Barbra Streisand Pens Anti-Trump Op-Ed: ‘One-Man Weapon of Mass Destruction’

Singer Barbra Streisand is voicing her disapproval of President Donald Trump in an op-ed

In a op-ed published to Variety, the Grammy award-winning singer didn’t mince words with her opinion of the president. She began with the start of her day revealing her hope each morning she wakes.

“Every morning I wake up, holding my breath while I turn on my phone to see the latest news,” Streisand wrote. “I think to myself, ‘It can’t be worse than yesterday.’ But when the news loads, I think, ‘Ohhhhh, yes, it is worse.'”

Describing Trump as a “one-man weapon of mass destruction,” Streisand went on to discuss the impact she believes he has had on the United States.

“America was great – before you were elected,” she began, later adding, “Since 2016, we’ve been dragged down into the mud of Trump’s swamp. He has demolished our standing in the world with his laughable boasts and breathtaking ignorance.”

Streisand continued, “He has put the security of this country, and our planet, in a precarious position by abandoning the Paris climate accord and the Iran nuclear deal. He’s a one-man weapon of mass destruction … so reckless that he almost started a war.”

Streisand went on to discuss the coronavirus. The potential pandemic is currently an issue in multiple countries.

Over the course of the last week, cases have also been reported in the United States as the Trump administration works to put a definitive plan in motion to combat the virus.

“Now we’re facing another kind of war, against the coronavirus. Trump got rid of our pandemic specialist two years ago and has defunded the Centers for Disease Control because he continues to ignore science,” she wrote. “We can’t go on like this. It’s too dangerous.”

Streisand went on to urge Americans to vote because she believes our country “could be extinguished if he’s given another four years.”

“We need to restore the nobility of truth … and only then will America be great again,” she concluded.
