'#Beyoncé has 133 million Instagram followers. More than double the people who voted for Trump. Wouldn't it be amazing if the #BeyHive mobilized to defeat him?' Midler wrote.
Others shared in Hill's sentiment, noting that the majority of black women didn't vote for Trump in the first place, while white women failed to show up to the polls in support of Hillary Clinton."Why, exactly, is that *our* job?

Why, exactly, is that *our* job? Holla at the 52% of your folks who wouldn't support their own. Gather them first, and some of them are in the hive...Despite all the measures women groups took against Trump during the 2016 election, exit polls found 53 percent of white women voted for the real estate mogul while 94 percent of black women and 69 percent of Latinas opted for Clinton.
Over the years, Beyoncé has used her massive platform to encourage fans to exercise their rights by voting. Not to mention she and her husband music mogul Jay-Z publicly endorsed Clinton during the 2016 election. Beyoncé even gave a speech during the former Secretary of State's, telling voters to"think about the future of our daughters, of our sons, and vote for someone who cares about them as much as we do.
Perry also endorsed Clinton, performing at rallies and making appearances on her behalf. Meanwhile, Swift was noticeably silent on all aspects of the 2016 election, although she has recently announced plans to be more civically active come 2020. Wouldn't it be even better if white women stopped expecting Black women to clean up their messes? After all, 53% of y'all are why we're here.While it's unclear how much of an impact Beyoncé or any other celebrity endorsements may have on the upcoming election, Trump seems to be losing the support of women voters.
