Singing and acting icon Barbra Streisand is blaming President Donald Trump for her out-control fixation with eating pancakes covered in maple syrup, leading to her gaining weight. Streisand, a major donor to the Democratic Party who sang at a September 2016 fundraiser for failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, wrote on her blue checkmark verified Twitter account on Saturday about Trump triggering her obsession with eating pancakes.
“Donald Trump is making me gain weight. I start the day with liquids, but after the morning news, I eat pancakes smothered in maple syrup!”
Streisand followed up five minutes later with a statement she was eating more pancakes over Trump’s claim that former President Obama wiretapped Trump Tower during the election.
“Trump just accused Obama of tapping his phones. Seriously crazy times. Time for more pancakes.”

Streisand performed a parody of Send in the Clowns at the Hillary Clinton fundraiser that was rewritten to insult Trump.
According to Wikipedia Streisand has won two Oscars and ten Grammys, among many awards in her decades-long career as a singer and actress.
McClatchy reported last October Streisand has donated nearly $800,000 to the Democratic Party and candidates since 1991.
“Streisand has long been a reliable donor to Democrats. Since 1991, she has contributed at least $791,660 to congressional and presidential candidates, as well as party committees, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.”
