Key Points:

Rosie O'Donnell, guest-hosting on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, has made several critical remarks about President Donald Trump, including nicknames like "Mango Mussolini" and "President Oompa J. Loompa."
On Wednesday, she continued her jabs by referring to Trump as "President Petty Roosevelt" during her opening monologue.
O'Donnell's guest-hosting stint follows a series of guest hosts, including Tiffany Haddish, Ike Barinholtz, and Colman Domingo, with more politically charged monologues expected.
The guest-hosting occurs while Jimmy Kimmel is on vacation, allowing O'Donnell to bring her longtime critical perspective on Trump to the show.
