AFTER she was blasted by Donald Trump in the presidential debate, Rosie O’Donnell couldn’t believe her luck when she ran into his daughter, Ivanka.

ROSIE O’Donnell says she met the daughter of her tormentor-in-chief, Donald Trump, Wednesday night in Manhattan.

“@IvankaTrump in a city of 8 million — we meet face 2 face — I thank u 4 listening — mother 2 mother — on this new years week — my best 2 u,” O’Donnell said on Twitter, referring to the Jewish New Year.

The New York Post reports that the apparently accidental run-in took place at Nobu on 57th Street at 9pm (12am AEDT), O’Donnell claimed.

Ivanka Trump has not confirmed the meeting with her father’s long-running adversary, nor has the Republican presidential candidate.

The feud between the two appears to have sparked in 2006 when O’Donnell lashed out at the mogul for not firing a Miss USA accused of using drugs, underage drinking and sexual indiscretions.

O’Donnell, then a co-host of The View, lashed out at Trump — a man who she was close enough to at one point that she attended his wedding — for not being “a self-made man” and for being a “snake oil salesman.”

“[He] left the first wife — had an affair. [He] had kids both times, but he’s the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America. Donald, sit and spin, my friend,” she said at the time.

Trump replied by calling O’Donnell “a real loser” and warned: Rosie will rue the words she said … I’ll most likely sue her for making those false statements — and it’ll be fun. Rosie’s a loser. A real loser. I look forward to taking lots of money from my nice fat little Rosie.”

During the late September presidential debate, Hillary Clinton referred to the war of words, saying: “This is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs.”

The mogul responded, “Some of it I said to somebody who has been very vicious to me, Rosie O’Donnell.”

He added, “I said very tough things to her and I think everybody would agree she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her.”

That night, September 26, O’Donnell emphatically tweeted: “HE WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT.”
