“Roseanne” star Sandra Bernhard slammed women who voted for President Trump as not having the ability to “think for themselves.”
“I think it’s being either under the thumb of your husband or, for the election, it was being so offended by Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton’s legacy that you turned on her,” 62-year-old actress explained Wednesday during her appearance on “The Beat with Ari Melber” on MSNBC.

“Or feeling inadequate,” she added. “Feeling like ‘how can somebody be so educated. How could somebody have brought themselves up from their own experience and gone to the top, educated herself, fought for civil rights and equality.’ And I think that’s threatening to a lot of women.”
“A lot of women have compromised, given in, gotten married, raised their kids and not had the luxury of being able to think for themselves,” she continued. “And when you sacrifice that in your life and you say I don’t think I’m going to lean on somebody else financially that means you’ve got to get up every day and go work.”
“I am not saying that none of these women work,” Bernard shared. “Of course they do. But you also–there’s just those little gradations of how you look at other women and the sort of feeling you have of inadequacy.”
