Bette Midler Implies Texas Winter Storms Are Divine ‘Payback’ Against Cruz And Cornyn

Actress and singer Bette Midler claimed Wednesday that the devastating winter storms afflicting Texas could be divine retribution for Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and John Cornyn (R-TX) not recognizing that President Joe Biden rightfully won the election.

Responding to a user who claimed Cruz and Cornyn are “the most inept Senators in the country at this point,” Midler responded, “‘Inept’ is the wrong word. ‘Hateful’, ‘Vicious’, ‘Cruel’ might all apply. I feel for the people suffering thru this weather, but #God doesn’t seem to like #TedCruz or #JohnCornyn. These two also never recognized that [Joe Biden] won. If this isn’t payback, I don’t know what is.”
