The singer sparked backlash — and public calls for Disney to fire her from the live-action “Snow White” film — for her reaction to Trump, 78, beating Kamala Harris.
Zegler posted a lengthy Instagram post wishing that the “Celebrity Apprentice” alum and his supporters “never know peace.”
The message, in part, read, “another four years of hatred, leaning us towards a world i do not want to live in. … i am heartbroken for my friends who awoke [in] fear this morning. and i am here with you. to cry, to yell, to hug. to wax poetic on how the left continues to fail us in forging a new path forward.”

In a separate post, Zegler wrote about the “deep, deep sickness” in the United States, slamming Trump voters for their “foolish subscription to a false sense of security, of masculinity, of intelligence, of patriotism, and of humanity.”
She wrote, “It is terrifying the number of people who stand behind what this man preaches.”
