They always say that Christmas time can be pretty depressing. However if we were to rank holiday-induced emotional turmoil by reflecting on the year that is ending, 2017 may just take the cake. Our president alone made this year unbearably awful, but Rosie O'Donnell knows that our Cheeto in Chief didn't act alone. He had plenty of cronies, like Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, by his side when pushing through harmful legislation.

The outspoken Trump opponent responded to Ryan's Christmas message Sunday, telling the Congressman "don't talk about Jesus after what u just did to our nation - u will go straight to hell u screwed up fake altar boy." She then finished her tweet by referencing Judas, the disciple who betrayed Jesus, using the hashtag #JUDASmuch

In addition to taking on Trump at every turn, the actress has been a vocal opponent of the Republican tax plan, even offering to pay two Senators, Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) to not vote for the legislation.

Although her offer was turned down, and she was publicly attempting to bribe elected officials, O'Donnell is determined to speak up in the fight against the GOP. While she definitely did not go about it in the right way, her persistent outrage is admirable in the fight against normalizing policies and political figures advocated for and supported by the big orange tyrant.

Ryan has yet to respond to Rosie's comments.
