Rosie O ’Donnell in Trump's attack:" The son is autistic, "then brakes
The case breaks out after a few tweets in which the famous American actress, who has never hidden her dislike for the new US president, insinuated that little Barron was suffering from autism. "I didn't want to spark another controversy," she defended herself
"I'm not mad at Trump's son. Nor did I want to unleash another case. ' She defends herself and
now apologizes to American actress Rosie O'Donnell, who in some messages on social networks had insinuated that Trump's ten-year-old son, Barron, may be suffering from autism. The thousands of comments unleashed with her tweets prompted her to "retract": but now the "omelette" is done.
The offending tweets
The case was raised in particular by two messages that the US actress, known for not having great sympathy for the newly elected president, had published last week. In the first, you wondered: Is Barron Trump autistic? If so, it would be a great opportunity to talk about the problem ", he wrote, linking to a video posted on Youtube in which some strange attitudes of the child were highlighted and the public was encouraged not to bully him and make fun of him for his behavior, which would derive just from a serious illness would not be habits. In the second message, written the next day, the host invited some symptoms that sounded familiar to her in Trump's son, aspects that may not be noticed if she is not used to the disease.
She recognizes them because her daughter Dakota, who is 3 and a half years old, was diagnosed with autistic attitudes and therefore she entered a world she did not know. In the video, which has had millions of views, for example, some mannerisms of Barron were highlighted, captured the few times he appeared on TV, as evidence that he could be autistic: the hands that move in an irregular way and that do not touch, or some movements in the chair. A tweet that ended with the hashtag #NoShame autism, no to the shame of autism, or an invitation not to be ashamed of a serious disease that can be addressed. Both messages caused a barrage of merciless comments against the actress, accused of wanting to attack the president.
The reverse
Hence the decision for the presenter, who is an LGBT rights activist and who had threatened to leave the country Ser Trump had been elected, to apologize and clarify that she has no reason to resent the Trump son, who only wanted emphasize that it is important to pay due attention to the symptoms of problem children. "But the theme had nothing to do with Donald, although I admit he pisses me off in a thousand ways," Rosie said.
