‘Racism is not funny and Roseanne Barr is a racist’

EXCERPT:

[clip starts]
TRUMP: “Look at Roseanne. I called her yesterday. Look at her ratings. Look at her ratings. I got a call from Mark Burnett. He did ‘The Apprentice’. He’s a great guy. He said Donald, I called just to say hello, to tell you, did you see Roseanne’s ratings? I said Mark, how big were they? They were unbelievable. Over 18 million people.”

SMITH: “Huge ratings but racism killed it. So far no word from president Trump since ABC’s decision just less than an hour ago. Seems no amount of viewers or tweeting could have saved Roseanne from her racist ways. At least not this time."
