..............“It’s terrifyingly scary, but it’s funny — but scary,” Streisand told ABC News after receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Tuesday.

The legendary singer and actress said that, as President Obama hung the medal around her neck, she couldn’t help but wonder what a President Trump might say at such a moment.

“I probably would’ve choked,” Streisand told ABC.

It’s possible that her candidate, Clinton, might face Trump in a general election — and that would be “one of the greatest moments in television history,” Streisand said.

“Everybody would watch — I can’t even imagine,” Streisand said, though she expressed confidence Clinton would prevail: “I’m not worried about her.”

Cher and now La Lady Streisand.

And both are mentioning their fear of Trump becoming the Republicans nominee.

I'm convinced, that as Trump gets worse yet more popular among the bigots and racists in this country, Liberals aren't going to try and risk supporting a longshot Democratic candidate for president, but will use common sense in getting behind the Democrat they're convince will make minced meat out of Trump in the G.E.

Happy Gobble-Gobble Day to you and yours, too, pangaia!

In light of your subject line, I thought this would be appropriate as a Thanksgiving Day greeting.

Barbra and Cher. Star power doesn't hurt.

I love both of these women and am so glad that they are so outspoken about their politics!
