Bette Midler is so anti-Trump, it’s spectacular.

Last week, she released an audio track for a covoer of Woody Guthrie’s “All You Fascists (Bound to Lose).”

Now she’s got this video featuring a bunch of stars including her “Beaches” co-star Barbara Hershey, “Cheers” star David Hyde Pierce, plus Shoshanna Bean, Jenifer Lewis, and my old friend, the great Elaine Caswell.

Bette says: “You know I’ve been around a long time, but I have never lived through what we are living through now. The great Woody Guthrie wrote this song many years ago. I changed some of the words to fit our times, and I hope you’ll sing it when you are marching. Because sometimes people, sometimes you just gotta SING OUT!”

So clever and so true! Miss M remains Divine even after all these years!
