You really should watch this:Barbra Streisand Can't Get Trump Out of Her Head. So She Sang About Him

Take a moment. This an incredibly powerful song and done as it were with the images is haunting. Keep these images and song in mind when you head to the polls. VOTE!

………………………………….



Her new album, “Walls,” is a rare instance of politics permeating her music, and in an interview, she could barely stop talking about her least favorite president.

Barbra Streisand has a new album, one that is the musical embodiment of her singular dislike of President Trump, and the rare instance of her political views entering her music. One track already released, “Don’t Lie to Me,” is a direct address to her fellow native New Yorker who now holds the Oval Office.

There are similar messages throughout the album, “Walls,” due on Friday, which also includes a medley of John Lennon’s “Imagine” and Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World.” The title track warns that people now “build them where they shouldn’t be.”
