trump's presidency, ostensibly seeking refuge in Australia to continue her comedy career.
