She also said a lot of people have been hurt as a result of Barr’s tweet, which likened former Barack Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett to a product of the Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes. Gilbert, who played Darlene on the show, revealed her disappointment to fellow co-hosts. “In addition to my statement, I would like to say this has been a very difficult week. A lot of people have been hurt by this," she said before adding, “I’m sad for the people who lost their jobs in the process. However, I do stand behind the decision that ABC made.”
Wow! unreal.
