A reminder that people like her, that consider themselves elite, would spit on you given the chance

@BetteMidler

What #JoeManchin, who represents a population smaller than Brooklyn, has done to the rest of America, who wants to move forward, not backward, like his state, is horrible. He sold us out. He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out.

How about Brooklyn does what Brooklyn wants and everyone else does what they want?

These idiots won't and can't accept that people simply have different values than they do. They've spent their whole lives in either LA or NYC and they simply cannot relate to the average person from Georgia or Kansas.

There may come a time when these entitled urbanites are at the mercy of rural folk. I would love nothing more than to watch them wallow in their smug misery

What I can't understand is they blame Manchin and act like he is the only one that voted against it. What about the other Senate members that said no?

And Hollywood is rich, beyond f*cking ignorant, illiterate, and strung out.

Yet, she still keeps her job.

If she said that about blacks or any other democratic targeted minority she would never be heard from again.

That'll definitely persuade Manchin to change his vote.

Bigotry and prejudice is alive and well in America. Thriving actually. Bette Midler is a prime example.

The complete hypocrisy of her saying this while complaining about Trump making comments like these about other places.

I bet she doesn’t even see it

It's not really a secret that the coastal elites, Hollywood, and DC view everyone else as backwards, hillbilly cretins. Sometimes they'll come out and say it directly, most of the time they just look down on you and hope you die.

Still amazes me how out of touch these people are.

Stick it, out of touch folks.

Hollywood has been mocking and bashing the majority of Americans, Christian, Conservative, White people in particular, for decades now. They intersperse their scripts with their contempt for us in literally every story-line of TV/movies.

Decades ago, it started off in more subtle ways but now, it's full force.

The fact that we've got MEN competing in women sports (and winning everything!) and MEN making a fortune on youtube doing make-up tutorials (while gossiping, of course!) and MEN allowed in bathrooms with women and children, just shows you how quickly our entire society has become an open-air insane asylum.
