The award-winning performer, 74, sparked a furor by poking fun at the then-first lady’s accent as she addressed the nation in a televised speech. Midler said she was ‘wrong’ to mock Trump in social media posts she shared while watching the Republican National Convention in August. ‘Making fun of immigrants is never in good taste, especially when said immigrant has made it her mission to assimilate by learning English and embracing American culture,’ another Twitter user wrote Last year, singer-actress Bette Midler apologized after provoking a firestorm by also mocking the then-first lady’s accent. It was regretful and humorless and I apologize.’

‘It wasn’t funny, and it was in poor taste. ‘This morning I made a hasty and stupid joke about the former First Lady,’ Matheson wrote. In response to the backlash ignited by his initial tweet, Matheson deleted the post and then issued an apology. ‘I have just one question,’ wrote one Twitter user. Others hit back at Matheson, calling him a ‘D-list’ actor. ‘Making fun of immigrants is never in good taste, especially when said immigrant has made it her mission to assimilate by learning English and embracing American culture,’ another Twitter user wrote. One Twitter user accused Matheson of tweeting ‘in poor taste.’ Matheson was responding to a news story about First Lady Jill Biden (seen above visiting the Whitman Walker Clinic in Washington, DC, on Friday to highlight support services for cancer patients and caregivers)
