Barbra Streisand Is Sad The GOP Tax Bill Hurts…Actors?

We’re just going to ignore the facts for a second (that’s what liberals do on a daily basis) and pretend that Barbra Streisand knows what she’s talking about.

Someone please explain this tweet to me.

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.

Wait wait wait. Hold up. I thought that liberals WANTED athletes, actors, writers, producers, directors and the rich Hollywood elite to pay their “fair share.” Not to mention that this DOES benefit the middle class. It’s keeping money in our pockets, and that’s a GOOD thing. How is me keeping more of my OWN MONEY hurting you, Barb? Can I call you Barb? I’m calling you Barb.

But back to the whole “this is hurting Hollywood” thing. I mean, WHAT? What planet is she on?

I thought you wanted rich people to pay more? So, pay up.

I would think that if actors,producers, musicians, writer, directors and athletes really care as they say they do they would help the common folk pay their tax bills in these over taxed areas

Did you fail basic mathematics? Surely, Economics 101 was not your strongest course! Stick to singing. #MAGA

Uhhhh, no Barb. Minimum of 80% of America and Middle America will be getting a tax break. pic.twitter.com/xy84gxtEwo

It's only a 'scam' if it affects CELEBRITY/YOU personally. But if everyday Americans are working two jobs to make it cause we're paying for your state tax incentives for fame, well then yes, you would think that you're getting screwed by us for keeping OUR own money.

you're the millionaire, pay your share and leave it alone…

You understand that, Hollywood, actors, directors, producers and professional athletes are NOT, 'middle class'? Right?

If she doesn’t know that…holy mother of DETACHED.

Oh honey. I thought as a liberal you WANTED to pay more.

Maybe ask for the tax cuts at the state and local levels, since federal-level offsets of those are what’s being capped.

Noooo. Barb is just like us! She’s OF THE PEOPLE. She’s just looking out for you.
