We’ve seen her sing, dance and act her socks off, but Bette Midler for US President?
Don’t rule it out. The sassy showbiz legend has gone into meltdown on Twitter over what’s being reported as President Donald Trump’s latest blunder – giving US state secrets to Russia.
Midler asked where all the great White House advisers had gone, naming some of the most celebrated men to have advised presidents in the past, including Clark Clifford and James Baker, and it was all in capitals, just to underline how infuriated she was.
But it was her next tweet that got her followers excited, when she suggested that even she make a better president than Trump.
FYI. Morons “R” Us: Trump revealed highly classified information to Russian foreign minister and ambassador http://wapo.st/2pPSCIo?tid=ss_tw&utm_term=.ffdc432fb55c …
Trump revealed highly classified information to Russian foreign minister and ambassador
The president was boasting of the ‘great intel’ he receives when he discussed intelligence provided by a U.S. partner.

WHERE ARE THE CLARK CLIFFORDS, JIM BAKERS AND BOB STRAUSSES OF THE WORLD? EVEN KARL ROVE? MR TRUMP IS SLOWLY, AND SURELY BURYING HIMSELF.
Honest to God, I’d make a better President than this guy, and I’m about clueless! At least I’d have the good sense not to blab to the enemy!
“I’d totally vote for you”, was the message back to Midler from her fans, with some suggesting she run for office in 2020 with the hashtag #BetonBette.
Honest to God, I’d make a better President than this guy, and I’m about clueless! At least I’d have the good sense not to blab to the enemy!
@BetteMidler I’d trust you w/ the environment & our children’s futures because I know those are two things you deeply care about, among other things!
Midler’s long been a fierce democrat and has made no secret of her disdain for Trump, even blaming his climate change policies for increasing the risk to Australia’s own Great Barrier Reef.
But Trump says critics such as Midler have no reason to be angry. He’s defended his “absolute right” to share information with Russia, taking to Twitter on Tuesday to hit back at people who criticised him for giving information the fight against Islamic State to senior Russian ministers.
As President I wanted to share with Russia (at an openly scheduled W.H. meeting) which I have the absolute right to do, facts pertaining….
…to terrorism and airline flight safety. Humanitarian reasons, plus I want Russia to greatly step up their fight against ISIS & terrorism.
Bette for President! Sounds good to me, Dont worry girl I got your back!!
