Roseanne Barr claims coronavirus is a ruse to get rid of rich boomers

This. Woman. - by Penelope Kilby
  • 07 Apr 2020

She's at it AGAIN.

Roseanne Barr is never far from controversy, and this time, the loud-mouthed American has some bizarre thoughts on COVID-19.

MUST WATCH: Roseanne Barr says coronavirus is a ruse to get rid of rich boomers

The disgraced actress appeared on former SNL star Norm MacDonald's YouTube series, Quarantined With Norm MacDonald on Sunday when she made the outlandish claims.

'You know what it is, Norm? I think they're just trying to get rid of all my generation,' the 67-year-old began. 

'The boomer ladies that, you know, that inherited their [money], you know, are widows. They inherited the money, so they got to go wherever the money is and figure out a way to get it from people.'

Norm added: 'There's so many boomers that have money and do no work. So if you got them out of society, that would be a good thriller.'
