Streisand rips comrade casnio a new one!

"There’s a narcissistic fraud in the White House. An angry, hollow, vindictive man is running the country. What bottomless emotional need does he have for acclaim? It is hard to know where his rampant narcissism ends and serious mental problems ensue. He lies prodigiously and for no reason except he obviously has an unclear vision of what the truth is."

"The large ego of a small man drives the vindictiveness of his policies. This presidency is all about the perception of “winning” for Trump – no matter the cost to others. He is a president who only enjoys the roar of the crowd at the rallies, and doesn’t want to learn even the basics of federal policy."

"...For all his ranting about fake news and fake media... the truth is, he is the fake president."

in a hotel overnight and who has a house just to keep stuff in (she doesn't live in it) this is something.

The difference is she earned what she has and is a once in a generation talent. Drumpf is merely a privileged con artist.

No one could ever fake a Barbra.

Loved this part as well

While Trump presides over the circus in his mind, his vice president, Mike Pence, is pushing the extreme agenda of the Koch brothers through both the appointments and policies of federal agencies. They have undone environmental, labor and consumer protections. The Education Department is undermining public schools, and now attorneys general from 18 states and DC are suing Betsy DeVos for undoing loan protections for students who were cheated by fraudulent colleges. In fact, many in the cabinet seem dedicated to undoing the historic missions of their agencies. No surprise, since Trump’s financial supporters are getting what they want – deregulation in the guise of preventing necessary public oversight.

'The Donald' is indeed a fake president.

And now, because he is so overwhelmed, he seems to be an empty shell...someone of whom it can be said, "The lights are on, but no one is there."

if he heard it on the fly. Someone would have to define the words with more than two syllables for him.

Way to go! Ms Streisand!
