Roseanne Barr has never really been afraid of speaking her mind.
The actress and comedian recently recounted how she “got into a fight” with liberal filmmaker Rob Reiner about “all that Russian BS.”
Barr has been swimming against the current in Hollywood as she has been increasingly to the right of issues, which made for more sparks in her encounter with Reiner, who has made no secret of his dislike for President Trump.

That and the fact that she said she “drank too much” before running into him.
i drank too much in NYC and saw Rob Reiner and could not help myself-I went over to him & got into a fight with him over all that Russian BS

i said “you’re buying fake news” he said, “I’m not going to listen to this. I’m out of here.” I said-‘u should politiely discuss opinions!’

Apparently, Reiner was not about to entertain any opinions that differed from his own.
polite conversation on the way out of the restaurant was not possible, sadly.

Barr’s classic TV sitcom, “Roseanne,” is set for a reboot by ABC, 30 years after the original show’s debut. The 64 year old, who was the 2012 presidential nominee of the California-based Peace and Freedom Party, is not afraid to defend President Trump as any glance at her social media will show.

She offered some more details of her run-in with Reiner in a series of tweets on Thursday.

i said, “where can I read more about that?” He told me to watch CNN and read the NY times & Wapo. I said, ‘some ppl think that’s Fake News.’

He said, “U can’t b that brainwashed & stupid. Russia elected Trump! I said, “Putin wanted Clinton2 win, like all the billionaires did.”

Reiner has been silent about the encounter thus far. Though he has been anything but silent on his anti-Trump campaign.
Running out of ways to say what a grotesque human being our POTUS is. So how about lying moronic sack of narcissistic garbage?
— Rob Reiner (@robreiner) October 16, 2017
He also declared the president was a “sociopath” without “empathy” during an appearance on “The View” Wednesday.
Twitter users backed Barr and proved that even after all these years, Reiner will always be remembered as a “meathead.”
Good for Roseanne! She tells it like it is whether you like it or not!

45 years since All in the Family, and Reiner is still a “Meathead.” Bravo to you…

We all know the real collusion is between Russia and Hillary. Always blame your opponent on something you are guilty of.

Proud of you Roseanne. Rob Reiner is a pompous bag of gas pushing the left’s hateful Anti-America Anti-Trump agenda! https://t.co/8cpOxgAa2O

Once a meathead, always a meathead LOL
