Actually no. Roseanne is very relevant because what she did is take her old show and bring the same characters up to today's current decade.

Even today's politics has a role in the program.

Yup, seems like I and Tumbleweed are correct.

MEN DISAPPEAR FROM RUST BELT AS UNEMPLOYMENT AND ADDICTION RISE

There’s a surprising rebound in Trump country – and it could be short-lived

by Andrew Van Dam March 29 Email the author

Thanks.



Now the early returns are in: In the first year of the Trump presidency, places that voted for Trump are doing better economically than at the end of the Obama administration. But that is not totally surprising, because the overall economy has continued to add jobs.

What may be more surprising is that not only are these counties adding jobs, but also job growth has accelerated the most in counties where Trump earned the most votes, according to a Washington Post analysis of Labor Department data.

It’s too soon to declare victory, however, and the current set of gains may well be short-lived.



[...]

Why the shift

Economists broadly agree a politician’s ability to create jobs in the short term is overblown. (The exception is a large spending bill, such as the 2009 fiscal stimulus, but that did not occur in 2017.) And Trump hasn't yet had time to fully see the effects of long-term policy that might bring sustained growth to rural America. He initiated a process of regulatory overhaul and passed tax cuts at the end of the year, but any gains from those policies probably won't show up in any meaningful way in the 2017 figures. It's nonetheless possible Trump's victory has contributed at least in part to the faster improvement in regions where residents voted for him most.

Those higher expectations alone might nudge growth rates upward as people are more willing to spend and invest, said Jed Kolko, chief economist at the job-search site Indeed.com.

[..]

Oil and commodity prices crawled up off the floor in 2017 as global economic growth picked up pace and, more importantly, production started to recover. Companies became more efficient and shifted their efforts to more cost-effective wells and regions. As Brown explains, production, not price growth, leads most directly to jobs in the industry.

[...]

So while 2017 was relatively strong, the rural areas that supported Trump most lack the underlying economic structure to overcome the ever-present head winds of an aging population and receding industries.


[...]

Remember that Trump’s apparent success is relative to a particularly anemic baseline. His strongest supporters ARE STILL SEEING THE COUNTRY'S SLOWEST JOB GROWTH, even if it’s faster than what they had become accustomed to by the end of the Obama years.

And if they’re growing slower than the rest of the country, then not only are they not making up lost ground, but also they’re falling further and further behind.



--



Okay... so:

The economic expectations of Republicans turned drastically more positive after Trump's election.

The global economy picked up pace. (Maybe because Merkel was elected in Germany again, and the world turned more positive? :)
Paramount

I think here is the core of the problem:

"So while 2017 was relatively strong, the rural areas that supported Trump most lack the underlying economic structure to overcome the ever-present head winds of an aging population and receding industries."


People needs to find new jobs in new/differents areas/business. Which means that people needs to re-educate themselves. Although, someone who is 50+ may not like it to go to school again. But people has to adapt or perish.

So Trump should invest in education in these areas. Offer free education to people who are losing their jobs. It's an investment.

That tweet was pretty bad but it should have warranted an apology tour or suspension. Canceling the country's most-watched show over a single tweet seems rather difficult to explain absent a political angle or behind the scenes drama.
