Barbra Streisand: ‘Doesn’t matter’ if I offend Trump supporters with my music
By Chris Mills Rodrigo - 10/31/18 09:24 AM EDT
American singer Barbra Streisand said "it doesn’t matter" if her new music offends supporters of President Trump in an interview with New York Times released Tuesday.
Streisand discussed her new, politically driven album "Walls," which does not hold back in its criticism.
"I would lie awake at night with Trump’s outrages running through my head, and I had to do another album for Columbia Records, so I thought, why not make an album about what’s on my mind?" she explained.
Asked if she felt that artists had an obligation to be more involved in politics now, Streisand explained that she felt motivated to speak as a person rather than a musician.
"But me in real life is more important than me as the artist," she said. "As a citizen, that’s the role."
Streisand has been a frequent critic of the Trump administration, calling the president “fat egg, sitting on a wall, and one day he’s going to fall off the wall” in an interview with The Guardian earlier in October, alluding to the Humpy Dumpty nursery rhyme.
She has also been a vocal supporter of Democrats ahead of the midterm elections next week.

She did an album based on things in her mind?
I’m surprised something came out.
I KNEW it! So she IS doing it deliberately all this time! (working!)
A beautiful voice coming out of an a**hole.
Is she the one that sang “Second-hand Nose”?
Who is this BS??
Hope she recognizes our right to offend her with our views — because there is no constitutional right to not be offended.
All the more reason NOT to listen to the liberal whack job.

= = =
Albums used to be round, flat, and black with a hole in the middle.
Now I guess they are just assortments of binary bits, in the electronic ether.
Actually, all liberals do not care one bit about the millions of people who voted for DJT and in truth, the more they open their mouths the more we should realize that their hatred is focused more on us than the President. That is because we stopped the final nail in America’s coffin by not voting for their Godess, Hillary Clinton.
Music?
I thought she retired a time or two? Lately she looks like she’s been hit with a real big ugly stick.. She has neither brains or beauty
Awake at night with Trump raging in her head.
HA HA.
Striesand’s music is offensive, period.
Her music doesn’t bother me. I don’t listen to it.
Speaks to the mind set....
Free society: Doesn’t matter who she offends, she only has to reach her audience (the ones who pay). All others can choose to not listen (pay).
Babs’ failing socialist utopia: Doesn’t matter...State sponsored and supported music, forced into the ears of everyone, offended will be shot.
Grow up babs, yer too old to actually believe in all that hippy sh17.

Classic liberal logic.
This broad has made all her money. What the hell does she care.
It’s good to know that the mere thought of Trump prevents her from having a good night’s sleep.
What does she even sound like today? They must have the auto-tune plugged into her ass.
