That’s just superb.
Spiraling, spiraling down…
Apparently she is a Trumpist because like him, she just can’t shut the fuck up when she should.
Really? That’s all you have to say about it?
Of course they have rights, but we as the public and as consumers have the right and the moral obligation to judge them for how they exercise their rights and punish or reward them as we see fit.
I hate the guy’s shit, but I can’t remember anything he’s said that was like this. Looking it up, it seems that it’s because he calls Trump a gorilla. They are really doubling down on this “not getting it” bullshit, aren’t they? Not just the lack of racial overtones, but also not getting what type of show the guy makes? And forgetting what network it is on?
Of course, the idiotic White House Correspondents Dinner had to give them a taste of power, so of course they think they can just make up bullshit offenses and get it taken down. Here’s hoping HBO is made of sterner stuff than the fucking press of the United States.
The right wing instantly tried to pivot from Roseanne to this NFL talking point. I don’t what it has to do with Roseanne other than they, like Roseanne, don’t particularly like black people, but the pivot was amazingly fast for an event that happened during a holiday week. Now of course we are in bizarre right wing world where a Trump supporter making a racist comment is the same as a black athlete protesting police brutality and we are spending energy engaging in their deflection as if the argument had merit.
American Republicans are truly horrible people. Just horrible fucking people.
Naw, said elsewhere the best replacement would have been Rosie O’Donnell. You wouldn’t have to change a thing, not even the show’s name! 
I read her dad’s column religiously. Bright guy. My daughters are not stupid, but White House material? Maybe one, but Regression to Mean is my family’s story,
This. I mean, “Duh.” I obviously mean that I burn more brain cells typing “Honk to wake up the dogs” than I do on any post here.
She thought that, like Trump, she could say anything she wanted to because she was so powerful. But with great power comes great responsibility.
Hey-I should copyright that.
Or have Melissa MacCarthy play her in blackface.
What an incredibly bad suggestion. Have you no shame?
Trump should name her new White House press secretary!
That’ll teach the press! Ha!
Besides, it’s consistent. Maher also got fired from ABC for making comments that people felt were inappropriate. No whataboutism about it.
You see nothing wrong with black people being compared to apes?
Well, the apes were kind of the good guys in the movie, really.
As some folks here probably know, this isn’t the first time RB compared a black woman to an ape:
I think the network did the right thing here, but it’s not like we (or they) didn’t know all this before the reboot was given the go-ahead.
Conservative foreign policy expert Tom Nichols on twitter: [INDENT][INDENT][INDENT] Last week: Roseanne really connects to Trump voters and speaks to them in a way you elites just don’t get. That’s why he called her.
This week: You Never Trumpers are just crazy and obsessive to draw any connection between Trump and the disgraceful racist he was congratulating. [/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] https://twitter.com/RadioFreeTom/status/1001810660391641088
Neoconservative Max Boot: [INDENT][INDENT][INDENT] Racists such as Roseanne may feel emboldened to vent their hatred because they see Trump doing it. This should not be a radical idea for conservatives. They used to believe that a president’s conduct mattered.

In other news: [INDENT][INDENT][INDENT] John Bolton has chosen Fred Fleitz as the new NSC chief of staff. Fleitz is Senior VP of Frank Gaffney’s Center for Security Policy, an @splcenter designated hate group that @ADL_National condemns as “dedicated to advancement of myriad conspiracy theories & anti-Muslim extremism” [/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] CSP were the clowns who pushed the Valerie Jarrett / Muslim Brotherhood conspiracy theory referenced in Roseanne’s tweet. Their guy has a leading post in the National Security Council now.

Trump continues to receive solid backing from the Fortune 500.
It must be horrible to be you.
Yeah, we only have to read a racist or ignorant comment for thirty seconds. Some people have them ricocheting around in their heads all day and night.
AKSHULLY, with the greatest power that has ever been seen, what we call the tippy-top of power ; comes no responsibility whatsoever because nobody in history has been treated as unfairly for what’s totally Obama’s fault anyway. Sad.
Think about how hard it must be just to go to the store for a loaf of bread with all that hate in his heart.
Fucking WHITE bread, fucking WHITE bread!
