My prediction: Not only will there be no replacement for a President Trump
supporter, but the spinoff will double down on the President trump hatred.
The show will flop and everyone involved will sit around scratching their
heads and wondering "Whut happennned?!?!?!".

Dems & the media want Trump to be more like Obama, but then he'd
have to audit liberals & wire tap reporters' phones.

It really doesn't matter because everything people liked about it will have
been replaced by a doubling down on what people dislike about Hollywood.

Exactly! Take the racist out of Roseanne, and the conservatives won't
want to watch it anymore!
You *DO* know that's the argument YOU just made, right?

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha...

Oh, oh... what's that? You DON'T realize that you just argued that if
you take the anti-Semitic racist out of the show, people like YOU won't
want to watch?

Now, THAT'S real comedy!
