I'm not aware of it because I'm not following it closely. It is and should be a trivial story not treated as the #1 hot topic by major news outlets.

Roseanne could or should make the case that the tweet was the result of mental illness, if she does indeed suffer from bipolar disorder among other things. That should get half the progressive haters off her back.

His flaws were well known. People voted for him in spite of them. Trump is the best thing to happen to society in the past 20 years. People are actually having more frank dialogue than ever before and pushing back on PC culture into the hole in belongs - something gravely needed. And he's getting shit done in office.
I realize you are just trolling.

But yeah, Trump is the best thing to happen to the USA in the past 20 years. People have now realized just how much prejudice, intolerance and hate still exists in the hearts of many Americans. That hate groups are alive and thriving - ignoring them didn't mean they were gone. Americans now realize just how easy it is for a charismatic man to manipulate the American public with fear mongering and populist rhetoric. And just how broken and self-serving the American political system really is.

All of this will give Political Correctness the boost it much needs. It's not okay to insult your fellow countryman based on his colour or religious beliefs. It's not okay to lie and lie and lie for the sake of personal gain or ego. It's not okay to allow fear or lack of knowledge to drive your decisions.

America needed to see that a truly terrible businessman and political leader could indeed become POTUS - sh*t leaders aren't limited to Syria, Iraq, Philippines, etc.

So the bottom line is you are uninformed, but still chose to phrase your opinions as though they were based on facts. NP, please take a moment to verify what I'm telling you is indeed fact, then repost admitting most of what you said above was inaccurate. I look forward to reading your new views as to Roseanne's situation. You may also want to re-review your comments on ABC too - many of those are equally inaccurate.

Should not be treated as #1? Fact is, it's one of the biggest stories in the last 24 hours for good reason. Her reboot received among the highest rating for a sitcom in the last few years. People love the characters and many of the actors. Roseanne had a great platform for combining her humour and political beliefs as well as allowing the other actors to do the same. And she blew it ....

Do your research, there is only rumours that she has mental disorders. Let's wait for the facts. However being bipolar does not make you racist.

All true. The first episode of the reboot was a little rough, not because of the overt political messaging, but because of the usual first-episode stiffness of the actors. Each episode has gotten better and better. There was still political messaging and right-leaning values being expressed, but done with humour and sincerity. The show would have been a long term hit IMHO.

I've seen several interviews and tweets from some of the other actors in the last 24 hours. They have a right to their opinions and I'm not defending what Roseanne said, but DJ (for example) was shooting his mouth off about how the show was a platform for the various actors views and Roseanne spoiled that. Fair enough, but it was because of Roseanne that they had that platform and were allowed to express their views without being censored by her.

Situation sucks.

The situation sucks donkey balls. Rosanne's show wasn't a piece of trite, it dealt with real world problems that the working poor face. the last episode dealt with opiate addiction, before that hatred toward Muslims.

As Frankenstein's Monster would say, Rosanne baaad, Tom Cruise gooooood.

Rosanne gets banned for being insensitive, cultist slave monger Tom Cruise continues to make films....cultists John Travolta and Kelly Preston commit infanticide and no investigation. Rosanne may be insensitive but how does a mother allow her flesh and blood to die horribly.

WAKE UP MOTHERFUCKERS.

Agreed! Don't get me started on Travolta. Hollywood is full of hypocrites.

I admit I've very much prejudice against a certain segment of society when they get behind the wheel. Normally smart and capable people become completely blind to everything around them, can't follow the rules of the road, don't use common sense, divine left lane, park illegally .... true friggin menaces. F*ckin pick-up drivers should all be shot.

He spoke simple language that his base can understand and it highlights the inability of Trump and any (not all) of his racist supporters to recognise racism from valid criticism.

Besides Trump's predictable self serving comments - I liked some of the other headlines I'm reading.

"Roseanne blames Ambien for rant"

"Ambien maker: 'Racism is not a known side effect'"
LOVED the rely from Ambien. Best fucking come back line to date so far. Lol

Ambien Continues To Be Abused And Is Used To Commit Horrifying Acts Of Violence

Who knew that Ambien, that lovely little pill that puts so many people into a syrupy thick sleep, could cause so many people to have drug-induced freakouts? Crimes committed on Ambien aren’t like other drug crimes. Most of the assaults, accidental murders, and submarine arsons that people who are high on the world’s favorite sleep drug commit are clouded with a miasma of uncertainty. Similar to stories of people getting high on flakka and other designer drugs, Ambien users who commit crimes rarely remember doing anything other than going to bed and waking up in police custody. These Ambien horror stories are all straight out of your worst nightmares, and will definitely have you rethinking your prescription drug intake.

Not all Ambien crimes occur after people take the sleep drug; many of them concern creeps using the sleep aid to roofie someone before raping them, hoping that the hallucinatory side effects of the drug will remove the victim's memories of the crime. Everything on this list of the worst things people have done on Ambien is straight out of the horror section of your own brain. If you’re just judging by the stories included here, when people take Ambien, they murder their families, kill innocent strangers, and become locked in an elaborate nightmare scenario where they’re constantly living through a plane crash. Hopefully, there are a few people who are actually getting some sleep when they pop an Ambien at the end of the day.

it's funny looking liberals shilling for big pharma whose drugs are linked to crimes like murder

Trump probably endorses this image and finds it funny:

Her show had the highest ratings in a nation that has Trump for president. Go figure. Her old show, as with her new show was unwatchable. I saw a slam by Seth Myers and crew that pointed out a highlight that had her about to turn in her Muslim neighbours as suspected terrorists, until they gave her their wifi password. I praise ABC for cancelling her show because it was a mindless piece of shit. Back to watching the price is right. I guess.

Doesn't surprise me at all. Roseanne and Valerie look like they could be sisters.
I think you need new prescription glasses if you think that they have any resemblance at all.

Does that preclude her from being racist?
Of course not. I was responding to bver_hunter who posted a photo of Roseanne pretending to be Hitler beside an oven. Obviously some people find her humor controversial but she doesn't seem to target anyone in particular because of race.

As for you and the Oagre's of the world, you need not worry about White Supremacists in North America. Many of them have Asian wives and girlfriends, so they don't really practice what they preach: https://www.reddit.com/r/hapas/comments/5nafhd/updated_2017_full_list_of_neonazis_altrights/

People pay to watch all sorts of things, I suspect that her show could do quite well in the world of pay-per-view. It all depends upon whether she holds the rights to the program.

Now I wouldn't watch it, but that is an utterly different matter.
Trailer trash don't pay for TV !

Good comment by Trump. That level of candidness is prized in a President, and it's why he is President.
the slimebag just made it all about him... what a douchebag ( or in your eyes a wonderful President)
