How can somebody who brought themselves up from their experience and gone to the top? Educated herself, fought for rights, civil rights, and equality. And I think that is threatening to a lot of women.” Bernhard’s remarks come as the reboot of the ABC sitcom featuring the pro-Trump Conner family drew massive ratings for the network.

And, in fact, it was working class people that elected Trump so I felt that was very real and something that needed to be discussed.”
