17. I've got a better idea

How about ABC NOT do a Roseanne spinoff. Right now, the cast and crew of the Roseanne show can leave with their heads held high: our show got cancelled because the star let her racist flag fly. They can find new work.

The only reason the Deplorables were watching that show was to see Roseanne support Trump. If they do a spinoff no one's going to watch it, and they'll have to try to get new jobs after their last show was cancelled for bad ratings.

As Doctor McCoy put it so many times, "it's dead, Jim."
