On Wednesday morning, President Trump responded to ABC’s announcement Tuesday that it canceled pro-Trump Roseanne Barr’s hit sit-com reboot over her “abhorrent” tweet describing Valerie Jarrett as the love child of the Muslim Brotherhood and “The Planet of the Apes.” In his response, however, Trump didn’t actually address Barr’s comments but, rather, focused on what he suggested was ABC’s double standard in reaching out to Jarrett but not him.
“Bob Iger of ABC called Valerie Jarrett to let her know that ‘ABC does not tolerate comments like those’ made by Roseanne Barr,” wrote Trump. “Gee, he never called President Donald J. Trump to apologize for the HORRIBLE statements made and said about me on ABC. Maybe I just didn’t get the call?”
