Left-wing singer and actress Bette Midler posted a tweet relishing that President Donald Trump and his family will "hang" due to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation "GOOD AND HIGH."
Midler's tweet Friday went like this:
Trump Trump Trump
Bob Mueller's marching,
Trump Trump Trump
And here is why
Trump Trump Trump
He's gonna hang you
Hang the fam'ly
GOOD AND HIGH!
Her tweet was a reply to a video posted by Scott Dworkin, lead investigator of the Democratic Coalition, showing "Donald Trump Jr talking about the Russian hotels & golf courses he's looked at." Mueller and his team have been looking into whether Trump worked with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election.
Midler's tweet received over 11,000 likes but was harshly criticized by some users as well:
- "Another liberal calling for violence against people with different views..."
- "Secret Service should investigate this."
- "Really? Advocating the lynching of a sitting President? Just... wow! Civility is a lost cause."
This wasn't the first time the "Divine Miss M" has posted off-putting words on social media. In October, Midler apologized after tweeting that women are the "n-word of the world" amid the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh despite him being accused of sexual assault over three decades earlier.
