Clinton supporter Streisand sends up Trump with ‘Send In The Clowns’ parody
By Anne Gearan September 10 at 1:39 AM
NEW YORK — Isn’t it rich? Broadway legend and Hillary Clinton supporter Barbra Streisand lampooned maybe-billionaire Donald Trump before a crowd of wealthy Democrats on Friday night, to the tune of “Send In The Clowns.”
Yes, that Broadway classic from 1973 that you now cannot get out of your head (you’re welcome) was repurposed as a gag at a Clinton fundraiser targeting gay donors and featuring Streisand. Clinton spoke and Streisand sang seven songs at the New York eatery Cipriani, part of a blitz of fundraising events organized recently for Clinton as the presidential race tightened.
Unlike most previous fundraising events, this one was opened to Clinton’s traveling press pool for news coverage.
Herewith, the parody lyrics, with apologies to Stephen Sondheim. Extra points if you can name the original musical.
VERSE 1 IS HE THAT RICH? MAYBE HE’S POOR? ’TIL HE REVEALS HIS RETURNS WHO CAN BE SURE? WHO NEEDS THIS CLOWN?

Lets hope voters will listen and be aware.
Otherwise we are in for a long hall.
I have children and grandchildren and I am concerned.
I do believe Donald Trump will do a large part of he has promised.
He is interested in his children’s future.
Barbara Who?
Why was she so mean to her mother?
Well, it worked then, because it made ME gag.
AMEN sister.
I have no idea if this is true:
Why is Hillary fund-raising, and not campaigning?
OK, then Hillary’s song is Holst’s “Mars, Bringer of War” - because she’s going to start one with the Russians. It will be interesting if BS and the rest of the Hollywood/century Left will survive the Russian nukes...not that I care, mind you, but it will be interesting to see if payback really is (as much of) a bitch (as Hillary).
celebrity, not century. Damned phone.
Babs, are you plain stupid? Or is it all an act?? Go to Hell, Ms Streisand. Your act is getting stale...
Streisand is tge quintessential Hollywood elitist. She has few friends.
How about “Yes we have no bananas; we have no bananas today” She could swing her banana nose around while she sings and packs her bags for Australia
ENOUGH with this COMMUNIST!.
Pretty soon, COMMUNISTS are going to have to think very hard about opening up their BIG STUPID MOUTHS, because there will be CONSEQUENCES.
COMMUNISTS OUT OF USA!!!!!!!
