Bette Midler has lost her mind. She tweeted out appreciation for the brutal assault that took place against Rand Paul by his neighbor last year! Is she promoting violence? This wouldn’t be the first time. last year, Middler deleted a tweet in which she fantasized about President Trump being stabbed to death.

“I DO NOT promote violence but…”

“Rand Paul says the Kurds are being ‘ingrates’ for taking their frustrations out on US troops.”

“Which is a good reminder for us all to be more grateful for the neighbor who beat the shit out of Rand Paul.”

Senator Paul made a statement on ABC’s Powerhouse Politics that Midler objected to:

“We saved the Kurds from being beheaded and massacred by ISIS. They were able to win with our armament, with our Air Force, and they should be thanking us and throwing rose petals. And so, no, I’m offended by them throwing refuse at our troops. And it shows them to be ingrates.”

Senator Paul is correct and is backed up by the words from our current Secretary of Defense:

U.S. Defense Chief Pushes Back on CNN Political Hack: “We didn’t sign up to fight a war to defend the Kurds from a NATO ally…”

Perhaps Ms. Midler could brush up on what happened when America sent our troops in to help the Kurds destroy ISIS.
