Comedian and longtime Donald Trump nemesis Rosie O’Donnell repeatedly attacked Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) on Twitter Thursday after the congressman defended Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with a Russian attorney in a television interview.
In a series of Twitter posts, O’Donnell called Zeldin a “lying sack of sh*t” and a “moron” whose career is “over.”
“HEY REP LEE ZELDIN – SHUT UP – U SOUND LIKE A MORON – DEFENDING TRUMP – UR CAREER IS OVER,” O’Donnell wrote.
HEY REP LEE ZELDIN – SHUT UP – U SOUND LIKE A MORON – DEFENDING TRUMP – UR CAREER IS OVER @RepLeeZeldin

O’Donnell also tweeted to MSNBC host Katy Tur, requesting that she not invite “a**holes” like Zeldin on her program anymore.
A representative for Zeldin did not immediately return a request for comment. But the congressman sent a fundraising email to supporters Friday morning in which he blasted O’Donnell for her “character assassination” of him.
