What was her comment?


Some exchange with Chelsea Clinton where she accused Soros of being a nazi who sold his jew neighbors into death camps or something.

It wasn’t even that bad.

Sounds like this was the convenient reason they've been waiting for.

Always knew she was an idiot, but damn.
Normally I'm against a left witch hunt but Roseanne was just plain stupid here

Looks like FOX could pick it up and have Last Man Standing be a 1-2 punch.

Her Tweet was exceedingly unwise and ABC did exactly what one might expect them to do. One might even say, they did what the NFL is doing/should have done.

I get the desire to opine when one is famous. But, ABC, just like the NFL, appeals to a wide audience.

That said, something tells me ABC won't be even handed on such things.

Joking about Valerie Jarrett looking like an ape or something like that.

VJ does have monkey looking features though.

It was hard to imagine any network continuing any show after its star made comments like that. There's politically incorrect and then there's fricking stupid.

Yeah, her "economic anxiety" caused her to tweet that. It is the dumbest of dumb takes to connect this politically.


The meme that she was a Trump supporter because he spoke to the economic anxiety of the country was on display in every Fox News segment I saw.

This plays right into the left's hand in saying, see economic anxiety = racist.
