Fired TV star Roseanne Barr said Thursday she has changed her mind and will stay on Twitter after all — so she can "help build a movement" to solve America's problems.

The reversal came two days after ABC Entertainment cancelled the reboot of Barr's highly rated show in the wake of her racist tweet about former President Barack Obama’s senior adviser, Valerie Jarrett.

Barr came under heavy fire from the public — and on social media — prompting an apology and announcement she would be leaving Twitter, before she got dumped by ABC Entertainment.

Barr played herself, a conservative, in her TV show.
