Roseanne Barr Tapped For Trumpettes' Gala At Mar-a-Lago

Controversial comedian Roseanne Barr — whose rebooted “Roseanne” TV series was cancelled after a racist attack on Twitter — is joining the lineup at an upcoming Trumpettes USA fete at Mar-a-Lago, The Palm Beach Post reported.

Barr will be a featured speaker at Donald Trump’s golf resort for the gala, which begins Feb. 1 and is organized by the president’s female supporters. The event is already sold out, the group noted on its Facebook page with a link to the newspaper story announcing Barr’s appearance. Donald Trump Jr. is also scheduled to attend. (Everyone attendee will receive a copy of his book.)

SNIP

Barr’s series was cancelled by ABC last year after she attacked former Obama White House aide Valerie Jarrett on Twitter.

“Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj,” Barr tweeted, referring to Jarrett, who is black and was born in Iran to American parents.

It is unimaginable that this horrid group of bigots and morons is being honored by the President of the United States.

Like all GOP books, mass buys to get them on the NYT list leaves tons of them around and they give them away all the time.

The idiot could have survived, and even had fun with it with the media, but that disrespectful spit put an end to that.

Wonder how that would go over?



* Oh, reference might be kind of obscure there...Drew Barrymore was a guest on David Letterman on his 48th birthday. Her gift to him? Turned her back to the audience and flashed him

Or maybe if Roseanne followed suit and flashed Trump, evangelicals who support Trump would praise that particular revelation? Particularly if she flipped the bird to the audience while she was at it
