Offering her non-apology apology, the actress suggested it was Trump’s fault she shared the fake meme because he “lies” so much; she also spread another lie about Trump in the process of her “apology.”

“The story goes that in a 1998 interview with People Magazine, Donald Trump said he was considering a run for president and would do so as a Republican because ‘They’re the dumbest group of voters in the country. They believe anything on Fox News. I could lie and they’d still eat it up. I bet my numbers would be terrific,” left-wing fact-checking site Politifact outlined, admitting that the meme was “pants on fire” false.

Midler published the fake meme with the caption, “He certainly knew his crowd.”

The tweet went viral, racking up more than 27,000 “likes” and duping allegedly legitimate journalists before the actress deleted the post.

As highlighted by The Wrap reporter Jon Levine, former Gizmodo chief and Columbia Journalism School professor Raju Narisetti captioned Midler’s debunked tweet with, “Dumb and Dumber [GOP].” He, too, has since deleted his tweet.

“I apologize; this quote turns out to be a fake from way back in ’15-16. Don’t know how I missed it, but it sounds SO much like him that I believed it was true!” Midler posted on Monday, adding a link to a fact-check debunking the meme.

An hour later, the actress captioned a tweet regarding Trump’s low approval rating in the U.K.: “This, however, is real. Suck it up, Trumpsters!!!” she wrote, ever so contrite.

“Yes, one must always check the quotes,” she followed up. “That should take up, oh, maybe 23 of the 24 hours in the day? Because there are SO MANY LIES, most of them generated by Trump himself, that the task of separating the truth from the lies is impossible. Which is just how he likes it. #CHAOS.”

Further dumping the blame on Trump, Midler responded to a tweet labeling her fake news tweet “very truthy” with another lie about the president.

“I have to say, [it] sounded so much like ‘All Mexicans are rapists’” she said — though Trump never said this — “and ‘I’m the greatest Predident [sic]’ that I bought it!”

“I think we should investigate who created that tweet! They really captured his tone and his personality! What a textual impersonation!!” she added.

Midler made waves in October when she called women the “n-word of the world” in response then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s forthcoming confirmation.

“Women, are the n-word of the world,” Midler wrote in a tweet she has since deleted. “Raped, beaten, enslaved, married off, worked like dumb animals; denied education and inheritance; enduring the pain and danger of childbirth and life IN SILENCE for THOUSANDS of years[.] They are the most disrespected creatures on earth.”

“I gather I have offended many by my last tweet. ‘Women are the…etc’ is a quote from Yoko Ono from 1972, which I never forgot,” the actress wrote on social media after receiving swift backlash. “It rang true then, and it rings true today, whether you like it or not. This is not about race, this is about the status of women; THEIR HISTORY.”

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?

Fake news is a term referring to false news stories that are distributed by either mainstream or alternative media outlets. Like the CIA-invented term “conspiracy theorist,” fake news is also used as a pejorative by the establishment media and the Deep State to paint anyone not in agreement with officialdom as a scam artist, sensationalist, or domestic terrorist. In effect, fake news is the new Scarlet Letter, employing social ridicule and out-group manipulations to ostracize anyone with information that could be hazardous to the agenda of the Deep State. The reality is that the mainstream media is arguably the worst offender of pushing fake news stories, reference Operation Mocking Bird. The preceding information highlights fake news stories, media bias, or state-sponsored propaganda. With this information in hand, one can develop a comprehension of how information sequestration or reality management takes place, through an exposé of fake news from 2018. It should be noted that fake news is itself a form of propaganda, mind-influencing media for the purpose of satisfying some agenda. Therefore, by understanding the specific nature of any fake news item one can get a glimpse into the agenda and methods of the Deep State.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
