Bette Midler’s made no secret of her hatred of Donald Trump, but you’d think she’d be at least a little better than this at hiding her disgust for some of his supporters:
Look, there are African American men in this shot! How much did he pay them to be “blackground”? pic.twitter.com/pTkoHTIpQl

She’s shameless, so she likely won’t delete that tweet, but just in case:
Uh, wow.
That's rude. https://t.co/MpMQc0IlGF

Not just rude, but … well, you know:
That's racist.

That's pretty racist

Very.
That's quite the racist statement if I've ever heard one. ?

This is absolutely awful for you to say.

Blackground? And the President is racist? The hypocrisy of this tweet is beyond ridiculous. #wow #HypocrisyGameStrong

Why do liberals treat minorities like a monolith? https://t.co/bZz9DoyWM5

This is so belittling towards black men – as if they couldn't have made up their own minds to have a different political perspective from the norm – they must have been paid and told what to do!

Ugh…it isn’t a crime for anyone to support Trump. I don’t, and I wish no one would, but I don’t think it’s very nice to call out POC because they do.
— MaggsThePirate (@MaggsThePirate) July 24, 2019
wow this is a disgusting comment on so many levels? "blackground?" Really? You are really sick, Bette.

But racism’s OK when it’s coming from the Left:
Shame on them. How much money to sell your soul to the devil?

Trust they were definitely paid!

These men belong to a religious cult and are revelling in the attention they’re getting. They’re nuts, plain and simple. It’s people like Candace Owen and Diamond and Silk who do it for the money.

African Americans will definitely not, support Trump because he placed a few Black Props behind him at his rallies. Stayed Woke!

Yeah, stay woke by being a flaming racist! That’ll show Trump!
