What the Roseanne saga tells us about the left's view of the white working class

Last week, ABC cancelled the newly returned sitcom, Roseanne, in the wake of the racist and extremist statements made on Twitter by its titular star. Ben Margulies writes on how Roseanne - the actress - has been made into a populist avatar taken by the media and many on the left to be representative of all of Donald Trump's supporters. While before the star’s outburst, Roseanne was seen to represent a white working class driven by economic desperation to vote for Trump. Now, he argues, that same group are seen as irredeemable racists who can be easily condemned by the left.
