Barbra Streisand, the 81-year-old treasure wasn’t meaning to be a Funny Girl when she said, “Yes, Mr. Trump, let’s make America great again. But first, get one thing straight: America was great – before you were elected.”
The long-time Democratic supporter and fundraiser isn’t shy over expressing her dislike of the former president and has called him “the Liar in Chief, the Groper in Chief.”

In 2018, the EGOT (she holds an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony) released her 36th album, “Walls,” inspired by the reality show star turned President of the United States.
Speaking with Associated Press about the song, she said, “I wanted to talk about the things that were making me feel so sad, heartbroken.” Streisand continues, “I just can’t stand what’s going on. His assault on our democracy, our institutions, our founders – I think we’re in a fight…We’re in a war for the soul of America.”
The Grammy-nominated album – a musical homage to Trump’s tyranny – includes songs like “Don’t Lie to Me,” which Streisand explains was motivated by the news that made her “sick, listening to lies, listening to things that are such craziness.”
“I can’t stand being lied to, and I don’t think the country should be lied to either.” She then quips, “And I just couldn’t comprehend how he could tell all these lies with absolutely no guilt (clearly he’s not Jewish.)”
‘Art is the enemy of tyrants’
Explaining why she’s compelled to be politically involved, Streisand sounds off on the friction between politicians and artists in her 2023 memoir, “My Name is Barbra.”
“Why does it make so many people angry when artists speak out?” Babs asks. “Artists, Streisand said, can serve as ‘a country’s conscience.’ Their work gives us a reflection of the times, and sometimes they challenge us to see what others would prefer to ignore. They can give voice to the voiceless, by speaking up when no one else will.”
She adds, “That’s why art is the enemy of tyrants and dictators.”
Offering her powerful voice unfortunately didn’t sway the voting population.
