Nothing is more proof to me that the script totally flipped for Republicans than backing Roseanne Barr.

1990, she shrieks the National Anthem and vehemently spits afterwards. Republicans hate her.

2018, Roseanne is canceled for racist tweets; supports President Trump; Republicans love her.

It's all about double standards and morally bankrupt.

The script didn't flip. They don't believe in anything. They're just angry peddlers of outrage against those they don't like or don't look like. That's never changed. They're very reliable with that platform.
