Conservatives Are Furious With Bette Midler For Tweeting a Naked Picture of Melania Trump

Bette Midler is known to speak quite freely when it comes to talking politics on Twitter.

She has carved out a place for herself on the president’s go-to social media platform as a fierce political heckler, and her latest tweet targeting Melania Trump might be her harshest dig yet.

The actress and singer posted a photo on Wednesday of the now first lady from an infamous British GQ shoot.

In this particular image from 2000, Melania Trump is posing over the pilot seats in the cockpit of her husband’s private jet, wearing a futuristic outfit consisting of a barely-there transparent chain-link dress and metal headpiece.

Honestly, the caption is quite funny, and Melania wasn’t forced to take the photo.

However, conservative Twitter was FURIOUS.

Take a look:

Midler has also angered conservatives with a poem about Melania.

“There once was a girl from Slovenia,” the poem begins, referencing First Lady Melania Trump. Midler goes on to write that Melania avoids all romance situations with her husband, who “plays with his own schizophrenia.”

Conservatives quickly lashed out at Midler:
