Trump nemesis, Broadway stars join protest at White House

Actress, comedian and TV personality Rosie O'Donnell, who has had a decade-long feud with Trump, joined about 30 singers and musicians in rousing renditions of stage staples including "Everybody Rejoice," from "The Wiz," and songs from "Les Miserables" and other productions.
The presence of Emmy Award winner O'Donnell, 56, lent star quality to the series of protests outside the mansion's gates, where resisters to Trump's presidency have gathered for more than three straight weeks of rowdy nightly demonstrations.
