NOT OK,\u201d she tweeted. \u201cTelling anyone to \u2018get ready for the trains\u2019 in reference to WWII is disgusting &amp; offensive. Reporting you to twitter is not enough.

I find it sad to recognize that this kind of vicious underbelly was there all along.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">After the election last week, Rossum explained why Trump\u2019s rhetoric affected her so strongly. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to understand how so many people saw something so differently than you did. It feels personal to so many,\u201d she tweeted. \u201cI am a woman. I am Jewish. I am marrying an Arab American. My sister in law is handicapped. I\u2019m a victim of sexual violence. It\u2019s personal.
