After a Politico report claimed Trump was bothered by Sean Spicer being portrayed by a woman (Melissa McCarthy), Twitter users suggested O'Donnell for Bannon.
If Saturday Night Live is looking for its Steve Bannon, Rosie O'Donnell wants them to know she's ready and willing.

"Available — if called I will serve," the actress tweeted, along with three exclamation points, in response to a fan who suggested the actress play the controversial chief strategist to President Donald Trump on the NBC sketch series.

"Alec [Baldwin] has Trump. Melissa has Spice. I would need a few days to prepare. So if called — I will be ready," she replied to another.

This needs to happen. Now. Seriously

She should portray Trump when Baldwin isn't free

 

[Karsticles]

They need to get a full female cast to portray the Trump cabinet.

Anything that upsets him is good.

The Baldwin portrayal is perfect - I don't think it could be improved upon.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Oddly don't want this to happen.

 

[Maximus.]

Yes do it!

 

[gazele]

Cmon SNL, you got this

 

[SpaceWolf]

"Alec [Baldwin] has Trump. Melissa has Spice. I would need a few days to prepare. So if called — I will be ready,"

This is probably the most bad-ass thing any human being has ever said.

 

[Ithil]

Make Trump see Rosie O Donnell in his mind every time he sees Bannon from now on.
There's no one he hates more than Rosie O Donnell.

They need to get a full female cast to portray the Trump cabinet.

Just came here to say that. These weak little white boys are so fragile, being portrayed by women is the most offensive thing SNL could do to them and they'll never be able to admit why.

 

[mugen812]

I wonder if it would have as much impact as McCarthy playing Spicer. Spicer was in the media a lot leading up to it and we got a good sense of his mannerisms. Bannon has stayed out of the limelight for the most part. Either way, I hope this happens.

 

[Mega]

I'm okay with this but I'm not sure why they haven't gotten Bobby Moynihan to do it yet.

 

[Toa TAK]

They need to get a full female cast to portray the Drumpf cabinet.

That would be awesome.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

do it

 

[Regulus Tera]

Why does he hate Rosie anyway? Didn't start following celebrity news until election 2016

 

[ChemicalCutthroat]

The meltdown... I'm already imagining it.

This really needs to happen.

 

[Dude Guy]

Yes do it!

Oddly don't want this to happen.

[Babyshams]

I had said I wanted Rosie to play Trump because nothing would make him more upset.

Her playing Bannon is good too.

 

[Dalek]

The only thing greater than this happening would be to have a camera on Trumps face when he watches it.

 

[Dishwalla]

This is how the war starts. All because of a tv comedy.

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

I'm not even joking: this literally needs to happen for the literal sake of the country. If the reports are true, which they almost certainly are, SNL has achieved incredible power via the immense insecurity of Trump et alii and this could be YUGE.

I had said I wanted Rosie to play Trump because nothing would make him more upset.

Her playing Bannon is good too.

But now the two of them could make out in character. Couldn't do that if both were Trump.

 

[yanipheonu]

DO IT DO IT DO IT

 

[HStallion]

Ohhh man do it. This would be such a huge blow to Bannon's ego. This is a guy who loves getting compared and portrayed as the great villains in fiction whether its Satan or Vadar or what not. Having Rosier portray him is not something he can spin to an image desirable to himself or his followers as of course, these bigoted assholes can't stand women, let alone making fun of them and their image. Go for it SNL!

 

[NandoGip]

Trump is going to send his gestapo to kill Rosie one day probably

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Why does he hate Rosie anyway? Didn't start following celebrity news until election 2016

She gave him some shit back in 2006 and he's never been able to let it go.

 

[Platy]

She gave him some shit back in 2006 and he's never been able to let it go.

Also she is a woman

 

[Fuzzy]

Except Kellyanne Conway should be played by Denis Leary.

 

[FaintDeftone]

Oh man, I really hope SNL makes this happen.

 

[OnPoint]

There's no one he hates more than Rosie O Donnell.

Except secretly himself

 

[HStallion]

HAH this would be incredible. I was thinking Gary Busey myself but I think he's a Trump fan and probably wouldn't do it.

Obviously he should play Melania.

It's all about filling the slots to get Trump's blood boiling.

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

HAH this would be incredible. I was thinking Gary Busey myself but I think he's a Trump fan and probably wouldn't do it.

He's also fucking crazy, so honestly who knows what he'd do.

Leary would be solid though.

 

[thecouncil]

CNN has put together a timeline history for you.

 

[IronRinn]

Yeah, this would be incredible.

 

[minor effort]

I wonder if it's being telegraphed too much beforehand. I think part of the impact of the Melissa McCarthy sketch was that there wasn't weeks of anticipation leading up to it. If everyone's expecting this leading up to it so will Trump himself.

 

[LiK]

Everyone in the administration should be female.

YES

 

[adamantypants]

Somebody in the Reddit thread about this suggested that Baldwin play Trump watching TV, reacting to Rosie playing Trump on TV. I want that so bad now

 

[RinsFury]

Make it happen, SNL. I always liked Rosie, and this would drive cheeto fuck insane.

 

[Fuzzy]

Somebody in the Reddit thread about this suggested that Baldwin play Trump watching TV, reacting to Rosie playing Trump on TV. I want that so bad now

The best of both worlds.

 

[Kor of Memory]

Oh my god, this is goddamn brilliant.

 

[Arkeband]

Rosie has said some boneheaded things but watching Trump and Bannon have a little shit fit would be too funny.

 

[minor effort]

I don't know Rosie O'Donnell's entire public history, but I don't regard her as an existential threat to the republic, so it's easy to pick sides here.

 

[Platy]

See South Park, THIS is how you do Trump Satire

 

[Mineshaft_Gap]

Except Kellyanne Conway should be played by Denis Leary.

I'd prefer a Willem Defoe or Christopher Walken.

 

[Masked Man]

God, this would be so good. I can only imagine how it would make T&B's blood boil!

 

[Horns]

It would be hilarious. Even if she wasn't that good, the bruised egos alone make it worth it.

 

[moltonasty]

I just want this to happen because of how much it will piss off Trump

 

[Incitemaybe]

Beautiful! Let Rosie do this.
