For Americans who think the impeachment hearings have nothing to do with them, think again. Want to leave the door open to a Hitler? A Stalin? A Castro? A Duterte? A Pol Pot? A Putin? An Assad? A Chavez? A Kim Jong Un? A Mussolini? A Mugabe? An Amin? #Trump’s the gateway to that.

In 2017, Midler called Duterte a “murderous dictator” on her Twitter page, in reaction to the President serenading Trump at the Asean Summit gala dinner in Manila.
“Murderous dictator Duterte serenaded Trump with a Filipino love song,” she wrote.

TRIVIA:
detestable
Anything that’s so hateful or disgusting that you can’t bear to think about it is detestable. Many little kids find all green vegetables to be utterly detestable.
It’s pretty common for people to find hate speech detestable, as well as stepping on slugs in bare feet and the pungent smell of garbage. The verb detest means “hate” or “strongly dislike,” and the adjective detestable brings in an element of disgust or offensiveness. The Latin root, detestabilis, means “abominable,” from detestari, “curse or express abhorrence for.”
