Roseanne Barr should have been fired what she said was racist. But why do you always hear her referred to as a strong Trump supporter and Harvey Weinstein who was just arrested and charged with rape is never referred to as a Clinton/Obama Democrat campaign bundler?

Why does the media feel it's necessary to remind its audience of Roseanne Barr's political affiliations but ignore Harvey Weinstein's?

Uh, maybe it is because Trump trumpeted the show and her ratings and called her one of us as in Trump supporters? You snowflakes weren't ready to have to defend all three branches after 8 years of your ********, lol. Hillary only matters in ya'lls world anymore, who cares, she was a friend of Weinstein, maybe that is why she lost, what is your point? How life ain't always fair?

So it's necessary in your mind for the media to remind its audience that Roseanne Barr and Trump are politically affiliated but not that Harvey Weinstein was probably the biggest Democrat campaign fundraiser in the party's history?

Got it.

I will always refer to him as a Democrat fundraiser because that's what he is.

Is he guilty of rape? That's what the trials are for. But the media sure has a disinclination to point out his Democrat leanings but they are very eager to point out Roseanne Barr's Trump support. Why is that boom?

Has Trump disavowed Roseanne? Hildabeast at least disavowed Harvey after all this came to light.

Comparing your hero to Hillary. What a high bar. lol

I didn't need anyone to remind me, she has been tweeting about him since her show was back on, and she embodies the racism and victimhood that Trump pretty much affirmed with his latest and first tweet on the matter. He a racist Barr a racist, Weinstein a rapist, Hillary not a rapist. And Hillary has spoken out against Weinstein while Trump just embraces Roseanne. Roseanne doesn't define Trump unless he wants her too, seems that he does. Hillary ain't got a nickel in my Americas dime anymore, Trump does.

OK...that's your explanation for the media reminding the audience of Roseanne's support for Trump and saying nothing about Weinstein's support for all Democrats, not just Hillary?

Democrats in Office today accept money from Weinstein and his Hollywood crowd that looked the other way while he was allegedly abusing Women and very few of them today condemn him or refuse his money. The media doesn't even think it's necessary to remind anyone of his staunch support for Democrats and apparently you don't think that matters much either?

But Barr and Trump and by extrapolation all Republicans are racists.

However only Weinstein may or may not be a rapist. The rest of the Democrat party is pure and clean and innocent and perfect. They don't even lie to FISA court Judges.:eek:kay:

We heard plenty about Weinstein's support of and donations to the dems. I haven't heard much lately but I think he is generally been convicted and sentenced in the public's eye now - old news.

But wasn't it just a few weeks ago where Le Grande Orange was calling Barr and tweeting about her?

I am curious, as an African American, were you bothered by it? I read somewhere that junior re-tweeted it although I cannot verify that.

I think what she said was disgusting. I never watched her show and don't care much for her but I also think Weinstein is a pig and for years most Democrats knew it and kept their mouths shut. Were you among them?

Do you really think I hang with that Hollywood crowd? The only actor I ever met was Ned Beatty and we all know what happened to Ned in Deliverance.

I have to think there were more than just dems that knew what Weinstein was doing.........

I don't. I'm glad she lost but still pissed she's not in jail! I'm just pointing out the media double standard. Not surprised you Leftists don't see it. You all don't think Trump was spied on either. He was just being "informed" about Russians he was allegedly colluding with.:confused:

If Trump was being spied on, we all would have known the details of the Russian/Trump campaign meeting in July of 2016 when it happened. Do you really think the Dems would have sat on information that damning? Intelligence agencies tell Trump that the Russians are attempting to infiltrate his campaign. He doesn't react. Page and Manafort are embedded in that campaign and have been on the the FBI's radar. Page for 3 years. Trump's own son meets with Russians to get dirt on HRC. Trump's personal attorney is knee deep in debt with Russians due to taxi medallions. (These are all known facts BTW).

I have said this for months but if the FBI wasn't investigating, I'd be appalled. But you and the other nutz, have no concerns at all with any of this and, therefore, it just had to be spying.........WTF dude, My nut coworker told be about 2 hrs ago that he can't figure out why Fox news, Gowdy, The right-leaning NY Daily News, and others are trying to downplay spygate. He things the mainstream republicans are behind the recent criticisms of Le Grande Orange. He specifically noted Marco Rubio as the driver. And yet another conspiracy theory is hatched. The goalposts move.....

All that and we still don't know who ordered Trump's campaign be placed under surveillance and who ordered those phony FISA warrants? What was the national security threat from Carter Page?

He was being recruited by Russian intelligence as far back as 2013. No big deal.

Lordy POSSIBLY..... He had been under a FISA warrant on and off for 3 years ATL.....

Again. would you rather the FBI do nothing? I am just dumbfounded by the illogical thought process. You guys are so hellbent on proving this deep state stuff that you can't see the obvious. Page was a suspected double agent and had been since long before Trump hired him on.

To me the bigger questions are why did Trump align with Manafort and Page? He apparently never knew them but both held huge rolls in the campaign.

I would rather the DOJ show us the unredacted documents that led to the decision to request FISA warrants on Page? I'd rather we see the evidence that was presented to request the FISA warrants? I'd rather we understand what threat the Russians were to our National security that Trump needed to be monitored but not informed why? We'll eventually get answers, but the ones who made those decisions and know what they were up to spying on an American political campaign aren't telling us are they OM1?

If he was under threat from a hostile Foreign adversary, don't you think those claiming to "protect" him would have warned him of the danger he faced? While they were spying on him no one bothered to let him in on it?
