Barbra Streisand calls out Trump's tax plan, says Hollywood and others will be 'punished'
Fox News ^ | January 5, 2017

Barbra Streisand took to Twitter on Thursday to share her thoughts about Trump and the GOP’s new tax plan.

The actress, who is known as a frequent critic of the Trump administration, explained that the new tax plan is a trap that is deliberately meant to harm those who live in blue states, athletes, the middle class and Hollywood.

“I don’t think it’s a coincidence that blue states, athletes, actors, writers, producers, and directors will be punished by this scam of a tax bill, where billionaires get billions, and the middle class gets bupkis (practically nothing) – and an eventual tax increase,” Streisand wrote.

I'd like to know how Babs has any clue about the middle class or bupkis. She certainly is so far removed from both.

I sense ‘Projection’ here. It is the M.O. of the Democrat Party to ‘Reward Your Friends and Punish Your Enemies’ when they win.

Punishing Hollywood would be an unexpected bonus.

Hey...Barbra...remember back in the early 70’s when you wanted to have surgery to reduce the size of your nose, and your doctors warned you it might drastically alter your singing voice and resonance....well, you didn’t get your way then, either...did you?

I'm going to crushingly tax athletes, actors, writers, producers, and directors and their mansions, too!
