Rosie O'Donnell is applying for Irish citizenship amid her ongoing feud with President Donald Trump.

In an interview with the U.K.'s Daily Telegraph , the 63-year-old comedian explained she is putting herself in "self-imposed (political exile)" in Ireland after she first moved there in January of this year.

"I am applying and about to be approved for my Irish citizenship as my grandparents were from there and that’s all you need," she told the outlet. "It will be good to have my Irish citizenship, especially since Trump keeps threatening to take away mine."

"What great news for America!" White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital about the news.
