It may be time for Rosie to seek help.
Comedian and prominent Trump-critic Rosie O’Donnell sent out a scathing attack on Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) late Tuesday prior to Senate’s vote on the GOP tax bill, which passed early Wednesday.
The former “The View” co-host brought up the senator’s family, asking whether she thought her loved ones are proud of her.
susan – 2 million dollars cash
call if u want to negotiatedo u think your family is proud of u @sennatorcollins
woman – mother – grandmother – sister – daughter
u have betrayed us alldear god
ask for forgiveness
redeem ur soul tomorrow #NOTSEXIST pic.twitter.com/wa0QcMXNk2— ROSIE (@Rosie) December 20, 2017
“Woman, mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, you have betrayed us all,” O’Donnell wrote. “Dear god, ask for forgiveness, redeem your soul tomorrow.”
The tweet featured a photograph of the Maine lawmaker pictured with her family on the day of her father’s 90th birthday.
The comedian closed her message with the hashtag #NOTSEXIST. This may have been a reference to Collins blaming “sexism” for reports that Republican leadership “duped” her into voting “yes” on the tax bill.
Moments earlier, O’Donnell penned a tweet in which she offered Collins and Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) $2 million dollars each if they would break the party line and vote against the tax relief legislation.
so how about this

2 million dollars to senator susan collins

She then opened her offer up to any Republican senator willing to cast a “no” vote.
heres the thing al – i am not looking to give more money to a corrupt system – however – this bill is criminal – i therefore offer 2 million for any GOP senator that votes no – to them personally – or directed to A NON PROFIT OF THEIR CHOICE
no strings attached
DO WHATS RIGHT

O’Donnell acknowledged that accepting a bribe would be illegal, but suggested seeing the Republican lawmakers “indicted” was part of her plan.
it would stop it from passing – then
they all get indicted –
music swells
drumbeatdo u hear the people sing …

One of O’Donnell’s arguments was that GOP senators have been bribed already.
i will HAPPILY pay any GOP senator 2 million dollars
to vote NOthey have been paid
obviously— ROSIE (@Rosie) December 20, 2017
YES DOLL THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED THEY BRIBED CORKER AND COLLINS

In her rant, the comedian claimed democracy would be “done” if the GOP tax plan were to become law.
if this bill passes
democracy is done
raping the nation
in public
with gleeful abandon
gavel man is satan16 hours
and its overon our watch

Both Collins and Flake voted in favor of the bill Wednesday morning.
Offering money to public officials with the intention to influence policy is illegal, which could put O’Donnell in trouble with the law if her tweets can be construed to be serious, rather than sarcastic.
Many twitter users were critical of the celebrity’s apparent bribery attempt.
@Rosie Bribery of a US Senator to sway a vote is a Felony. Lawyer up Rosie!

This is truest amazing. She has lost her mind! This is a felony. Will anything be done?

But she’s a lib. It’ll be touted as a joke. We’ll be mocked for having no sense of humor. Charges will be “investigated” by the FBI and she’ll be exonerated before they interview her not under oath and with no written record.

i hope she suffers the consequences for this…..

Rosie is a nut job. We all already know that.

It’s pretty clear she has genuine mental health problems, and highly likely she’ll end up like Sinead O’Connor, recording Facebook confessions from a motel room in New Jersey.

Apparently, she has way too much money.
