Bette Midler is walking back an insult.
The 76-year-old performer is known for speaking her mind on Twitter – especially when it comes to politics.
On Monday, she took to social media to slam Joe Manchin, West Virginia's Democratic senator who has announced that he's against the Build Back Better Act, which would expand the country's social safety net.
"What #JoeManchin, who represents a population smaller than Brooklyn, has done to the rest of America, who wants to move forward, not backward, like his state, is horrible," Midler tweeted. "He sold us out. He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out."

‘I’m just seeing red’
I’ve heard Hollywood is a very leftist place.
Quite a few stars have enough money to individually pay for a thousand solar panel roof installations.
I, blank, do promise to pay the State of California the sum of blank million dollars for the purposes of Build Back Better within the State of California, subject to the choice of the legislature, provided that at least $5 billion to the State is provided under this form.
“speaking her mind”
Is it all gone now?
Who cares what that harridan says.
Twitter is for stupid people and Marxists.
Sweathog skank.
Bette Midler told us exactly what she thought of West Virginians calling them poor, and illiterate. I suspect she thinks the same of MAGA people.
When I see Bette Midler, I think of the gay bath houses where she performed. In the bath houses there were many small cubicles with huge jars of Vaseline when gay couples would do their thing. The AIDS epidemic exploded, and fortunately the bath houses were shut down.
I also see Bette Midler as red, as in a communist.
West Virginia
So many people, so few family names ...........
as our Lord said, it’s what’s inside a man (or woman) that fouls them.
And yet she votes for communists.
Well, she quoted it, I wonder if she really knows who said it first? Maybe. It would be interesting to find out.
Bette Midler - white liberal ‘elite’ witch... thinks she better than other Americans. Eff her.

I don’t think the people of West Virginia can “unhear” what she “said”.
She looked old back in the 1970s, when she was supposedly young. She has the manner of an old crone.
Sounds like she was describing ChinaWood.
Good point.
She needs to be kidnapped by K-Mart again.
