Roseanne Barr, the comedian, was infamously fired for posting a derogatory tweet about the 44th president’s former top adviser.
When Roseanne claimed in a 2018 tweet that Valerie Jarrett was the “baby” of Planet of the Apes and Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood political group, ABC canceled her TV reboot Roseanne.
Roseanne apologized and accused Ambien of being the source of her insensitive post. She later retaliated, attacking Valerie once again and accusing her of supporting Donald Trump, which led to the cancelation of her program.
Roseanne’s career never recovered to the heyday of her 1988–1997 comedy when her show was cancelled and she was criticized by politicians, celebrities, and the public.
