Wait, a “Murphy Brown” reboot? That’s crazy. That show was from a very, very different era, back when the vice president of the United States was a vapid, regressive conservative from Indiana.

Trump is in the papers for being a racist clown.

The vice president is a sexist moron from Indiana.

A drug epidemic is sweeping the nation but being ignored.

And Murphy Brown is set to premiere on television.

1988 or 2018?

This also got me thinking: I don’t think Reagan would have tweeted like Trump, but I think we’d be hearing about a lot of similar issues with the Reagan administration that we do with Trump. Reagan was racist, at least based on his platform. Imagine the kind of damage control his administration would have instituted had Iran-Contra been leaked in real-time.
