Somehow, President Donald Trump has managed to make the Roseanne story about himself.

Following ABC’s cancellation of the sitcom following its star’s racist Twitter outburst, the president cast his fury upon Disney CEO Bob Iger in a Wednesday morning Tweet:

Bob Iger of ABC called Valerie Jarrett to let her know that “ABC does not tolerate comments like those” made by Roseanne Barr. Gee, he never called President Donald J. Trump to apologize for the HORRIBLE statements made and said about me on ABC. Maybe I just didn’t get the call? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 30, 2018

Twitter shook its collective head in amazement that the president managed to grab the spotlight. Here’s a sampling of the reaction:

Sarah Sanders said just yesterday that President Trump was not focused on things like this. https://t.co/J3YK3wmLxP — Kaitlan Collins (@kaitlancollins) May 30, 2018

All of you who said Trump is calculating and transactional and wouldn’t tether himself to the Rosanne controversy because there was nothing in it for him but an opportunity to posture victimized underestimated how much he values victimization. https://t.co/dsZrTp97Ht — Noah Rothman (@NoahCRothman) May 30, 2018

Are you surprised? Trump is implying that he’s the victim of a liberal media double standard https://t.co/sPa3CgyVK4 — Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) May 30, 2018

And…once again, Trump makes it all about himself. Instead of listing the Hollywood/media Leftists who’ve said bigoted things but kept their jobs, you know…the real double standard, Trump whines about how HE has been treated. He’s a big baby. https://t.co/r77LOklCxV — Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) May 30, 2018
