Roseanne Barr has revealed how her character will be written off The Conners, the ABC spinoff that will feature all the members of the Conner TV family but the Trump-supporting matriarch she played. In an interview with conservative activist Brandon Straka, the founder of the largely pro-Trump #WalkAway movement, Barr said the writers have her character “die of an opioid overdose.” The comedienne, who was axed from Roseanne for posting racist comments about a former Obama White House aide, told Straka she believes the move is meant to send a message to Trump supporters. “It wasn’t enough to just do what they did to me. They had to so cruelly insult the people who love that family and that show. They had to cruelly insult them.” “It’s over,” she said. “There’s no fight left. I did what I had to do to save my own life.”
