Roseanne Barr Just Doubled Down On Her Support Of Trump: 'This Is America, It’s A Free Country'

Roseanne Barr recently returned to the airwaves with a revival of her hit 90's television show Roseanne. This time around, however, the Connors are mostly comprised of Trump supporters, which has caused a great deal of controversy among some viewers who believe Trump's behavior shouldn't be normalized or implicitly supported on mainstream television, and others who believe it's healthy for a more conservative perspective to be represented in the media.

Barr also happens to be a staunch supporter of the President in real life, a fact she defended to Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show this past Monday, April 30.



When Fallon mentioned many are unhappy she supports President Trump, Roseanne replied with her trademark aplomb:

I don't give a f**k.


Barr continued:

I mean, everybody had to choose for themselves, according to their own conscience, who they felt was the lesser of two evils.

This is America, it's a free country, and you know, when you weigh it all together, you know, I just felt like we needed a whole new thing. All the way. Bottom to top.




Roseanne responded similarly to a line of questioning from late night host Jimmy Kimmel not so long ago:


Though Roseanne unabashedly voted for President Trump, she's not completely blind to his faults, but also believes he was the lesser of two evils. She explained her view on liberals to Kimmel:

I'm still the same, you all moved. You all went so f***ing far out, you lost everything. You want Pence? You want Pence for the frickin' president? Well, then zip that fucking lip.


Roseanne airs Tuesdays on ABC at 8pm! No matter how you feel about her politics, there's no denying Barr still knows how to crack a joke. Here's her full interview with Fallon, where they reminisce about her first appearance on The Tonight Show.

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
