Madonna On Reasons Behind Trump's Victory: 'Women Hate Women'

  • 7 years ago
In a recent interview with Billboard, Madonna compared Donald Trump’s election victory to a person’s death in addition to “a ­combination of the heartbreak and betrayal you feel when someone you love more than anything leaves you.”

Madonna continues to speak out against President-elect Donald Trump.
In a recent Billboard interview, the pop star was asked to describe her feelings about the election result.
The piece quotes her as saying, “It felt like someone died. It felt like a ­combination of the heartbreak and betrayal you feel when someone you love more than anything leaves you, and also a death. I feel that way every morning; I wake up and say, ‘Oh, wait, Donald Trump is still the president,’ and it wasn’t a bad dream that I had.” 
Madonna went on to say, “It feels like women betrayed us. The percentage of women who voted for Trump was insanely high.” 
Asked to elaborate, she stated, in part, “Women hate women. That’s what I think it is. Women’s nature is not to support other women. It’s really sad.” 
Madonna actively supported Hillary Clinton during the election, notes the New York Times. 
Since Clinton’s loss, the singer has participated in anti-Trump protests and even blasted the president-elect repeatedly during a recent fundraiser, reports the New York Daily News.
