Trump Takes Aim at "Washed-Up Psycho" Bette Midler
Hollywood Reporter ^ | June 4, 2019 | Katie Kilkenny

Another day, another insult tweeted by the president.

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump took aim at Bette Midler, who apologized on Monday for tweeting a fake Trump quote. "Washed up psycho @BetteMidler was forced to apologize for a statement she attributed to me that turned out to be totally fabricated by her in order to make 'your great president' look really bad. She got caught, just like the Fake News Media gets caught. A sick scammer!" he wrote.

On Monday, Midler tweeted an apology for a previous statement she had erroneously attributed to Trump. "I apologize; this quote turns out to be a fake from way back in ‘15-16. Don’t know how I missed it, but it sounds SO much like him that I believed it was true!" the singer-actress wrote.

Midler then linked to a Reno Gazette Journal story that fact-checked a meme wherein Trump is quoted as saying, to People magazine, "If I were to run, I'd run as a Republican. They're the dumbest group of voters in the country. They love anything on Fox News. I could lie and they'd still eat it up. I bet my numbers would be terrific." The meme was deemed "bogus."

I wish he wouldn’t waste his time by giving these cretins free publicity.

Actually, it is Trump that gets the free publicity. Every time one of these Hollywood/Democrat scumbags goes off the deep end, they show what disgusting people they are AND we get another moment where everyone says "Huh - Trump was right again!"

So Twitter is going to suspend Midler, like they did to James Woods, right?

BTW, Parler sucks. Conservatives shouldn't abandon Twitter. Stay on it and fight and let them ban you, which will show their ulterior motives and then it'll become a liberal echo chamber and gradually lose subscribers.

Many people aren’t aware that Bette Midler’s “Wind Beneath My Wings” is a cover version.

Sheena Easton, Lee Greenwood, Gladys Knight and Gary Morris recorded their own versions of the song in the 80’s.

The only version that I’m familiar with, other than Midler’s, is Gary Morris’ version. IMO, Morris’ version is more authentic and sincere than Midler’s.

I hate that Bette Midler has proven to be such a demented b***h, because I have always loved “The Rose”.

Now, I can’t even stand to look at her face.

Not just in the blood of virgins, but in the blood of innocents...that explains their love of all things abortion.

I love these excuses.

“I tweeted out a complete lie... But I should be excused because it sounded like something that I think he WOULD HAVE said.”

“I love it how Trump goes after these libs. If our past and present countless Republicans had did the same, the libs would think twice about launching all of theirs lies against us.”

No, in fact he just helped her. To her, any publicity is good.

Shut up and sing


Please, no. She’s nauseating to look at and never impressed me with her singing.
