It's been one hell of a week for Roseanne Barr, who managed to get her wildly successful show cancelled by ABC after an extremely racist Twitter rant. Because the president of the United States of America is mostly concerned with TV shows and ratings and whatnot, Donald Trump has now weighed in.
Taking to Twitter today, Trump offered a sarcastic take on how ABC's president Bob Iger apologized to Valerie Jarrett for Roseanne's comments. You see, Donny believes he deserves an apology too:
It's a classic deflection that the president does all too well, though it doesn't take into account the abhorrent racism present in Roseanne's rhetoric.
Roseanne, meanwhile, blamed her racist rant on Ambien. What a world we live in.

Bob Iger of ABC called Valerie Jarrett to let her know that "ABC does not tolerate comments like those" made by Roseanne Barr. Gee, he never called President Donald J. Trump to apologize for the HORRIBLE statements made and said about me on ABC. Maybe I just didn't get the call?
