WaPo took it upon themselves to compare Roseanne’s revival to a show from the 70’s because her character is a Trump supporter.

From Newsbusters:
The Washington Post on Tuesday looked at the upcoming revival of the classic ’90s sitcom Roseanne. Because it’s been announced that the character of Roseanne is a Trump supporter now, the Post’s Hank Stuever compared her to ‘70s bigot Archie Bunker.
The article’s headline screamed: “Rebooted Roseanne is a proud ‘deplorable.’ Can she be the Trump era’s Archie Bunker?”
Roseanne was less than impressed with their take on her show.
the roseanne show is about LOVE, thanks!

Repeat after us, Roseanne … BUUUUUUT TRUUUUUUUMP.
No, it doesn’t make a damn bit of sense but this is the media of 2018 and they will do anything to support the narrative that Trump supporters are bad people.
Our daughter grew up watching Roseanne, it was the only show we allowed her to watch on school nights since it was on at 9pm. The lesson…..life is hard but with love and humor there is always hope. ?

Until the final season, Roseanne focused on middle America, and the struggles many of us face with family, jobs, friends, and money. The Conners could have been neighbors to every one of us … well, except for people on the coasts who seem to look down their noses at people ‘like that.’
Can't wait to watch it! pic.twitter.com/eG1tiXb6qU

We imagine the ratings will be through the roof.
Your show was always about Love of family and dealing with real issues faced along the journeys in life. I can't wait Roseanne.. I can finally plug my tv back into the wall.. At least once a week.. 🙂

I, personally, hate Donald Trump…BUT I love @therealroseanne and the Connors. A good debate is good for my soul. #cantwait

And there ya’ go, some sanity. Just because you don’t like Trump doesn’t mean you can’t love Roseanne and her new show.
Don’t be doorknobs, Lefties.
