Actress Roseanne Barr raised the possibility as recently as March that she might run for president — again. Now she’s fantasizing about becoming Israel’s prime minister.
“I want to move to Israel and run for prime minister, I do. I do have that fantasy. If God calls me, I’ll go, of course,” she said during a lengthy interview at the Jerusalem Post Annual Conference in Manhattan on Sunday.

Her prime minister dream could segue into her other “fantasy of being an old Jewish lady living in the Jewish homeland. … I want to buy a farm there and maybe bring my family,” said the 65-year-old comedian.
For now, Barr is committed to finishing out the resurrected “Roseanne” and has signed on for another season. She was happy about the call from President Donald Trump congratulating her on the show’s success. “He’s really into ratings — like I am,” she quipped. She thanked him for deciding to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, adding: “It’s the first step toward peace in the world.”
