Social Media Schools Bette Midler on Unhinged Hillary Claim
'Hocus Pocus' star says former First Lady never did this (boy, did she ever)
You can always count on Bette Midler to boost the latest progressive narrative.
Trump bad. Biden Good. So is Sen. Rand Paul’s neighbor.

The latter should have gotten the Divine Ms. M. in serious trouble for cheering on violence. Instead, the culture looked the other way because the victim had an “R” in front of his name.
So it wasn’t a surprise to see Midler run to the Democrats’ side once again on X, formerly known as Twitter. This time, the actress bungled her facts in epic fashion.
Can you imagine what would have happened if Hillary Clinton had claimed the election was stolen?

There’s one problem with her comment. It’s wrong. Totally.
It’s so wrong it takes but a few minutes to find the proof of how wrong it is on YouTube.
That’s a very partial list. And it doesn’t mention that Team Clinton set the phony Russian collusion narrative in motion.
Yet the press, to this reporter’s knowledge, hasn’t pressed Clinton personally on the matter. Speaking Truth to Power is so 2015.
Of course, election denial isn’t restricted to Donald Trump and Clinton. Other prominent Democrats, including Stacey Abrams, have done the same.
In Midler’s defense, the mainstream media either ignores or downplays this chronic issue when it’s embraced by liberals. So she may not even realize how wrong she is.
All she had to do, though, was read the reactions to her Tweet.
You’re welcome, Ms. Midler.

Hillary Clinton wrote the book on denying elections. The MSM did a great job of hiding it from you. pic.twitter.com/Q2sIUwba59
