Washington (CNN) After posting gangbuster ratings for the reboot of her late 20th-century sitcom, Roseanne Barr received a call from President Donald Trump on Wednesday. The White House declined to provide any additional details about the call, which occurred on a day when the President had no public events. But Trump himself chose to recount the conversation Thursday at the tail end of a nearly hour-long speech at a union facility outside Cleveland. "Look at Roseanne -- look at her ratings," Trump told the crowd, which had gathered to hear Trump deliver what was billed as an infrastructure speech but sounded instead closer to a political rally. He said he first took a phone call Wednesday from the producer of his "Apprentice" series Mark Burnett, who asked whether he'd seen Roseanne's ratings.
