The well-known singer and performer
Barbra Streisand reiterated her intention to leave the country in the event
that Donald Trump wins the presidency once more.
The vocal Democrat, who actively
supported Hillary Clinton in 2016, voiced her distaste for living in the nation
under Trump’s presidency in an interview with Stephen Colbert on “The Late
Show.”
When
Colbert questioned Streisand about where she may go if she were to leave, she
casually said, “Probably England, I
like England.”
This
statement is reminiscent to one she made prior to the 2016 election, in which
she declared she would think about moving to Canada or another nation in the
event that Trump won.
Like
a number of other celebrities, Streisand chose to stay in the United States
after the 2016 election, despite her prior promise to depart in the event that
Trump was elected president.
Several
celebrities, including Amy Schumer, Bryan Cranston, and Cher, made comparable
vows yet continued to reside in the nation following Trump’s election.
Trump
has frequently been criticised by Streisand, who has dubbed him the “Liar in Chief” and
the “Groper in Chief.” She
has called Trump “so stupid” and “so ill-informed,” expressing her
profound regret in his “heartbreaking” election
triumph in 2016.
With “Walls,” her album from 2018,
Streisand persisted in her criticism of Trump.
The
sharp lyrics of the song “Don’t Lie
to Me” questioned the falsification of facts and the worldwide fallout
from such activities.
Barbra
Streisand described Trump’s presidency in 2021 as “four years in a black hole,” highlighting the toll that
disinformation has on people, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
She
emphasised the need of honesty and called on leaders to be open and honest,
saying, “Tell people the truth;
they can deal with it.”
Streisand’s
public discourse on politics and societal concerns is shaped by her
uncompromising candour.
