Reacting to the release of the Bob Woodward audio tapes, performer Barbra Streisand fumed.
Taking to Twitter Streisand wrote “Trump knew the virus was airborne and deadly and he was still pretending it would disappear so he didn’t urge masks and social distancing immediately because he wanted to “downplay” it.”
She then asked “How many Americans are now dead because of his deliberate negligence?”

Many of Streisand’s followers agreed with her and replied, sharing her sentiment.
“You called it best Barbra…. a LIAR and the LOWEST of the LOWEST, who doesn’t care about ANYONE or ANYTHING … only his power…”
