Actress-comedian Roseanne Barr praised Republican Donald Trump, blasted Democrat Hillary Clinton and expressed doubts about the American political system in a wide-ranging interview with the Hollywood Reporter this week. I think we would be so lucky if Trump won, the 67-year-old Roseanne star told THR on the eve of the California primary. Because then it wouldnt be Hillary.
Barr, whose own 2012 presidential run is the subject of the new documentary Roseanne for President!, told THR that she supports Trump in the 2016 election because to her, [Trump] is saying that the order of law matters.
When a president can just pass laws all on his own, that is a little bit different than what America was supposed to be about, Barr explained. And Trump is saying people will have to be vetted, well have to have legal immigration. Its all a scam. I mean, illegal immigration. When people come here and they get a lot of benefits that our own veterans dont get. Whats up with that?

Barr is hardly the traditional Republican voter. Yet, here she is backing Trump. And, from reading the article, it seems her reasons are sound and logical.
It's another sign that Trump is creating a new coalition.
If my coalition contains that evil woman who possesses zero redeeming qualities I will grim and bear it.
I agree.
Still an endorsement I would rather not have.
Wow... Roseanne has been a HARD CORE anti-Republican for a long time!
I agree, support like this only scratches the surface of others out there that are fed up with the left.
That’s why you’re not Trump.
Ms. Barr is to be commended for her wise words. However, not all has been forgiven or forgotten. Thank you, Ms. Barr. A few sips at the fountain of knowledge has been of great help.
OK, I am fainting now....I can’t believe it.
In the end she is an American, and finally GETS what’s at stake.
Welcome her aboard and push forward. We dont have the luxury to pick and choose.
This whole year keeps getting odder and odder.
As long as she doesn’t sing the national anthem at his inauguration her endorsement is welcome to me.
Roseanne has a least two redeeming qualities -- she's apparently pro-vet and anti-illegal alien.
Now Trump's old nemesis Rosie O'Donnell has zero redeeming qualities. ....except as an emetic.
alright this is really crazy...Barr for Trump?... we sure she’s just not being sarcastic?
if it’s true Trump’s really blowing up the traditional political paradigms
If Hillary! has lost Roseanne, then she lost the nation.....................
I was all for Trump... this makes me question it.
Pigs are flying and Hell just froze over.
Wait... this must be satire. Is this satire?
This has to be satire
I think even Hollywood is getting sick and tired of a quarter century of front page CLINTON............
Immigrants in the 1800s and for most of the 1900s did NOT get any sort of government welfare after they arrived. They were expected to “earn their own way.” Now immigrants, legal and illegal, get government welfare, thus “such a deal” and, although some or many may work, others are probably content to live much better than “back home” because of US Government welfare payments.
This has GOT to be a parody!?!
