My friend was so happy to see her revive her old show. Uh, something tells me that when I inform her about what numb-skull Roseanne said, she won't be watching.

So happy I never wasted one minute watching her show back in the day.

Barr ran for president on the left-wing Peace and Freedom Party platform in 2012. I guess I shouldn't be surprised because over the last few years I have noticed more left-wingers falling for right-wing populism. If you are not careful it is easy to fall for the rhetoric and some liberals make the conversion easier by making the mistake of attacking Trump voters based on class stereotypes (referencing trailer parks, hillbillies, etc.) while forgetting that the Republican base is still made up of affluent white suburbanites.
